FFVII Problems - Static on Screen

[Disney26]

I realize its a common problem, but when I fight against any enemy whose attack would normally cause a countdown to display over one of my characters heads, the entire screen gets staticy, turns green, then the game slows down.

Its incredibly annoying. Ive tried almost everything as far as changing the screen size, slowing/speeding up disk load, etc. Obviously these all do nothing.

I originally used POPstation (believe thats what it was, dont exactly remember) to create the iso. Curious if anyone has found that another program works better or if its a problem with 3.40 OE's built in PSP Emu.

Oh, for the record.... I hate the green Dino's in the Jungle and their Stone Stare.....

...Not to mention the Frogs as well...

>_<

The problem is a known issue on 3.40OE.
You have two options:
1. Use popsloader to play it with pops 3.11
2. Use 3.51M33, wich seems to run FF7 perfectly

Wont be able to try out option (2) until later tomorrow, so Ill let everyone know if spells like Stone Stare and Death Sentence still lock up the game.

Hopefully 3.51 will solve these seemingly senseless issues

yeah disney can you update me if it works. thanks.

yah ive had that same problem, now i have a fix thnx, but what about save files? will the game still load them in the new CFW? because ive found sometimes it dont work

[Disney26]

Sorry for the delay, but nevertheless, turns out updating to 3.51 M33 solves all our problems.

So far, Ive tested spells like Death Sentence and Stone Snare. They both work correctly and dont cause lock ups. And as for what Carlitx asked, I havent had any problems loading my saved game files.

Ill update everyone more later (as I get further into the game) and let you know if any other issues arise. For the time being, enjoy one of the best games of all time!

If you need to update to 3.51, here is a great guide posted by The EX:
