Jikkyō Oshaberi Parodius - random lockups on level transitions/load points.

Missingno255 opened this issue · 5 comments

Jikkyō Oshaberi Parodius - or by English translated name, Chatting Parodius Live, has random lockup problems on the load points between stages. First encounter was after stage 2 (the high school), and then stages 4 and 5. Possibly reproducible, but it seems to be random and may not happen at all on a first run though of the game.

Did you play on the default settings? No cd speed hack , turbo , etc. ?

AFAIK I didn't touch any of those settings, as I don't know what they do.

Very reproducible and may not happen at all?

If you have a chance, please create a savestate at a spot where it happens often. Otherwise i see no chance to even look at that.

Yeah, I typoed, meant to say "possibly reproduceable", not "very reproduceable". I'll see if I can get a decent save state, I'm not very good at this game.

I just realized that I was on an unstable MiSTer main build at the time. I found that the "problem" wasn't happening at all, after 1 1/2 runs through the game, and past update may have put me back on stable, and probably didn't realize it, until now. So my apologies for the confusion and looking goofy. I shouldn't be reporting stuff breaking from an unstable main (used one to try the N64 core) anyways.
