[shoopdahoop22]

• Shows a black screen with 0.01 FPS
  
• Once it starts, the console is constantly spammed with "·U {PPU[0x1000000] Thread (main_thread) [0x00839bb0]} cellGame TODO: cellDiscGameGetBootDiscInfo", and it goes on forever until I stop the emulator.
  

Modules:

• libfs
  
• libjpgdec
  
• libl10n
  
• libpngdec
  
• libspurs_jq
  
• libsre

Goes further with PR #2390, but seems has broken path issues. Keeps looping

Seems to have made slightly more progress with recent builds, and the FPS counter now reaches 60fps. It doesn't boot yet, unfortunately.

Give it at least one months worth of revisions and I guarantee it will boot.

[shoopdahoop22]

Update: It boots! (But crashes before showing the Insomniac logo :/ )

Auto LLE modules were used.

Please move this thread

Well, this doesn't look very good. This game is "completely fucked" according to cell_juhn:


Looks like the only way we can make this game go any further is to basically rip apart the game's files :/

[shoopdahoop22]

Alright, so if the Null renderer is used, I believe TOD actually goes ingame. However, there's two issues:

1. Null Renderer (obviously) prevents you from seeing anything.

2. This game needs libaudio to boot. Loading it breaks all sound, and nothing can be heard.


That being said, if I press Start and X a little while after booting, the save data prompt comes up, meaning I'm on the title screen. There appears to be no issues related to savedata, so I can proceed onwards, meaning it most likely goes ingame after this point.

I still wouldn't consider it in game since you can't see anything, and thus can't confirm how far it gets.
