RPCS3 v0.0.21-13504-43d26fa6 Alpha | master
Firmware version: 4.88

CPU: 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i9-11900K @ 3.50GHz | 16 Threads | 31.84 GiB RAM | TSC: 3.504GHz | AVX-512+ | FMA3

OS: Windows, Major: 10, Minor: 0, Build: 19044, Service Pack: none, Compatibility mode: 0

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti

Game title in RPCS3: "Die Simpsons™ - Das Spiel [BLES00146]"

This is the same Simpsons game as "The Simpsons Game [BLES00142]". As in the thread for BLES00142 reported, this game differs by its German localization:
https://forums.rpcs3.net/thread-177492-p...#pid318891

There is a known bug for game pad initialization. This can be solve by re-selecting the game pad device in the RPCS3 controller settings. Or (maybe ?) via the game patch.

Game is playable at constant ~30 FPS with the default RPCS3 settings.

A known issue of this game is the controller/pad initialization at startup (see "Known Issues" in Wiki page).
A patch is available called "Fix pad initialization" - but actually only for the editions with serial number "BLES00142" and "BLUS30065":
   

How can I enforce or help out in anyway to make this patch available for BLES00146?

PS.: I would appreciate to see this patch for BLES00146, because I run RPCS3 via LaunbBox/Big Box on my Emulation PC - which I use only via game pad.
The workaround to switch into RPCS3 main windows to reselect the game pad in the game pad settings - after the game is launched, is inconvenient ... :-)

Thanks in adavance!

I have updated the patches for simpsons after confirming the PPU-Hash matches thanks to your log file.
Open patch manager and update and it should appear and work.

The patch files work for BLES00146 too.

Same issue, can confirm. The entry "Fix pad initialization" is missing after applying the latest game patches update:

   

---
EDIT:

Replacing the red marked section in the patch file "patch.yml" with the code bellow makes the missing entry "Fix pad initialization" visible again:

   

Code:
PPU-cfa4d1b380b8ebfa5acd59fa9378c50e3059865c:
  "Fix pad initialization":
    Games:
      "The Simpsons Game":
        BLES00142: [ 01.00 ]
        BLES00146: [ 01.00 ]
        BLUS30065: [ 01.00 ]
    Author: "nastys"
    Patch Version: 1.0
    Notes: "Fixes pad initialization when using the keyboard handler."
    Patch:
      - [ be32, 0x0044eba0, 0x60000000 ]
  60 FPS:
    Games:
      "The Simpsons Game":
        BLES00142: [ 01.00 ]
        BLES00146: [ 01.00 ]
        BLUS30065: [ 01.00 ]
    Author: illusion
    Patch Version: 1.0
    Patch:
      - [ byte, 0x005b4ebf, 1 ]

The game patches file "patch.yml" is stored in the RPCS3 sub folder called "patches". Example: E:\RPCS3\patches\patch.yml

After pasting this code, the entry "Fix pad initialization" has to be re-checked again RPCS3.


It's just a simple workaround - until the developers provide us corrected new game patches update ... :-)

It was moved to the Canary patches, due to it was super hacky and not making playable because of it
Now you need to add them manually, create a file called "imported_patch.yml" go the wiki page, copy and paste the patch into the file, before to save, put this on the top "Version 1:2", save and then, move the patch to the patches folder in your rpcs3 folder, go the Patch Manager, apply the patch and done
