Okay, so I obtained both Final Fantasy VII and VIII by some *cough* different means. These are PSN releases. Now, FFVII works perfectly fine. Runs smooth, has all the PSN release options, and is just a joy to play again. Now, my copy of FFVIII, which is also a PSN release, tells me that it can't be started because the data is corrupt. The icon for the game is there, so its not completely corrupt, and the background and game info loads when highlighted. I can provide my source files through PM if desired (because I know linking to game downloads in the topic itself isn't allowed). I'm running 5.50 Prome-2, and I'm just confused as to why this isn't working if FFVII works fine. Is there a way to check eboot files, key.bin files, and/or document files for proper size and quality?

Try this first :-

Go to the recovery menu. Select: Advanced-> Advanced configuration-> GAME plugins (set it to currently: disabled)

Then try again.

Okay, so I made the mistake of deleting this from my computer and memory stick to make room for other stuff. When I went to redownload it I keep getting corrupt copies of the third part. I think I give up. >.< I'll just wait to see if FF9 gets uploaded somewhere. That's the one I haven't played from the PSX era.

You're obviously visiting the wrong sites....and no, don't go to the obvious google search either. That place is like noob/idiot purgatory.

    OS wars are played out
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Try a live image maybe
    , that way it doesn't modify anything on the system, once you reboot everything is back to the way it was
  • lapot2 @ lapot2:
    And I don't want to use Linux simply because it doesn't have the tools and programs I need.Linux is an OS for real men.For those who don't like simple gay sex in Windows, but prefer rough male fucking in the ass after dragging a piano up to the 15th floor
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Sicklyboy, software for live images got discontinued https://www.linuxliveusb.com/en/blog/frontpage
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Nah all OS's can get you gay porn if you're into that
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @Xdqwerty, hm, I'm not familiar with that software, however, a lot of distributions offer a live test environment that they themselves build. No changes will be permanent though so any software you install on it is temporary, and would need to be reinstalled next time you boot the live image. https://www.debian.org/CD/live/

    @K3Nv3,
    no, finding all the drivers for the 12th generation of Intel or running KEIL on Linux is a special genre of porn, there is little of that even on the black Internet.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Alternatively, if you have two flash drives, you could boot an installer on one flash drive, and install it onto the second flash drive. Then you can make permanent changes to the Linux install, but still remove the flash drive to "undo" any changes to the PC
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Sicklyboy, well for some reason I never asked this before but what if someone sees i'm using another OS?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Sicklyboy, and well I have a USB that I mostly use to transfer PS3 games so maybe I could use that
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Steamos is about to be awesome for driver support but it's limited with Debian specific stuff for different archs
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @Xdqwerty, true, I suppose that is a different concern. Depends on if you think you could explain your way out of it (lie), explain that it doesn't change anything on the computer and is only a program that runs from the USB drive (sort of lie). Not that lying is a good idea lol. Also, depends on if you think others would notice it is different. Using KDE Plasma desktop environment (default in Debian) looks not too different from WIndows 10. The file explorer looks very different, but if you're just using other programs like web browsers, it looks similar
  • lapot2 @ lapot2:
    any list of OS is reduced to one Windows as soon as you want to do something serious
  • lapot2 @ lapot2:
    for development and repair of electronics most of the tools are only for Windows
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Yeah os won't really give a huge boost in performance if that's what you're specifically after

    @Sicklyboy, all those Amazon links are storage aren't they
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Close enough to Windows that my parents wouldn't notice, for example (although my parents are probably a little older than yours, I would imagine)
  • lapot2 @ lapot2:
    Plus, in Windows you just ran the installer and it was installed.

  • lapot2 @ lapot2:
    in Linux you first look for software for your version of the OS, then you look for how to install this software, then you look for how to install all the dependencies, and after 4 hours of compilation and installation it turns out that one of the smallest dependencies is not supported by your version of the OS and the program cannot be installed

    And you get an uninstalled program and 146 GB of hard drive space filled with God knows what and where. :rofl2:
