That's strange 240-185, The Swordcraft games work great for me...I only had a bad jump when trying to load old save states from the last gpsp

looks like 0.9 has become a bit unstable

check if your gba_bios.bin has following checksum: a860e8c0b6d573d191e4ec7db1b1e4f6

here and also check the readme of gpSP. just copy the md5sum.exe in the right directory and use following command: c:\...\...\md5sum gba_bios.bin

Kingdom Hearts - Chain of Memoires works.

When it crashes at the opening movie, load an empty slot, and it will continue.

I was just wondering if anyone can get any off the Bit Generation games to work I tried Dotstream and Dialhex but they failed to work.

Just finished 'testing' my favorite GBA games this week. I have only used the most recent version of gpSP (v 0.9) so I don't know if some of these did or didn't work in previous releases.

All roms were U.S. I'll list the ones that didn't work first. The roms are not at fault since they work fine on my PC-based emulator (VisualBoy Advance). I have a virgin 1.5 firmware PSP...bought it with 1.5 and kept it at 1.5.

I didn't exhaustively test all roms. Just clicked through the intro sequences and played the game for 3-5 minutes, so there may be hang-ups I haven't reached.

I also included the error code from the Shining Soul 2 and Banjo Kazooie crash...the errors looked very similar, but mean nothing to me.

NOT WORKING...YET
Banjo Pilot - Black Screen (can still go to the gpSP menu)
Banjo Kazooie - Intro starts and then PSP goes to blue screen with following info:

Exception - Bus Error (Data)
EPC - 089F7A6C
Cause - 8000001C
Status - 60008613
BadVAddr - 00000000

PSP -Addr2Line -E Target.elf - F -C
0x89F7A6C 0x0 0x8F08A50

Final Fantasy IV - Intro starts and then hangs (at flying ships) and then turns off PSP
Kingdom Hearts - Graphical corruption and then hangs PSP (someone mentioned a fix)
Shining Soul 2 - Sega screen displays and then PSP goes to blue screen with the same info as above except the last hex address is 0x8F0875C

Great List IWantMyMTV, keep updating it, it is really nice to have someone compliling this stuff, since the new emulator came out it is a little tough to know what works great, and what still has problems. Thanks.
