I tried no any issues, maybe your emulator, try to use DuckStation emulator, if you use it try update it, you can use psxfin 1.13 emulator also useful.

I am on Duckstation Emulator and on latest version too, I always update them because most of time I played it a lot due no more fun games on PCs and modern consoles.

Try to leave the place AFTER recruiting Badeaux, you dont have the video leaving the place after recruit him. Recruiting Badeaux is fine, BUT the moment you leave the place or encounter happened, it crashed the game.

PS: I found the major issue that bug-breaking game, it seems that you are not allowed to recruit him during MAIN STORY happened (before defeating Luca Blight) . Only when you are finished the Luca Blight arc and going to Tinto arc that the game will allowed you to recruit him without issue.

No issue with Badeuax.

No issue with recruiting Hix and Tengaar.

This was happened when I get my castle upgraded to level 3 (after beating Kiba and Claus in Major Battle), after I recruit him and get 2 Listening Crystals, it suddenly crashed either leaving the area or enemy encounter. FYI, I get Siegfried after completing the falling of Greenhill script and recruiting Hix and Tengaar afterward.

You can replicate the situation like this OR before recruiting Hix and Tengaar to see where is the main issue of it. It has the same issue like Suikoden 1 : The Last Hope mods too.

PS: I cant upload the video, the file is too large despite it said 3.8 MB but it cant be uploaded

Can you fix the issue with your instant recruit on some characters?? If you recruit Badeaux (castle at level 3), the game totally crashed and cant play anymore due the game was hardcoded to prevent any skippable requirement. Also, some of new teleporation area is crashed a lot and I dont like it at all.

It seems the download problem is fixed.

 

[RageBurner]

Just so you guys know, I'm having problems uploading the .pbp specifically. Not sure what the deal is, sorry.

 

[Vortex92]

next update.

Hi RageBurner
You forget put for PSP on cover.

Fixed that, thanks.

 

[Poemancer]

This is perfect. Thanks. Will absolutely play this one.
By the way if I can suggest...
In the future, please consider adding bugfix patches,
names fixes or retranslations from remastered (only names though, because remaster dialogues are kinda hit or miss),
and a higher difficulty. (Because I think vanilla is a little bit easy one)

Anyway, thanks for the hack.

I'll see about making an eboot version of this one.

Edit: It's been added, but it has poorer overall compression than .7z, so I don't see much point outside of combining multi-disc games more easily.

Why so blue, Riou?

Blue is heroic for the MC!

 

[PierreJG]

I have to give this a try once I have time. Been hectic busy. This in my opinion is the second best RPG ever made for playstation. Only Final Fantasy 7 has a better score but it is hella close. I played this back on playstation one so can't remember game that much, only the start I remember

You can talk to RageBurner.

If it wasn't based of the bugfix version, I'm afraid the bugs keeping me from getting recipe drops and collecting sheep will persists. I know there's a workaround for that, but it's a hassle lmao.

I'll check from time to time if there's new update addressing that.

next update.

For more explanation about the cooking event,
Every time the cooking event you finish it, you have a chance to play it once again with an indefinitely between time to time.
