On the other hand, I'm 25 minutes in and it's already frozen...
But at least i only lost 5 minutes worth of work, and now I know to use Snes9x.

I think the only solution here is to wait for a better emulator...but i worry because zsnes hasnt updated for awhile now. Correct if I'm wrong.
Youre way wrong. If you check the zsnes boards, you will notice that an "official" release has not been done in a while, but WIP releases are done very very often. Check www.ipherswipsite.com


Second, a large portion of crashing issues are not the fault of zsnes or snes9x, but the game itself. Star Ocean on the actual snes had many crashing issues that carry over to zsnes and snes9x.

Third, I will just mention that it is evil to quadruple post technically the same message over and over again, and angers mods.

The board was messed up at that time anyway (notice his 0 post count), so it's forgivable. ;)

UGH. KEVMAN ANGRY.

MOD SMASH.

Really, that was a mess. So I don't care.

It was a good thing that PF shut it off when he did, though. I couldn't moderate ANYTHING, and I don't think anyone else could edit his/her posts.

Actually, the board did work, sort of. Make a post, press submit and you would get that error message. So hit back and refresh, and everything was the was it was supposed to be.

I could make posts. Sure.

But editing, locking, etc, didn't work for me at all

I used ZSNES, no savestates or cheats, and used only native saves. No crashes whatsoever. I don't know what your doing wrong.

Stop relying on save states that much and use ingame saves.

Just download the latest WIP or official Zsnes version, the newest Zsnes can run SO without GRAPHIC PACKS.

Edit.- Thanks Agozer, no thanks two cartons of beer.

I just started playing Star Ocean again (it took about two years for me to get un-sick of it enough to actually enjoy it) on ZSNES 1.42, and I noticed that the bug where the music stops, which happened fairly rarely on my old version of ZSNES, now happens pretty much every time the scene changes. I don't really want to go back to the old version which required graphics packs... is there some fix somewhere or am I stuck?

"Use Snes9X"

Seriously, Snes9X plays the game with no errors. :shock:
<Nach> so why don't the two of you get your own room and leave us alone with this stupidity of yours?

Hmm... yeah, but the game seems a lot slower for some reason. Also, I really don't like the key setup (F1 for loading and Shift-F1 for saving confuses me...)

To get the various abilities you have to train their corresponding skills (some require several skills). Hard to believe you genuinely finished the game without even knowing that.

eh, I finished Final Fantasy Tactics Advance without knowing you gain abilities from items you equip.
And I beat FF6 without realizing that Espers can be used to boost stats instead of just learning spells (I did that when I was like, 10 though)
