can anyone help me out with star ocean???

Is it me, or that's just after the intro sequence, where they blow up a planet, or whatever? If it is, then man, I'm way past that part, and it hasn't crashed. I have tried with SNES9x now, and it goes fine, except there is no background when battling, but it hasn't crashed. I would recommend ZSNES for this one, it seems it emulates Star Ocean better than SNES9x. Download it at http://emulator-zone.com/download.php/emulators/snes/zsnes/zsnesw151.zip. It won't crash.

 

so... i downloaded the game and the new emulator... extracted it and now... i will try to use Star Ocean (J) [T+Eng1.0_DeJap].smc... thanks... ill try to post if something terrible happens again..

 

I seem to remember Dejap and zsnes were active around the same timeframe. I think Dejap used zsnes for testing their work! So I'd be very surprised if Star Ocean caused problems in that emulator.

Have fun with it. Oh, one last thing - when you finally beat the game visit that grassy patch in the Colosseum. You'll know where I mean when you get there. You'll be surprised...

 

What are your specs?

 

you mean my crappy computer specs?

i got it like... 6 or 7 years ago... so its kinda... really really old...

ill post it next time... sorry... T_T

256 mb memory..
pentium 4...
a crappy video card...
and a less crappier sound card...

 

Should still be fast enough. Tried both emulators?

 

i'll try the snes9x later... erm... do i need plugins??

i think i figured out the problems...

after the battle scene... either the sound disappears or it gets messed up...

after a few seconds there... the game freezes...

 

You don't need any plugins or anything. You might need the graphics pack though, tell me if it does indeed need one for Snes9x.

 

well... id like to be prepared or anything later when i go home...

so i can try it with a graphics pack or without it...

mind telling me where i can get those? mmm... google i guess...

 

Yeah. I was just saying, as there's an option to load game's graphics packs for certain games, probably those ones who used more extensive graphics.

 

thanks for the help... i got some answers from dejap forums and ill try to play the game with snes9x...

i didnt find any graphics pack cause links are dead... T_T

 

well... used snes9x and now the game is working perfectly fine...

now i get dizzy from all the playing...

XD

thanks guys...

 

So no graphics pack needed? It probably has one in the ROM. Some games need external graphics packs since they have processors that are hard to emulate, due to compression.

 

Dejap's version does indeed contain a graphics pack in the translation, if memory serves. Those guys were real completionists when they were active.

 

Yeah they also did Bahamut Lagoon, but a crap job, I settled for the real english version of that.
