FF9 Locking up Mid-FMV.

[spaz_matsui]

Hi, I'm new here. And for my first post heeere's my question...

I recently started playing FF9 on epsxe. After messing with the options for a while i got it to work playing off the CD and an ISO, however every time I get to a certain FMV, the one that plays when the group gets on the airship leaving Dali heading toward Lindblum, the game locks up. Anyone else have this problem, or does anyone know what could possibly fix this? I appreciate any help. Here's some graphics settings if it helps any...

On second thought, I surfed back pages and pages until i found a similar post. I "downgraded" to verison 1.5.2 and it seems to have solved the issue i was having. Sorry for posting a question that has all ready been answered.... though i guarantee you i will be back in the future! hah

considering the specs mentioned above, and a P4 2.66 GHz proccessor, are there any modifications to the graphics options anyone could suggest to improve the performance, for this game, and maybe even others?

Thank you, I appreciate the input.

How about Pete's OpenGL 2.6?
