UMD emulator not working

Ok, so I have an iso of DBZ shin budokai, and one of virtual tennis:world tour. I have a 1gb scan disk running on firmware 1.5. I can not how ever get any umd emulator working. I have tried fast loader, umd emulator, genesis emulator. I can get to the umd loader screen and see the isos. however when i click on the iso for dbz, i get the error game could not be started (ffffed3). when i start the game virtual tennis: world tour i get sent back to the start menu. I have umds in, so i tried copy load, system load, and direct load. when i direct load i get to the umd starting, but then it just freezes and does nothing unless your supposed to wait for over 30 minutes for the iso to load. i tried using dev hooker and for both games i just get sent back to the main menu. anyone have any ideas on what im doing wrong?

 

You need to download patches in order to make the ISOs work.
Here's a patch for DBZ. Look about a fourth of the way down the page. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/334952

 

you need mph:http://www.psp-hacks.com/file/348
and the dbz fix:http://www.ps2nfo.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&file=viewarticle&id=845

set umdemulator and set emulation mode to system menu..
press x on dbz
then go to mph and press x and it should start up

 

virtua tennis should work on copy load but if it doesnt try Fastloader 0.7.
Shin budokai needs mph you could use those patches posted by joeva and thirst or

ok, i downloaded the flash files and mph loader, i load it with umd emulator v0.8 and then when i try to load it with mph game loader it goes to the screen that says loading game... but it doenst do anything, i waited for about 10 minutes, still nothing....

 

where did you put the flash files? you mite have a problem with your umd emulator try installing a new one i had problem with umd emulator before

 

ive installed fast loader, umd emulator, both of which dont work. I put my flash files in root folder MPHgameloader which is where i was told to put them by joeva.

 

I found that DBZ works better with UMD Emulator RunUMD edition.

First download UMD Emulator RunUMD edition from here: http://www.psp-hacks.com/file/427

Set it up according to the readme

Download the X folder from here: http://eternal-psp.vze.com/dl.htm (extract the X folder to Drive Letter of PSP:\X\ )

Start UMD Emulator RunUMD edition and set it to "Load RunUMD" mode (instead of direct load or system menu etc.)

Then if you set everything up correctly it will work.

 

I have umd emulator, i have all the required flash files, i have all the umd emulator settings correct, i run the game in system menu, go to mph loader and i get a loading screen that freezes. thats with shin budokai. with virtual tennis i do the same thing and it just resets it. should i remake the iso? and how?

 

Do not remake the ISO. Just follow the instructions I gave in the previous post. You dont need the flash files or MPH Game Loader. The link I gave was for the UMD Emulator [bold]RunUMD edition[/bold], it is not the same as the normal UMD Emulator V.08C. Just follow the instructions in my previous post and you should be fine.

 

Ok, i tried RunUmdediton. and i have all the correct settings i believe. im not sure though. it asks me if i want to extract the files from the umd, and when i do it says file exract error. so i try to just start it and it freezes at the starting screen. what did i do wrong?

 

i think im one step further. my psp doesnt freeze anymore, it just crashes. what do i do?

 

Do you have the X folder (which you can download from here: http://eternal-psp.vze.com/dl.htm ) in the root of your memory stick?

You dont press O, only press X and your game should start.

 

yes, i have the x folder which contains flash files, and its in the root of my memory stick

 

This is what my memory stick looks lik

roots / psp / game
/ iso
/ x / flash1
/ umd emulator

 

i think it is my isos for virtual tennis and dbz, only because i downloaded an iso and it worked fine. with the dbz and tennis i made the iso. so maybe i made them incorrectly. what is the proper way to make an iso, and which programs from the files psp_game and umd data.

 

@vmckid, just donwnload fastloader 7 version from psphacks. it works most iso games perfectly. dont have to go thru lotta process like umdemulator, though both programs are from same author. bye

 

why would u tell him that? fastloader wont play dbz..

 

actually, i used the vcdromx and it was a shit load more confusing than umd gem. thanks though. i got a good iso and umd emulator is still not working. i get error ffffed3 game could not be started when i use system menu , or i get a loading screen with messed up colors if i use load run umd, and the it crashes, and i get a black loading screen with copy load but then it crashes.

 

why u dbl post? i jus realized that what i told u to do in your other post i asked u to do b4...
try a diff iso n make sure u have the flash folders from the fix that i posted a gazillion times
