Front Mission 3 freeze during battles
-
Hi,
I'm having a blast playing through Front Mission 3 for the first time in 20 years or so. Problem is, the game keeps freezing during battles. Of course I can save state and return to that, but it is pretty annoying.
Saw another thread on the forum where they installed lr-psx-rearmed from source to solve the problem, but that didn't solve the problem for me. Another post suggested switching off the dynamic recompiler, but that makes it too slow to play.
Configuration for the emulator is all options on default.
Any ideas?
Pi Model or other hardware: 4B
Power Supply used: Official
RetroPie Version Used: 4.8
Built From: Pre made SD Image on RetroPie website
USB Devices connected: none
Controller used: 8bitdo Pro 2
Error messages received: none
Verbose log (if relevant):
Emulator: lr-psx-rearmed -
Are you using only save states to save the game? If yes, try with the ingame save mechanism.If the issue continue you can try with
lr-duckstationpsx emulator , it have better compatibility .You have to install it manually, with the @Darksavior script from this topic: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/32400/lr-duckstation-disappear/15?_=1650130438003 ,or with @ExarKunIv RetroPIe-Extra : https://github.com/Exarkuniv/RetroPie-Extra .

@windg I'm using both save states and game saves.
Reading up on the issue, this seems to be a well-known problem. If you attack a wanzer with the legs blown off, the game will freeze. Workaround is to enable the "skip battle animation" option, and spam the X button when you encounter this scenario. More here: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/250588-front-mission-3/45417638
Haven't tested it yet; thought I would just leave this comment here for future googlers.
