Hacking Tales of Phantasia english patched PSX TO PSP woes...

[DJPlace]

i really really would love to try this but i'm having trouble getting it to run on my psp... it keeps giving me a black screen when i load it up i used both pop station and psx2psp with no compression and it still not working for me... any help would be nice.

if yuo did not now
there are 2 English patch for the game, bow
absolute zero
and
the new , Phantasian Productions, one (came out around the 1st of 2013)

when ps1 games are not working right on the psp, ALWAY try the popsloader plugin and try different pops version

Why not just run the GBA version? It runs flawlessly in the GBA's Kai emulator, and is already in English.

that's the problem i am trying to load Phantasian Productions version (since it's new) but i keep getting a black screen and i'm holding R too... and i'm using popsloader also...

The GBA version is considered lackluster because of awful dubbing, sub par translation, etc

Anyway, strange that it freezes on your PSP since it works fine on mine.
What CFW you got installed on your PSP?
How much compression did you use on PSX2PSP?
Compression 1 rarely gives me issues.

using a PS1 emulator
1st make sure you have a good TOP for psx, back-up
patch it
test the patched game on the ps1 emulator


the gba one is ok ,
but
the the ps1 version is better then the snes and gba versions

Because the gba version looks horrible and doesnt have the newer features of the psx version.

To OP try to see if there's a newer version of PSX2PSP or PoPstation available, if you dont have PoPsloader then i suggest you get it and try to use a different emu version.

 

[DJPlace]

it works on my ps1 emulator. and i thought i posted the firmware. but here it is anyway.

6.60 Pro-C

@kupo3000 i used 0 compression. also are you using the new patched version of tales or the old one?

New patched version. Old one works fine as well.
My PSP 3000 also has 6.60 Pro-C. Didn't use popsloader nor have it in my pro duo card.

*Major dun-goofed on my part. The new patched version doesn't work.
Apparently thought that I tested it but didn't.
There's also a newer patch.

i did find one program on the psp to work but i'm not sure if it's worth while to run. i looked at Phantasian Productions fourms and this user posted this

I never got PSX2PSP to work for any of the ps1 games I tried, including ToP.

I used popstation v4.2 for ToP but used the old 3.1 conversion. Didn't choose a specific gamename, just the first one, 007 The World is Not Enough.

5 hours in and no crashes thus far.

yes you run popstation in the psp. i am so not going cut and paste from websites anymore cause it's ticking me off...

Wow. Thanks OP, I didn't know there was a new translation, gonna test this out today, also whats the best screen rez to play in? I usually just play full screen since it covers the whole screen although the graphics will obviously be strectched.

 

[DJPlace]

also i did try the newer patch same thing... i just may give up... and not play it at all... or play the other version of it...

Ok, finally managed to boot the EBOOT made with PSX2PSP by installing a pre-compiled Unofficial popsloader v4g.
In my case I had to use pops 3.52 because certain pops won't work on my PSP 3000 4g CFW 6.60 PRO-C fix3.
Info about popsloader and limits on certain PSP models.

Fudge! I feel like the OP now. I can't get it to run either. I got Final Fantasy VII, and tales of destiny working though.

Did you try googling Unofficial popsloader v4g?
That worked fine on my part.

 

[DJPlace]

what i don't get is the v4 is 5.0mb and v3 is 650mb something... i don't get how small files can work then big files...

sorry for double posting but i don't don't give a damn i got it to work i installed pops loader has kupo3000 said. and choosed 4.01 for an option and it worked so pick that and it will work. i have not tried anything lower but if you do try anything higher it will fail. (which means you will get a black screen)

I assume your PSP is either 1000, 2000 or 3000 3g. That's why pops 4.01 worked.
Anyway it's good to hear that it finally worked on your part.

 

[DJPlace]

yeah it's a 1000 model.
