To access the menu, you actually don't have to hold L and R. You just hold Triangle and press Right on the D-Pad :) Now moving on to more serious matters:
**The rest of this post contains spoilers for Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. If you have not played it, and don't wish to see any spoilers, please refrain from reading ahead**
First of all, I'll say this emulator is coming along pretty nicely. The Minish Cap runs pretty smoothly in most areas on no higher than a frameskip of 2, and I've only run into a couple of problems. The first is pretty minor, as you don't run into it very often, but anytime two light sources collide, theres some kind of graphical glitch on the right side of the collision with the background being warped and some kind of yellow stitch pattern. The major problem I ran into was the Temple of Droplets boss battle, against the Octorok. Everything is fine until the Octorok changes to its second form, where you have to use the Flame Lantern to burn its tail. If you don't have the frameskip at 3 or over, your PSP has a 99% chance of crashing when you use it. At frameskip of 3 it works pretty nicely until the bosses fifth form, where it makes the room pitch black. You're basically forced to use the lantern to see and survive, and even at a frameskip of 15, it will crash no matter what when you have the lantern on. I've seen a few crashes, here they are:

Sorry for the long post, but I figured Exophase might be able to look at these and figure out an extra fix for the emu if he doesn't know about the problem already. Overall, thanks for a great emu, and I'm eagerly awaiting the next release ^__^Quote:
