Catherine [BLUS30428]

This thread is about the US disc version "BLUS30428" and that is what was tested, so yes it could matter. Historically the PSN version didn't even boot but I guess the PSN fixes for Demon's Souls helped it...

Maybe it was already mentioned, but surely the game runs stable (and slow) with PPU and SPU interpreters at least?

Yes I have nearly always 30 FPS with no graphics or sounds glitches with PPU and SPU Fast interpreters and DX12, and no freeze at all, but recompilers are laggy and sounds are crackly and sometimes the sounds stop and the game don't load any further screens than the main menu

Must be some really unfortunate sync issue. But at least the game runs at full speed for you regardless

Good news I made a fresh install with the master build 4274 and now it runs very well ingame with Recompiler PPU and SPU :
OpenGL : always 30 FPS but graphical glitches (polygon meshes) perfect sounds
Vulkan : ~20 FPS with perfect graphics perfect sounds
DX12 : always 30 FPS with perfect graphics perfect sounds

GOOD WORK GUYS THANK YOU !
