I tried Final Fantasy 8 and 9 with Popstation but they didn't worked...
I use the PAL (G) Versions of the games of course but I only stuck with a BlackScreen. Only FF7 is working.
I also tried to patch the PAL games to NTSC with Zapper and other programms but they just doesn't work.
Can somebody help me with this problem?
there is away around it but i dunno how yet, i have the same problem!
Firstly ensure you have DA 3.10oea' on your psp then using KingSquitters psx2psp v1.2 create the eboot.pbp again applying only the graphics fixes (not y-pos fixes). As long as you have all the necessary files in place whilst converting your psx image to pbp you place your eboot.pbp in the correct folder on your psp you should have no problems with FF9. Unfortunately FF8 suffers with random freezes for which there is currently no fix. Hope this helps.........
weird, im not help but ive gotten FF7 and FF9 working... didnt try ff8 cuz i heard it has glitches or something.. I use the first popstation that came out for 3.01 or whatever it was.. i dont even compress them cuz thats been giving me problems, and it works fine for me
Well... Maybe thats the problem.Quote:

btw. i use IceTea 1.3^^"
nah, i don't think the problem is the compression as most of my games work, all but ff9 because one disc is baaaad (sadly the first one) and ff8 probably because of some protections. i use the german pal versions as well, but, as said before it won't be the compression causing bugs, we'll probably need a way to pass the protections put up by sony/square.
To bypass the FFIX PAL protection, you must patch it, look here megagames.com, and look for your version. This technique works perfectly for most people with this problem, also if you wish to apply y-fix patch the correct zap config for the Y numbers is 0:4. :DQuote:

nah, the ff9 cd has a few baaaad scratches on it although i don't really know where they came from. i importet it straight from the usa so it ain't pal. the ff8 is a new platinum edition one, which most certainly has that pal protection. i'll try the link you posted and hope it'll work for ff8 at least =)
@dreamwalker
I have these .ppf files... But how can i apply them?
Should i put them in the same directory as the .pbp or what?
Or do you mean this protection fix thingy?
I'll try that protection fix thing at first^^"
btw.
I tried the new patcher from KingSquitter...
But when I convert and 100% is reached i get an error:
"Base.PBP is missing"... Where can I get this^^"
EDIT:
Yay FF8 is working! GREAT ^-^
EDIT²:
Umh... Do someone of you know a good
CD Ripping tool? I use Alcohol120% but it just can't rip my pretty scratched FF7 1 CD^^"
There are to much errors and then it hangs or crashes... Do someone of you know a good
CD ripping tool which can rip scratched CD's?

However if you wish to use a very good all inclusive converter try Zinga Burga's Simple Popstation GUI 3.00beta . This works without the need for extra files. If you prefer KS psx2psp you can always transfer files from ZB GUI to the files folder of psx2psp v1.2.
I do not know of any tools that are particularly good for ripping scratched cd's however as you already own this game you should not feel too bad about searching hard for a "replacement" copy of it on the web. I do not condone piracy of any form :rofl:
