How to run Kingdom Hearts BBS on JPCSP

[markl1998]

man my jcpsp dontt work normal what i do?!

[pingutino]

@markl1998 Could you describe your problem?



[DeiveEx]

I downloaded the last build of JPCSP(r2456), and made all you said, and it works, a bit slow, but works, but the sound in the cutscenes stops for a second and continue, stops again and continue. It don't affect the gameplay, but is very annoying....

If you can say some way to increase the FPS too, I will be gratefull(I tried the things you said to Sasuke7760878, but appear some black things in the screen...)

[pingutino]

@DeiveEx Which GPU do you have`? If you have Nvidia, try the "shaders".

[animefan035]

when i click run the screen stays grey and nothing happens it loads it but wont run it help

[Sasuke7760878]

Why doe my game shut down when I skip or finish the scene at 10:38?

How do I increase my FPS?

[pingutino]

@Sasuke7760878 Strange. Try changing the "maximum method size" under compiler settings =)

[pingutino]

@pingutino For the speed, try "Only Ge graphics" "Vertex Cache" and "Save GE to texture" under video options.

[ckpsblue96]

make my own iso?

oooh my.

maybe i should buy one 

[ckpsblue96]

wait... where can i download the iso of kh

i know this WILL work

but i dont know where to download the iso

[pingutino]

@ckpsblue96 You can't download the iso because it's illegal. Make your own iso.

[666or999]

The cognitive dissonance of some people is amazing.

[leyitah2]

hi, with sonicstage i have now background sond but it's like faltering (entrecortado) how can i solve that problem? and thnks for the tutorial7

[pingutino]

@leyitah2 this happens the first time when jpcsp is decoding the audio files. Jpcsp is not perfect yet :P

[theundeadheart]

and happy new year XD

[theundeadheart]

hi i did all what u did (and thank you for the video its my best game ever too:D) but when press run it remains blank i waited 2-4-8-20 minutes but that remained about 10 hours like that and nothing may you advice?

thank you.

[pingutino]

@theundeadheart Delete the PGD-folder. Jpcsp/tmp/ULUS10481 (or ULES01441) and try again. Had the same problem xD. Happy new year =)

[Noexistente]

I have to say thank you, cause this is the only tutorial that works for me

At the moment I'm running the game perfectly in JPCSP in x64, i haven't played yet cause I'm testing right now

Just one question, I've installed sonicstage, and now I can see the videos of the game, well as far as i know I can see the opening in the game, but in some parts it's give a decrease of the sound, just 1 second, and normal sound during 5 and then a decrease again, Is it normal¿? Have i done something wrong¿?

[pingutino]

@Noexistente this should be normal because JPCSP isn't perfect yet.

[JudietteSama]

What is Sonic Storage useful for ? :]

[pingutino]

@JudietteSama For sounds/music in videos and for backgroundmusic.

[gigajack]

where did you get your ISO? mine has messed up sound(no music or voice actors just some sound effects) and am having trouble finding a better one :) plz help

[pingutino]

@gigajack You have to buy the UMD and make your own ISO.

[xxxunuser]

@pingutino Making your own ISO, does require any programming skills, except from the usual process of the download?

[pingutino]

@xxxunuser It's very easy if you have a PSP with CFW already (Drag &Drop xD). If you don't have CFW it could be a little bit harder but there are countless tutorials for that.

[ivancho9210]

Hi men great video but i have a little problem .... everything it normal the sound video everything

but i start the new game so it give me to choose the dificult lvl i choose standar then the screen goes black and not goes on mmmmmn please help what do you think it can be ?

xD already try choosing another dificulty lvl but no

[pingutino]

@ivancho9210 Which GPU do you have? Try changing the "maximum method size" under compiler settings.

[Gabitroncangry]

it says when I start the batch file that 'reg' is not recognized.

I downloaded the 32bit JRE but it still doesn't work.

[pingutino]

@Gabitroncangry Try the "JPCSP Launcher"

[rayvyn15]

will the game run if its a patched version?

[pingutino]

@rayvyn15 no.

[michael13849]

i try extracting it to desk top but then it wont open

[TalhatheAddict]

I have a problem; As soon as I click the batch file, The cmd pops up, says running. It opens the main menu of the emulator, but then as soon as I click anything like FILE or something on the top, it crashes. Also, I tried CTRL+O to open a UMD but as soon as I did that, it crashes... Any help?

[pingutino]

@TalhatheAddict Are you using a new version of Java? Try to run Jpcsp with "Jpcsp Launcher".

[TalhatheAddict]

@pingutino I gave up on that computer and move on to the other one I have. It works fine on there. And I updated Java before I downloaded JPCSP. Where can I find the Launcher?

[zarara21]

its still as slow as it was.... ill add a screenshot of my system info maybe theres smthn else wrong.... ill pm it to you

[zarara21]

i did like he vid showed and the game runs but only at 12fps avridge. i have a 64 bit windows and installed the 32bit jpcsp and java.... please help i really want to play this game

[pingutino]

@zarara21 Try the 64bit version of Jpcsp. It mostly depends on your pc.

[leimelson06]

@pingutino help there is still an error on the begining on the first way or entrance to the Bells there is still a black screen or it freeze i tried to make the number 500 or 100 but it is still Freezing help...

[pirlinpinpin]

I tried but it says that i cant play the Kingdom Hearts ;/ My friend tried on its psp, so I guess there is nothing wrong with the UMD image.. any thoughts?

[pingutino]

@pirlinpinpin What does it exactly say? I hope you made your own iso. Otherwise it will not work.

[pirlinpinpin]

@pingutino It starts but when I am about to play the game crashes.

[pingutino]

@pirlinpinpin Where exactly did it crash? Next time before you start the game open the logger (Debug/Tools/Logger/Show Logger) and set it to "INFO". Play until the crash appears and tell me what the logger said.

[GuilleXMimo]

@pingutino i see the intro but i can play the game because when i press a key the game crash, i say the screen will be black

[BTDiLmarinen]

@pingutino How can i play WITHOUT having the game or a physical PSP? I want EVERYTHING to be virtual. Is that possible?

[pingutino]

@BTDiLmarinen How Can you get money without to work? You need a psp!

[BTDiLmarinen]

@pingutino You can get money without work illegally... What makes you think i'm talking different

[leimelson06]

@pingutino help the black screen is still appearing in the beginning help.. you said the newer build should get the Black Screen Gone but not its still appearing... please answer...

[pingutino]

@leimelson06 no panic xD. When does this BS appear? Try changing the "Maximum Method Size" to 500or 100 ;-)

[leimelson06]

@pingutino i know i already try this but on the older build...ill try it again on a new one but someone told me that its only on my game so i get a new one [Patched]. ok trying it..

[SKiiLLeX]

Kannst du mir helfen ?

Ich bekomme es nicht zum Laufen -.-

[pingutino]

@SKiiLLeX Beschreib dein Problem näher =). Bleibt es stecken, startet das Spiel überhaupt, oder startet Jpcsp nicht?

[SKiiLLeX]

@pingutino Hast du Skype ? wenn ja adde mich : inc3pti0n_arts denn erklär ich es dir dort

[SKiiLLeX]

@pingutino Ich habe die iso etc und wenn ich das spiel starte macht es nur ein ordner im TPM oder so Und dann passiert nichts mehr PSP Emu belibt black !

[pingutino]

@SKiiLLeX Nachdem du gestartet hast, musst du 1-2 Minuten warten. In diesem "tmp" Ordner werden Dateien von KHBBS abgelegt( 3 Stück, Größe ca. 200MB) und das kann manchmal dauern. Irgendwann müsste das Spiel dann starten. Dies wird nur einmal ausgeführt (solange die Dateien noch da sind im tmp). Die nächsten Startvorgänge laufen dann direkt =)

[SKiiLLeX]

@pingutino Das problem ist das ich es 30 min laufen lassen habe aber nur eine datei drinne war -.-

[Thetimtim55]

@pingutino kannst du mir auch mal helfen bei mir läd das nur aber kommen tut dar nichts :(

[pingutino]

@Thetimtim55 Wie weit lädt das? Meinst du direkt nachdem du das Spiel ausgewählt hast? Oder bist du schon zum Titelbildschirm gekommen?

[Thetimtim55]

@pingutino ja wenn ich auf load gehe ladet das aber es hört nichtmehr auf also auf jedenfall über 10 min wenn ich dann nochmal den loadbutton knalle sagt er mir error ich soll die console checken ..

[pingutino]

@Thetimtim55 Hast du Java JRE (6 Update 29)? Versuch außerdem mal den Jpcsp Launcher (Schicke dir Link als Nachricht).

[Thetimtim55]

@pingutino ja also hab das jezt runtergeladen funktioniert aber immer noh nicht ,ich erkläre es dir mal näher , also ich drücke bei den spiel auf laden dan erscheint bei den jpcsp (v0.6 1772) ein schwarzer bildschirm (ich drücke aber nichts ) nach 5 minuten warten drücke ich dann wieder (frustriert ) auf load dann erscheint ein fenster mit " kritischer fehler:check console"

[Thetimtim55]

@pingutino und er macht auch nichts in dem tmp ordner

[pingutino]

@Thetimtim55 Benutz den JPCSP Launcher.

[mostwanteddrifta]

@pingutino ich habe auch ein Problem und weiss nicht ob du mir helfen kannst ^^

ich habe von meinem kumpel eine CSO gekriegt. es geht auch alles nur er lädt bei cutscenes und bei der Stelle am Anfang erst keine Ringe und zeigt oben links das missionsziel nicht an :/

ich glaube, aber ich weiß nicht genau, ich habe KH BBS FM englisch gepatcht bekommen

[pingutino]

@mostwanteddrifta Welche Einstellungen benutzt du? Gepatchte Sachen funktionieren nicht so gut mit dem Emulator =(

[mostwanteddrifta]

@pingutino ich habe genau die Einstellungen wie du... dann muss es am Patch liegen. danke für die Antwort! :D

[Misatkun]

hey, can you give me the link of your google style :'D!

PLEAAASE

[pingutino]

@Misatkun Yes, of course xD.

[gabriellenin02]

where you download this iso?

[pingutino]

@gabriellenin02 Downloading is illegal. Buy the game and make your own ISO.

[samuelweiler]

Where can i get the Game in german?

[pingutino]

@samuelweiler Gamestop, Mediamarkt, Saturn, Ebay.



[samuelweiler]

@pingutino Ha ha ha funny. I mean the ISO.

[pingutino]

@samuelweiler This was not a joke. Buy the game -> make an ISO with your PSP -> enjoy playing on your pc.

[SORA870]

I keep getting this. "This game has been encrypted by the software publisher. Such games can't be loaded by Jpcsp. If you don't own the game and a real PSP, there is no way to run this game. Don't ask, we don't support piracy" Sooo....ummm what do I do lol..

[pingutino]

@SORA870 ?? You need the real game. It's illegal to download games.

[SORA870]

@pingutino I do have it, but how do I play it on Jpcsp? O.o Cuz I wanna record some cut scenes and gameplay

[pingutino]

@SORA870 First, you have to make a iso file of your UMD.

[segaspeed999]

is there a way to play kingdom hearts birth by sleep final mix jpn (eng patch)?

[BJRecordians]

the intro music aint working right for me, its laggy even when i installed sonicstage.

do you know whats going on?

[pingutino]

@BJRecordians Maybe your pc is too slow or you use a old version of Jpcsp.

[BJRecordians]

@pingutino well i download jpcsp 2332 yesterday and also, after a few cutscenes sreen goes black and doesnt do anything anymore

[Joshy8632]

I keep getting Critical error see console

[pingutino]

@Joshy8632 did you install JRE? 

[Joshy8632]

@pingutino I got it to work but apparently my computer is too crappy. LOL have to wait until i can upgrade

[leimelson06]

i have one more question about this emulator the Kingdom Heart Works great on my Fast PC but how about this one?

Windows 7 Ultimate

Processor: Intel(R)Pentium(R)Dual CPU E2200 @2.20 GHz

RAM: 1.00 GB (893 MB usable)

System Type: 32-Bit

supposed i copy the KH-BBS and download the latest builds of Jpcsp will it work on this kind of PC?

[pingutino]

@leimelson06 It could work but very slow. Recommended for Jpcsp: 2GB RAM, Dual Core at 2,5GHZ

[leimelson06]

@pingutino hehe its ok.. hope it works..

[markjason0923]

White screen only appears to me

[pingutino]

@markjason0923 Where exactly?



[pingutino]

@iwasherealright Gamestop or Toys'r'us. I don't know where you live but im sure there is a shop for video games. Buy the game, a psp, just connect them with your PC and voila!

