Using these fixes I can play the game at constant 60 fps with no glitches and with ALL the DLCs enabled.

Fix missing text  / sprites / textures:
  • Use Vulkan renderer
  • Enable Write Color Buffers in GPU settings
  • Use rpcs3-v0.0.8-9540. For me using 0.0.9 versions I get some missing textures.
  • Try delete game caches and recompile PPUs.
Fix infinite loop "Compiling PPU 1 of 4..." after pressing Start in menu:
  • Option 1: In fact this is not an infinite loop. Wait 10 minutes and the game will eventualy load. This will happens only the first time you launch the game when you have DLCs installed, so be patient.
  • Option 2: Use Interpreter (fast) for PPU Decoder instead of LLVM. But perfomance will drop to around 25-40 fps.
Fix game crashing at character select screen:
  1. Go to "\dev_hdd0\game\NPUB30505\USRDIR\dynamic\player".
  2. Move any "**.ppu.sprx" files from each subfolder to the parent "player" folder.
  3. Delete the empty folders in "\dev_hdd0\game\NPUB30505\USRDIR\dynamic\player".
Code:
So it should be like this wihtout any folder:
"\dev_hdd0\game\NPUB30505\USRDIR\dynamic\player\dllalucard.ppu.sprx"
"\dev_hdd0\game\NPUB30505\USRDIR\dynamic\player\dllcharlotte.ppu.sprx"
"\dev_hdd0\game\NPUB30505\USRDIR\dynamic\player\dlljonathan.ppu.sprx"
"\dev_hdd0\game\NPUB30505\USRDIR\dynamic\player\dllshanoa.ppu.sprx"
"\dev_hdd0\game\NPUB30505\USRDIR\dynamic\player\dllsoma.ppu.sprx"

Fix duplicated character DLCs:
  1. Download the dummy file "dllzzzz.ppu.sprx" from https://drive.google.com/file/d/17ZvRQsa...sp=sharing
  2. Place a copy of the file in "\dev_hdd0\game\NPUB30505\USRDIR\dynamic\player"
  3. Go to "\dev_hdd0\game\NPUB30505\USRDIR\dlc"
  4. Place a copy of the file inside each character "dlcNN_player_***" folder and "dll" subfolders.
Code:
For example for the "dlc16_player_fuma":
"\dev_hdd0\game\NPUB30505\USRDIR\dlc\dlc16_player_fuma\dllzzzz.ppu.sprx"
"\dev_hdd0\game\NPUB30505\USRDIR\dlc\dlc16_player_fuma\dll\dllzzzz.ppu.sprx"
"\dev_hdd0\game\NPUB30505\USRDIR\dlc\dlc16_player_fuma\dll\dllplayer\dllzzzz.ppu.sprx"
"\dev_hdd0\game\NPUB30505\USRDIR\dlc\dlc16_player_fuma\dll\dllshot\dllzzzz.ppu.sprx"
