Game Title: Jade Cocoon
Game ID(s): SLUS_008.54
pSX Version(s): 1.12, 1.13
Um, I haven't beaten the game, but don't blame me; I sorta... lost interest :<
lol I didn't get very far (around 10-11 hours into the game), so I'm not sure if there will be any problems down the line. I did notice two minor things in my short time playing the game, though...
1. After the introduction movie, the following message was shown in the log window:
2. Lookie at the bars for the HP and mana... they extend beyond where they're supposed to be. It's a minor glitch that doesn't affect much, but it just looks annoying while you're playing. When you get attacked, the bar doesn't shrink along with the HP normally. It's rather difficult to explain, so that's as best as I can do with it.
Regarding the information shown in the compatibility list, transparency is no longer an issue in pSX.I think smegforbrain missed one of speedfreak's posts about the game, as he did update it for pSX 1.7 and 1.8. I'm guessing he didn't test the game very thoroughly, though, as he never mentioned the EXP/HP/mana bar weirdness (and it was a problem with those versions of pSX as well). More proof that speed testing = bad [Didn't realize speedfreak tested the PAL version]
I won't make a final judgement call on the game's compatibility with pSX (since I haven't completed it), but as far as I can tell, it worked perfectly (other than those minor things mentioned up above).
Anyhow, that's that. I might pick the game up again some other time, but lack of interest/motivation got to me; the game's story just isn't compelling enough to pull me in

cuebin:read sector out of range ([SOME_NUMBER], max=279300)
where [SOME_NUMBER] is some number higher than max (surprise surprise ). It didn't affect anything, though, as far as I can tell.2.
