Final Fantasy 7 better on 3.02 than 3.03?

Hello!

I just upgraded from 3.02 OE-B to 3.03 OE-A. No problems with the process as usual but when I continued playing FF7 (what I am doing right now on PopStation) I noticed that there are some GFX missing now. For example when a fight starts you don't see the fading out of the area, the screen just freezes and then the fight starts a second later. During the fight the menus flicker now a little, what did not happen in 3.02 OE-B.
I recreated the EBOOT.PBP with the new postation.exe that came with the new cw and tried both, no compression and maximum compression (9) but this didn't fix this.

Other people having the same problem or maybe other new problems (or improvements) with the switch from 3.02 to 3.03?

I've actually had the same problem... However, it isn't Dark_AleX's fault, it's whatever "Improvements" Sony have made to the emulator. However, at least FF7 PAL has alot less glitches now... I'll try flashing the 3.02 pops.prx, and see what happens... Although I suspect it probably won't work.

hey throughsilver psx2psp dose not work on 3.03 oe-a and popstation can go wrong try useing this http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=48136 right click on the iso and open with that pop station

althena77 i have been having the gliches whith ff7 i might even down grade back to 3.02 oe-a (NOT HAPPY WITH THE 3.03 OE-A UPGRADE DARK ALEX)

its not dark_alex's problem, sony makes this ps1 emulator, not him, so be happy with what hes at least done

yea, can i go back down to 3.02oe from my 3.03oe firmwire without it bricking by just putting in the 3.02oe files or do i have to downgrade to 1.5 through recovery and then back up to 3.02oe? plus ive noticed that the graphics on original mode arent as sharp as they were before

Cool, thanks. Is that different to PSX2PSP v.0.7.1, because I got that one this morning.

The result should be in my sig, if the upload worked...

[edit] No, the sig apparently didn't work.

throughsilver: the size of your Hot Shots eboot (aka base.pbp) is radically wrong (way too small, compare to Gold Line's picture). I'd assume getting a proper file will fix your problem.

Regarding the glitches, I had them too in 3.03 OE, and quickly downgraded back. I wonder if a patch could be made for 3.02 OE-B to allow compression without changing the playstation emulator's operation?

Wow, just noticed: that's quite the disparity.

I have been able to play PS1 games on my PSP with it before today's upgrade, though, which is what's so perplexing.

yea i want to downgrade back to 3.02 OE-B , can someone pst up a guild on how to downgrade?

I have heard about FFVII having some missings GFX, but that it also runs faster. Tony Hawk runs correctly now, so I'm happy with 3.03 OE-A.

If you really want to downgrade, just put the 1.5 update EBOOT in a folder named RECOVERY which either goes in GAME or GAME150 (I think it's GAME but I'm not 100% sure.) Next run the update from the recovery menu.
