Hey guys, new to the RPCS3 forums, been really fascinated on the improvements of this emulator for the PS3 so I decided to give it a shot! But I seem to have hit a wall.

Been messing with RPCS3 for a couple of days now and have tried getting Catherine(USA) to work on it. I ripped the files from my own personal game and followed a couple of tutorials on setting up RPCS3 and the game (including a video specifically on getting Catherine setup, although it was on an older build). I used the start up guide, installed firmware, setup Graphics etc. In my trial and error I also searched the forums for similar issues and couldn't find them with the same description of problems.
 
My specs are:
i7-4770K 
Geforce 750ti
16 gb memory

Below is my boot log, any suggestions and help would be most appreciated!

/dev_hdd0/disc/Catherine PS3/PS3_GAME/

Needs to be

/dev_hdd0/disc/BLUS30428/PS3_GAME/


Make sure you dumped the game correctly using the instructions on Quickstart guide, looks like you copy pasted directly from disc.
