I beleve that game keeps pausing due to file not found.
Attach hle.IoFileMgrForUser debug file Rev2927
Code:
23:26:03 DEBUG hle.IoFileMgrForUser - user_main - hleIoOpen - opening file disc0/PSP_GAME/USRDIR/text.bar
23:26:03 DEBUG hle.IoFileMgrForUser - user_main - hleIoOpen - umd file not found (ok to ignore this message, debug purpose only)
