      Hi all! Was super happy to find an .iso of my favourite childhood game from the ps2 that was for the PSP, so I immediately put it on my Pi 3.

      Upon playing, though, I was heavily disappointed to find that almost ALL graphics were completely black. Not on the menu, not when you're in cutscenes. Just when you're playing in-game.

      I cannot take a picture, but all I know is everything should not be black how it is now. Everything else functions fine. Some objects look just fine, too, like gears, arrows, or buttons. Crash looks fine, too.

      I am using PPSSPP (not lr-ppsspp, latest version from source. ISO works on Windows. This game was on the compatability list for the Pi 3. My Pi is overclocked, but not heavily. It is running with heatsinks (3 of them) and a fan in a case with proper power.

      Thank you.

        Heyho did you try another rom from just another page ? Just built my own Gameboy zero, just use psx but had none of such issues until now. But most of the problems were solved by switching the rom. Do you have a second pi arround ? Not 3 maybe also 1 or 2 so u can mirror your SD card and check on other devices -> so u know if its the pi or the rom ... or the emulator. Gl dude

          I've tried the only two ISOs I could find. I don't think switching to a Pi 2 will make a difference - thing cannot run on there anyhow.

          EDIT: Plus, like I said, the ISO works just fine on PPSSPP for Windows.

              @nummie I had the same issue with the original "Crash Team Racing" for the PSX. To fix it, I changed the PSX settings so the game ran in its native resolution.

              My advice would be to go into the settings of PPSSPP on your PI and make sure your resolution is set to native to see if this would help.

                This is Crash Tag Team Racing for PPSSPP. Thanks, I'll try your settings though. ;)

                  Native resolution yields the same results. I wonder if I need a BIOS for PPSSPP? I don't think I do?

                    @nummie according to the compatibility doc, PPSSPP shows it to be OK and lr-PPSSPP shows issues. Are you sure you are using the right emulator?

                        @celly I am using PPSSPP for sure. I uninstalled lr-PPSSPP

                        @dankcushions isn't this only for lr-PPSSPP?

                          Over at GitHub, they recommended downgrading to a previous version. How can I go back to before 1.6.3 PPSSPP?