[FronkFlo]

if i dont have amps or the game is it possible to do this or can i do it w/o it

[pingutino]

@FronkFlo You need a psp and this game. =)

[idcwatmyusernameiful]

and where can i find the iso?

[pingutino]

@idcwatmyusernameiful In your PSP. Put your UMD in and select UMD as USB DEVICE. Connect your PSP to your PC and just copy the ISO file.

[leimelson06]

@pingutino please can i know your REAL Jpcsp settings because from the view of your Video and my Jpcsp it doesnt meet the graphics or the sound please create a video for your settings that you are using now even a 240p video it is OK for me just create a video

[pingutino]

@leimelson06 Could you tell me your pc-specs? (GPU, CPU, RAM) I have to know this because it depends on your pc which options you are able to use.

[leimelson06]

@pingutino these are my Specs

Processor: AMD Athlon II X2 245 Processor 2.90 GHz

RAM: 2 GB

System Type: 32-Bit

is that good enough to pass through the Problem of me and @karibulEOL the black screen after the opening?please answer or if there's a solution please help

[pingutino]

@leimelson06 Good. The black screen problem should be fixed in the new revisions. Try to load the newest Jpcsp version.

[leimelson06]

hey can anyone help me with Jpcsp i have a same problem as @karibulEOL but the given solution of @pingutino doesnt solve my problem another solution?

[karibulEOL]

can anyone help me? The game starts fine but after the 3th scene it crashes in a white loading screen.

My pc:

Mem: 4 GB

CPU: intel i3 M 730 2.4Ghz

SO: windows 7 64 bits

GRA: AMD radeon HD 6370M

[pingutino]

@karibulEOL This is easy. I had the same problem bro. Set the method size between 500 and 50 (F12 Settings -> Compiler).

[karibulEOL]

@pingutino Thanks, but now the graphics look gross in gameplay

[Markrock97]

I have windows 32 bit and sonic stage and all of the settings are right but my sound lags, can somebody help me? ç__ç

[arosthex]

can anyone help me with my problem?i tried everything but music is not working for me at all. i have sonicstage and all activated, video works fine and also some sounds like when you klick a button or the background melody of the main menu But things like the opening song have no sound .__.

Btw i have win 7 64 bit, but using latest 32 bit version of jpcsp

[pingutino]

@arosthex I have no sound, too. R2287 has sound in videos but you can't pass them. -.- We have to wait for a fix.

[VideosNoOne]

why when i press load and the game file is good but why is my jpcsp still white and when i press run nothuing happens?

[pingutino]

@VideosNoOne Coukd you tell me your computer's specs?

[leimelson06]

@VideosNoOne i know why because you dont have a TMP same problem as me because Jpcsp wont extract TMP for Low Ram Computer try downloading the TMP or use a real PSP to Extract it

[ReilaShepard]

the link doesn't work anymore :(

[pingutino]

@ReilaShepard I think it's a temporary problem. Just wait ;)

[DarkLucario1000]

[TheSuperSaturos]

[pingutino]

@TheSuperSaturos I bought the UMD from Gamestop. Then I used CFW to get the KHBBS file.

[NoctuneCheshire]

hey, I wanna ask something, I've followed all of your instruction yet still I can't play my KH game..;A;'

it always said 'Critical Error: Check Console for details'

I've download and buy 2 other same game, but it was illegal game so my emulator can't play it too...;x;a

pls help me!D'X

[pingutino]

@NoctuneCheshire Did you buy this game or not? =)

[NoctuneCheshire]

@pingutino I bought it at game store near my house..;x;

and also download it twice but from different sources...X'(

[pingutino]

@NoctuneCheshire Make your own ISO. I'am sure it will work.

[NoctuneCheshire]

@pingutino hng, okay, I'll try, thankies!!XD

[GBeastEX]

When I try to download the Jpcpsp, it says "Windows cannot find this program." Help?

[pingutino]

@GBeastEX Strange... I don't know what you can do =(.

[ShreddinThrash]

Hey man, just followed your tutorial and finally got the game working. Thanks for the sonicstage advice too. But the audio/emulator glitches and skips about every 3 seconds and its annoying me. Any idea how to fix this?

[pingutino]

@ShreddinThrash I have no idea how to fix it =( . You have to ask this in the official JPCSP Forum (Emunewz.net).

