When SSX freeze does music still play? Do game still work "under image on tv" ?

Thanks for the reply! @kozarovv

The music stops playing, but I'm getting constant freeze sound. :D

And I'm still getting a signal to the TV and I can easily open the Emulators menu and quit the game. Or do you meant something else?

Thanks! :)

So actually I managed to get to the last level of SSX.

1. All in all it worked very well and there haven't been much freezes. It freezes nearly always when you pick up collectible perks or snowflakes in the showoff mode. Either it'll freeze immediately when you pick it up or shortly afterwards. There have been some freezes without collectible perks but they have been pretty rare.

2. I'm now facing again a freeze at the very beginning of the last level. Maybe you could take a look at it @mrjaredbeta? I'd really appreciate it and again nice work for the config, as I could progress now much further in the game. :D

I attached a picture of the freezed level.
Thanks a lot again. :)

So, it seems the game could be in the minor issues/major issues at this point! I think both the perk freeze and the last freeze are probably fixable, but the other more random freezes are a little more doubtful.

Can you provide your memory card image? If you never done it before, easiest way would be to go to any file manager such as multiman/mmcm, find your memory card image in dev_hdd0/savedata/vmc, and copy it to flash drive and send it via computer. With the save file for that last level, it would help a lot!

Yes, good work @mrjaredbeta!

I also think that the status can be changed as you can go now much further than it used to go. :D

Luckily the random freezes are very rare, most of the freezes, I'd say ¾, are connected to the perks or the level / stage itself.
 
can someone answer some doubts that I have?

1-How is it possible that the ps3 can run ps2 games that sony never released officially?

2-How can GTA liberty city stories and Midnight club:street racing HAVE mAJOR ISSUES as iSO if both games are officially a ps2 classic?

1. It's an emulator inside the PS3 firmware. The games on the PSN store are essentially iso files and config files. That's why it can work with other iso files.

2. They have config files associated with them. You can find Liberty City Stories' config file here: http://ps3.aldostools.org/ps2config2.html
Just search the game. Midnight Club's config was not provided by anyone, so we currently don't have the config file for that game. Sony attaches the config files to the Official PS2 Classic release and that's why it works.

So Sony also apply config to the Oficial ps2 classics on PSN?i Though they simple used a different method to run the games.

PS2 Classics from PSN are basically encrypted ISO images of PS2 games executed through the emulator ps2_netemu.
This is a dirty tactic from Sony to sell us our physical games again but in a different format.

As the PS2 emulator is not perfect, Sony applies a CONFIG file to force the emulator execute the game changing some parameters or disabling certain effects of the game to make it play smoother or to bypass some points that crashes the emulator.

This thread is dedicated to fix other PS2 games that don't play with the default settings of ps2_netemu and that were never released as PS2 Classics.
 
Sorry to keep bothering but does anyone know if those games are playable?compatibility list claim either major issues/unplayable.

Commandos Strike Force
Digimon Rumble Arena 2
Tekken Tag Tournament

But I noticed there is a config for those games,Wondered if they work.

1 Most likely yes, with config should be fine.
2 No afaik, random crashes. PCSX2 comment there is totally unrelated.. This is different issue
3 Since issue is speed related, most likely still major issues.
4 Not work even with config, and i have no idea why.
 
Sorry but I have one doubt do anyone have any idea why some games hard crash the console?I tested
Zatch Bell: Mamodo Fury

And the game shut downs my console.

Also is the emulator still being updated,or nah?

Fixes the freezing issues, but unfortunately makes the game run slower. Maybe there is another workaround for this...I guess now game is in major/minor issues category. @Rafaelrios
