Meal Gear Solid 4 freezing when trying to select difficulty

I am trying to emulate Metal Gear Solid 4 [BLUS30109] using this emulator, however, when I try to select difficulty or go into the Virtual Range, the game will freeze but the fps counter on the window will keep changing as if it was running. Snake also has no head in the main menu. The game is up to date (2.00), so is RPCS3, as well as my graphics drivers. This freezing will occur in both opengl and Vulkan. Earlier during the first time I tried to get it to work the game froze and aborted during a compiling shaders screen after installing it, and I don't know if that has something to do with it. My specs are a 4gb Radeon RX 580 GPU, a Ryzen 5 2400g CPU and 8gb ram, as well as windows 10. The menu and everything else runs fine, I just can't seem to get in game. I have also used the tool to see if I'm missing any files, but I'm only missing a demo file that ends in .dat it seems? I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it but any fixes or suggestions? I am also not sure if this is the correct thing to include for the .log file as I am new to this kind of stuff.
