Well, instead of "pissing" on this forum and its members you could begin with a little patience.

Actually, you need to begin with providing some info about the problem, which emulator you're using, version, whatever plugins you have, computer specs and of course whatever measures you've taken to try to solve the problem on your own.

No need make angry I'll test here. take easy here.

I already tried all plugin available, on this website, i tried espxe latest version, 1.52, the game stuck exactly when the battle starts, emurayden crashes in the same place, psxeven, same thing, the battle apear, and then the characters shout, then the music slighttly fades and the game doesnt continue, neither the enemy appear or the battle menu, and about my computer specs i dont think its necessary since i play with no problems, heavy games like chrono cross, final fantasy, so my computer is not the problem..

The latest version of ePSXe is 1.7.

Test the game with the PSX emulator. This emu offers the closest 1:1 Playstation emulation and has no real graphical enhancments to affect the performance of the game. If you experience the same crash using PSX as you've had with ePSXe and PSXeven then the problem is that your ISO or disk is no good.

If you are playing from an original disk, try ripping it to an ISO and play it that way.

If it is a faulty disk image then all you can do is try to source a better one.

For future reference the more information about what emulators you are using, what format the game is in (ISO, original disk etc), and what you've tried so far, and usually what spec PC and Operating system you're running on, the more likely it is that someone will be able to give you support.
Most help posts simply saying 'Game doesn't work/crashes, help please', won't get answered as people can't possibly solve the problem without knowing what emulator and sort of system its running on. So the problem isn't that the forum is no good its more closely that you don't know how to form a proper support request.

The fact that you're getting exactly the same crash on 2 different emulators points to it being a faulty game image or disk rather than the emulator. If it doesn't work with PSX either then you'll need to get a new one.

I think my friend may be your problem with this iso or plugins are configured bad because I tried here and I not have this problem here, the gameplay is perfect.SEE that my setup:

EMU: EPSXE 1.6
Plugin Video: Pete's OpenGL2 Driver 2.8
Plugin sound: P.E.Op.S. DSound Audio Driver 1.9
Plugin CD ROM: epsxe CDR ASPI core 1.5.2
BIOS: SCPH1001

I don't think my question was not well formulated, i was hoping that somebody here would have experienced the same problem, most problems i have i solve just searching here or the internet typing the problem, but anyway, you need to bash the site so the help comes... thanks for the help, you guys probably are right, i think it should be the disc, because i bought the cd, and already ripped an iso, and i have the same problem, i will have to download, because i bought it to prevent me of this trouble, but at the end i should have downloaded.
