This could be amazing for the JPN version if you did manage to add support! It sounds awesome!
Thanks for all the work man. Just a quick question about the in-game timer bugfix. What exactly is different when you say the timer runs at the proper speed while entering the status screen? I am only concerned with the speedrun side of things and in-game timer changes can be a major issue for us and the history of the game's competitive times on our leaderboards.
So in other words the IGT counts in twice as many increments but still runs at the same speed right? I just need to know that the fix won't cause time to be gained or lost in speedruns compared to the way we have been running the game before this DLL fix.
Oh nevermind, I think I see what you mean. During the 60 FPS in status screen, the IGT ticks 30 times, skipping every other frame instead of ticking 60 times on every frame. That is fine with us as long as the time is the same IGT-wise.
Right now this fix has some issues so please don't use it for speedruns yet guys
So far, my time with this patch has been pretty awesome. Especially the controller support.
A few things I've come across, and I'm not sure how much of it is related to it running in Software mode (I know you've said you're looking into it) or just the game being weird.
It crashes instantly when you exit the elevator that leads to the room where you pick up the battery. - This one I know isn't due to the patch. It always crashes here (Edit: in Software mode) regardless of what I'm running. It has something to do with triggering the hallway outside the elevator because I can load saves from later in the game without issue.
It skips the FMVs automatically, as well. I'm not sure if this is attributed to Software mode or if it's something with the fix.
Configuring the controller with the new support is the best, it just took a minute to figure out what I was changing but I didn't encounter any issues with it. I can't quick shot with a keyboard, because I'm bad, so this is awesome.
So, again, I'm not sure how much of this is actually useful to you, but hopefully it is. I'm still not sure if the FMV problem is due to Software mode or not, but I figured it was worth reporting anyway. I can't wait to see what other magic you work with this!
Edit: For clarity. My game does not actually crash 100% of the time like it seemed to sound like.
We have recently come across the fact that the final time on the timer during the gameplay and the final time on the results screen do not match in the PAL version, with the results screen time being lower by up to 9 seconds based on info we've gathered. Frame counting shows that the timer during ga