[Ryzuh]

it says i need patch files plz help

[pingutino]

@Ryzuh You are an illegal downloader.

[OmniNigger]

where did u get ur kh bbs iso from?

link me plz

[pingutino]

@OmniNigger From my UMD.

@FoxXtrot813 Are you using 64bit?

[FoxXtrot813]

@pingutino Both 32 and 64bit...

[pingutino]

@FoxXtrot813 Use 32bit even if you have a 64Bit PC.

[FoxXtrot813]

@pingutino even in 32bit gives error

[pingutino]

@FoxXtrot813 If you have Xuggler installed just uninstall it. Disable everything in the "Media" Tab

[n0itceff4]

I just followed just like your tutorial , but I got notice , it says ,"patched module 'Prometheus Loader' detected! Patched files are not supported by JPCSP!" and the game won't start , help ><

[pingutino]

@n0itceff4 You are also a "illegal" downloader. You have to buy the game.

[xpetersaur]

how long does it take on average to decrypt cause it's taking forever =.=

[adrastious]

Everything went great, except I get 4 fps on gameplay making it hard to play, although when I turn on the first person view it goes up to 25 fps I only have GE Graphics activated and got an i5 with 128 dedicated video memory (intel hd graphics) any suggestions please?

[pingutino]

@adrastious It depends on your graphics. Intel HD is not very good =(. Only thing you can do is to upgrade your GPU.

[Spartan117167]

@adrastious we have the same problem

[FriginHavoc]

United States isn't on the country selection list... T_T' ??? I'm confuzled in so many ways right now.

[narutostar34]

what are u using? is that 7zip or winzip?

[pingutino]

@narutostar34 Winrar. It doesn't matter which one ;)

[IPITYTHEFOOLZ]

Thanks for the help!

[hoobla427]

where did you get the BBS ISO?

[pingutino]

@hoobla427 From my PSP. You need CFW. You have to put your UMD in and change the option "USB DEVICE" to "UMD DISC". Now connect your PC with your PSP and now you should be able to see the ISO-file.

[SmashLikeFlash]

Okay i got the sound working (it was a really stupid problem) but i still can't hear some music like in the opening menu, and sometimes it's laggy and choppy..

also, now when i finish watching the videos at the beginning and supposed to gain control and start playing, instead i can't move or see the character.

sorry for the bad grammer, i hope you will understand :)

[pingutino]

@SmashLikeFlash Which graphics card do you have?

[SmashLikeFlash]

@pingutino

ATI Radeon 4870

[pingutino]

@SmashLikeFlash Use "Only GE graphics". Let the rest default.

[SmashLikeFlash]

Hi i've installed SonicStage and configured the JPCSP like in the video but i still get no sound, i don't really understand what i'm supposed to do with the sonicstage, it's installed but maybe i need to tick a box in there or something too? because it didn't give me sound at all (i couldn't hear anything before)

thanks alot anyway hope you can help me with the sound but at least it's running properly (=

[pingutino]

@SmashLikeFlash Just install Sonicstage. You don't have to run it or anything. Enable the option "Decode audio files with Sonicstage" in JPCSP under the media tab. Make sure you have no other media players using avcodec-52.dll (just search it in your Pc, jpcsp should be the only one using it).

[SmashLikeFlash]

@pingutino

I've searched my computer and found avcodec-52.dll in another folder so i deleted it but there is still no sound.

[emrXald]

ive downloaded the emulator and extracted my KH:BBS to the the folder but when i run it for the first time the game wont start and ive waited for it about 30 minutes :S plz reply

[pingutino]

@emrXald Try again. It takes some time the first time. I had to try this 2 times until it worked ;-)

[pingutino]

@boosterseat100 Very good specs. But i think Intel graphics are not soo good. Try "Only GE graphics" and "Vertex Cache". Often gives me some Fps ;)

[Zhinzhu]

where do i get the iso?

[pingutino]

@Zhinzhu From your Psp. You need a CFW and the original UMD. =)

[paparovits8]

is this iso clean?

[pingutino]

@paparovits8 I have created this ISO file with my PSP and the original UMD.

[paparovits8]

is this rom clean?? at least this would help

[Axantiu]

Now I sound, but it is really bad = /

[Axantiu]

Hello, I have a problem. I have no sound when I launch the game.

Can you help me?
