RE: CRISIS CORE:FINAL FANTASY VII - ULUS10336 - Lanthro - 07-03-2011
Hello all, first and foremost I want to say nice work thus far. The emulation looks great from all the pics I've seen.
With that, that's all I've got to go by, the pics. I've been through this entire topic and I haven't seen a single bit of info for mac users.
My main question is this: I've followed every suggestion to get picture but to no avail, suggestions? And there is no sonicstage for macintosh, so how do I use that plugin in order to get sound on this? I've read up and down this forum, scoured the net for sonicstage for mac and all I've come up with is this JSymphonic ode to freedom thing that's supposed to be the same thing, but I have no idea how to get it to work with JPCSP as it seems to be a simple double click to open app.
Any Suggestions? Here are my specs just in case:
OS X 10.5.8
2.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4 GB RAM
GeForce8600 GT 256 MB VRAM
As far as everything I've read, and the successes had, what I've done should have worked, but the best I get is either snowy fuzz, glitched textures, and when I actually start the game (as the new game and load game buttons come up) is subtitles. Any help would be appreciated.
RE: CRISIS CORE:FINAL FANTASY VII - ULUS10336 - TenyumeKasumi - 07-03-2011
Well, first of all, I believe SonicStage has to do with the audio, not the video. So if you're getting sound but no video, it's not the fault of SonicStage. You should be paying attention to Media Engine (it's already there, you don't have to download anything... I think). Make sure the option to use Media Engine is selected in the configuration menu. If all you see is static and no video, that should solve the problem. But if your Media Engine IS selected, then just keep playing around with the Video settings. If that doesn't work... Then you'll need someone more well-versed than me to advise you (I'm just speaking from personal experience - then again, my computer runs on Windows).

Yes, I am aware that SonicStage has nothing to do with video. I don't have it, nor do I have sound and the original question still stands: I can't get SonicStage as it's not made for Mac, so how do I get voices and music?
I've tried the things listed above for hours in many combinations but with no success.
Let me be a little more clear:
With no settings selected I get the SquarEnix screen, the 10th Anniversary, screen, then it goes glitchy, like a screen shot of glitched out textures. Fiddling with the video options yields a slower frame rate by about 50% and, on occasion, a "screen shot" of glitchy static. No video, no play, I can get the main menu to start the game, sub titles in game, but no video what-so-ever. With the Media Engine Selected, I get nothing. The best I can get is a black screen that's claiming 1 FPS after fiddling with the video options, but it's locked up and I get nothing and no where.
Another short question, how many of these games have been tested on the Mac Emulator? This and Disidia are all I really want to play and so far I see alot of success on Windows but from personal experience I've got nothin' on Mac.
I've got a Windows computer, but my Mac is my Laptop and I take it places and was hoping to keep all my emulation on the Mac side. It does run Windows, but I'm stubborn, and for the sake of this emulator claiming to run on Mac, I'd love to help test it out in any way shape or form (as far as writing code in Java, my skills aren't even mediocre at best, so I'd make a better test monkey than coder in this instance).
Thanks for the help. I'll try installing it on Windows as well (7 Professional x64) and see what I can drum up there for success. As far as my reading goes, there seem to be some issues with x64 running things too, but not to this caliber.

you need sonicstage for audio playback (bgm) in this games case, and xuggler for voice, video -
might want to make sure the path is set right to the xuggler path (not sure if its included with the buildbots mac build), since i don't have a mac i cant help you much further then that.

I'll try the Xuggler in the morning once I wake back up, thanks for the tip, hopefully that works out and I'll get right back on that.
So, I take it that I'd just have to suffer without sound until either SonicStage is made for Mac or until someone integrates it into the Mac version of jpcsp? Or is there a possible alternative to get sound?
BTW: Installed jpcsp on my windows side with no issue. The .bat for the x64 crashed out right away so I went with the x86 and that one's been golden with a few tweeks to try to make the frame rate over 40. Damn good job on this thing, and I love the launcher. Here's to one day having the same compatibility and functionality on the Mac!
RE: CRISIS COFINAL FANTASY VII - ULUS10336 - Lanthro - 07-04-2011
Well, I tried loading Xuggler and couldn't get it to load using the terminal like it said. I even tried a few work around tricks that I know that usually gets things like this working but to no avail. Any other tips or tricks? Or should I just wait for the emu to be updated to a workable point for this particular game?
RE: CRISIS CORE:FINAL FANTASY VII - ULUS10336 - Vegerunks - 07-04-2011
They're going to try to find a replacement for Sonicstage sooner or later so JPCSP will have integrated sound and we'll be able to play all versions of jpcsp with sound. But atm there is no discovered way for the audio to work without Sonic Stage
RE: CRISIS CORE:FINAL FANTASY VII - ULUS10336 - Lanthro - 07-05-2011
Thanks for all the info and help. I'll be patient and we'll see what can happen by then.
RE: CRISIS CORE:FINAL FANTASY VII - ULUS10336 - kalroxx - 07-06-2011
Hi,
I wonder if anyone else has this problem but i couldnt find it on the pages i read so far.
The Triangle-Menu in the game flickers and i can barely navigate in it. I'm using the settings recommended in the first post and have a Q6600@2,4GhZ and a Geforce 8600GS with 512MB Grafic RAM and 4GB DDR2 RAM installed.
Hope you can help me because i don't want to get a seizure^^
Edit: and im using the newest revision
RE: CRISIS CORE:FINAL FANTASY VII - ULUS10336 - TenyumeKasumi - 07-07-2011
Try changing around the video settings in the config menu and see what works. The settings on the first post are only recommendations and don't necessarily work for all computers.
