Game launching but staying on a black screen, crashing when I close it. - renumi - 03-12-2021
I recently downloaded RPCS3 and wanted to use it to play Persona 5. It was working fine yesterday, but launching it today it is no longer working. It did launch the application from the zip I originally downloaded to get RPCS3, which meant I had to reinstall my game, I'm not sure if that could be why I am now facing these issues.
I have attached the logs as the guidelines said to. Also, when I close the game after giving up, I get an error saying the emulator took too long to close and then it stops responding and crashes.
If anyone could help, that would be great. Thank you :)

You're launching RPCS3 from a Temp folder, it's not supposed to work correctly that way
You need to use a permanent directory

Hello, I'm also experiencing similar issues. I am new to RPCS3 and have been playing Persona 5 for more than 1 week without any issues until today. The game launches and the FPS counter does show up in the window but it just stays on a black screen. When I try closing Persona 5 a window pops up saying that stopping the emulator took too long and some threads has probably deadlocked. I have also included Log file following the guideline.
If someone could help me I would be really thankful.

Update your GPU drivers, disable Frame Limiter
If you still experience issues, disable ASync Texture Streaming on settings

I am having the same issue as the folks above but on NCAA football 11. I boot it up and just get a black screen but RPCS3 treats the game as if it is running. Thanks in advance for any insight.
