The original issue that OP has is no longer an issue (proof)

will check for this one later

as of now, it still can happen, found the game will freeze after Gotō Matabei intro cutscene

fixed lol

so id say this whole thing is closed for now unless someone can give proof of their dump being valid and the game still crashing assume it crashing because of their dump

Nope it isnt, i have played both game version Digital and Disk and proven both to be fixed, unless theres a regression recently then my report from last time is still true.

Most of the hard crash report i seen on the discord server for this are people with pirated files, because its the same 4 bad files, affecting 1 specific character and 1 specific stage

Heres both report i did on digital and disc version

The issue is 5 Years old and lots changed. I highly doubt it still crashes and back then I managed to complete the game playing other missions anyway.

I assume it's fixed based on the comments and I will close it for now.

Feel free to re-open if anyone else still experiences it again. (Thanks for closing it for me!)

@elad335 After getting out the old Backup Drive for my PS3 dumps and updating to the latest.

I can unfortunately confirm that it still crashes. I managed to get past the initial crash in the menu once but then it crashes shortly after in the stage itself. The weird graphical corruptions seem to be fixed at least.

Image Image

Like @ReLyf47 stated above. This could be a bad dump but given that I don't have his version (NPJB00688) and mine is: BLJM61248 at v01.02 of the game. It could also be specific to my version of the game.

As it stands right now. I cannot guarantee that the dumping method I used 5 years ago was solid and it could just be a "bad dump". I don't have any means to dump NPJB00688 and test so maybe someone who has the exact version as mine with a 100% confirmed good dump, could give it a shot and report back.

TL;DR: The Game is still crashing. (Updated Logs: RPCS3.log.gz)

Whos/Where did you crashed? Ill try replicating when i have time, also probably send your save file to make it as close as possible

ReLyf47 avatar Oct 26 '25 16:10 ReLyf47

@ReLyf47 I hope I did this correctly: BLJM612480.zip (It's a fairly new save I think. Just start the campaign of the selected Character and you're good.)


Also as a side note for the Devs (@elad335).

RPCS3 got super hungry after exiting post-crash and I had to manually kill it in Task Manager after noticing a system slowdown. Any built-in killswitch that was suppose to trigger must have unfortunately failed on my end. Image

used @DannyyyOnGit save file i can guarantee it does not crash in said place

for sanity check i redumped my copy (was necessary anyway since i dont have it dumped) Image and PS3 Disk Dumper says its fine

then loaded ingame Image (Closest thing to a 1:1 shot of the screenshot)

Image And nope i run the game fine

Then we can close this for good I guess. My dump of the game must've been done poorly back then.

Do you know an easy way to check and verify old dumps by any chance? I want to check my existing dumps now and I can't re-dump them anymore.

I will check it out to confirm that it's really not some odd case and a bad dump. After I got the results we'll decide to keep this open or close it for good. Thanks for all the help so far!

DannyyyOnGit avatar Oct 28 '25 02:10 DannyyyOnGit

@ReLyf47 I used both the PkgCheck and Pyird. Only Pyird told me there are some invalid files, which I guess confirms that my dump should be tossed in the dump. Are these expected or really an issue?

DannyyyOnGit avatar Oct 28 '25 19:10 DannyyyOnGit

I got a new dump and it works fine now. People should check their game dump if they run into this specific crash in the future.

Thanks again to @ReLyf47 for the research and help! Also thanks to the RPCS3 team in general for their work!

Closing the issue for good now...
