Title says it all. I really dont think its a problem with the iso, its during the mako 5 reactor when sephiroth has a flashback of angeal and genesis fighting him, when he swings his sword back, the screen freezes. The audio keeps going for a bit and then completely stops. I can still pause the game, and acess the ppsspp menu, and reload savestates.

Are you starting the PPSSPP in applet mode? Holding down the R trigger, then select (press A) any game title, while continuously holding down R, until homebrew menu screen loads, then launch PPSSPP from homebrew menu. This allows for full RAM access for homebrew/emulators.

Only thing else can i recommend is to tweak the settings in PPSSPP, or try Overclocking the switch itself before starting PPSSPP.
Or possibly try another copy of ISO of same game, maybe a bad dump.

My switch is always overclocked for psp emulation. I think it could be in the settings, i've been digging around online to find which exact ones. If everything fails, is it possible to convert save files to a different region? Im running an english patched japanese iso of the game and if the iso is the problem, idk where i could find another one

Hi, I got the same issue when running Crisis Core from an ISO on a PSP with CFW. Same cutscene too, black screen post cutscene but the pause menu would come up and the game wouldn't continue. When I redownloaded the same ISO onto my PSP, the game continued after the cutscene. While you're not running the game on the same system as me, try that. Hope that helps.

Also, for some in game cutscenes, does dialogue ever just go completely dead for anyone? Like the rest of the audio is fine, just the dialogue cuts out. Any fixes?

sorry for the almost year late reply, but what I ended up doing was take my save from my switch, and play it on PPSSPP on pc past the point where it crashed, and saved again, brought the save back to my switch, and it worked

    That Dell data breach is worse than people probably realize....

    When I worked for Dell we had access to data about military contracts and addresses for high ranking people.

    I personally handled a call from the second highest person at Raytheon. That call bothered me a lot... The guy was nice and smart what bothered me was the way management basically just blew him off instead of going the extra mile to help him.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    In the end that call ended up costing Dell millions in lost contracts with Raytheon, and really the issue could have been solved for like 450 bucks lol

    I always thought that capcom shuffled the games in these collection, but apparently they are all in chronological order, which makes legacy collection 2 worthless
