    hay everyone,
    i finished testing just now my 17 games i have put on my USB Flash drive 64gb,
    for completing my compatablty list of which games work in OPL 0.8/0.7.
    this is for my ps2p I'm making (currently)

    anyways,
    i have play tested all 17 games and i found some issues in getting some of the games not booting in OpenPS2 loader 0.9, 0.8 and 0.7.
    they are only 5 games form the 17 total.

    if anyone can help me fix these games somehow to be able to load up to the title screen (past the debug colors i mean)

    i have written down these issue games with their respective ID:


    Castlevania Curse of Darkness - SLUS_211.68 - NTSC-U - OPL 0.9/0.8/0.7 - Gets past debug colors, then freezes at black screen - USB

    Castlevania Lament of Innocence - SLUS_207.33 - NTSC-U - OPL 0.9/0.8/0.7 - Gets past debug colors, then freezes at black screen - USB

    Final Fantasy X - SCES_504.90 - PAL - OPL 0.9/0.8/0.7 - Gets past debug colors, then freezes at black screen - USB

    Final Fantasy X-2 - SLUS_206.72 - NTSC-U - OPL 0.9/0.8/0.7 - Gets past debug colors, then freezes at black screen - USB

    Rurouni Kenshin: Enjou! Kyoto Rinne - SLIPS_256.85 - NTSC-J - OPL 0.9/0.8/0.7 - Gets past debug colors, then freezes at black screen - USB

    More info:

    if this helps the problem solving:

    i defragmented my Usb after pasting the games on it via Analogistics program.

    and if it helps, which modes ( 1 to 8 ) should i enable to get these games to boot past the debug colors?

    i know for sonic unleashed, it doesn't normally boot up, but once you enable Mode 1 and save it in that game's settings, it boots up every time like normal

    what surprises me through is that these 5 games here have trouble booting up,
    but all three KH games (KH I, KH RE chain of memories, and KH II
    all boot up fine in OPL 0.8 )

    so, games that boot up fine in OPL 0.8, which is the latest ver of OPL, then i don't need to use OPL 0.7 for playing these games.

    any help on this issue would be awesome

    thanx

    USB has a low compatibility rate. All of these games work fine from internal HDD, except the kenshin one which i haven't tried.

    yeah, i noticed that these games don't work with any OPL ver.
    i think that is because i had pacthed the iso's that i burnted to dvd with ESR 0.24 packer for mac, so i reriped the iso's from the burnt backups i made and unpacthed the ESR patch.
    cause FF X should work in oil 0.7, so should FF X-2, and the castlevania games.

    now that i have unpatched these games from ESR patch, i'll test them from my usb again in OPL 0.7/0.8/09.1 to see if they now work without the ESR patch which only applies to THe ESR and ESR GUI ELFs to work.

    oaky, i tested the games that i unlatched without ESR this time,
    and they loaded up fine, past the debug colors, no black screen freeze.
    so,it's not that these games don't work in OPL 0.7/0.8/0.9.1, it's that the ESR patch on them prevents them from playing normally, so OPL cannot load these games properly because of the ESR patch preventing it from doing so.

    also usb game compatablty is far better than lower rate, forget internal HDD, usb flash stick FTW
    , like you said. all my games on my usb work perfectly
