Unexpected PARAM.SFO found in disc directory

What happens if you try to boot the game on the newer version without the game update installed - does it work?

Also, what happens if you try to boot the game on the latest available version - v1.90?

This could be a bug, but I've never seen something like this before.

According to the code, that message isn't an error, just weird data, but if the game is hanging then something should be wrong.

If I install any of the 7 updates for this game, then the game will actually show the loading screen with the spinning arrow. The only issue with this, is it will ALSO hang here indefinitely with the arrow still spinning. In the output log, there is NO error like before regarding the VEHICLELIST.BUNDLE” [1]. Everything is still in green like there shouldn't be any issues, yet obviously there is, requiring me to manually stop the game again.

Also, you mentioned trying the game without a game update installed. That's strange because I 'm certain I didn't have any updates installed for this  game. I specifically uninstalled the updates and verified it was at version 1.00 in RPCS3 before I uploaded the log. I wanted to make sure I was giving you a fresh log for the game.

I will do it again, but what if it continues to show it is still at version 1.40 in the log while still showing it's at version 1.00 on the dashboard of RPCS3? I guess I could provide a picture if it does.

I did uninstall the updates earlier, but I see where I accidentally uploaded the wrong log file which contained the v1.40 update.

Anyhow, I started over and have uploaded two log files: One is v1.00 and the other has the latest v1.90.

v1.00 is the only version that hangs at a black screen, while all the other 7 updates actually show the loading screen with the arrow spinning forever.

And just to recap, all 8 versions, including v1.00 work fine if I'm running any version LOWER than RPCS3 v0.0.18-12921 (2021-10-24).
I can provide a log from an older version of RPCS3 if you think it may help to compare. Just let me know.

Thank you!
