BLUS31064 - Deadly Premonition: The Director's Cut Black Screen After Launch - LewdShroom - 12-20-2020

Hello, yesterday I worked with support on Discord to attempt to solve why Deadly Premonition goes to a black screen after launch but we were unable to find a fix so I'm hoping someone is able to help me here.  Troubleshooting steps that I have already done include:

-reinstalling RPCS3 and installing previous versions of RPCS3 including installing into a new file path.
-reconfigurations mentioned here: https://wiki.rpcs3.net/index.php?title=Deadly_Premonition%3A_The_Director%27s_Cut
-disabled thread scheduler.
-ensured my dump was valid via the PS3 ISO Rebuilder.

Here are my system specs:
CPU - Ryzen 5 3600x 3.8 GHz
GPU - RTX 2060
GPU Driver Version - 460.89
OS - Windows 10 Pro (x64) version 20H2
RAM - 32 GB DDR4 2400MHz

Log files are attached.

Hello, just wondering if anyone had a chance to look at this since I've re-uploaded my logs?

Here is a weird thing too, sometimes I can actually get the game to run if I don't connect the controller, then connect the controller when prompted too. However, I experience issues with the shadows flickering and some of the FMV's not playing. Please advise. Thank you in advance.

Found my fix(es).

1. Updated to the newest build (v. 0.0.13.11469)
2. If that doesn't work, make sure your controller is unplugged before booting the game. Then plug it in when prompted to.
3. Ensure to have your primary monitor is on and your secondary monitor off. If not, do so and power cycle your PC.

Helpful steps:
1. If step 2 above doesn't work, try step 3, then step 2 again.
2. The newest build of RPCS3 may have resolved my issue so make sure to update to v. 0.0.13.11469 or later.
3. Make sure to set your FPS to 30 FPS.
4. I had some minor issues with shaders so I enabled 'Async with Shader Interpreter' which resolved this.
5. Ensure all configurations are met here: https://wiki.rpcs3.net/index.php?title=D...or%27s_Cut

*NOTE* Despite me having a Ryzen CPU I have left, 'Enabled thread scheduler' enabled without any performance issues.

Hope this helps someone sometime!
