I've downloded PCSx2-rr in an attempt to TAS some ps2 games despite the volatility of the emulator. However, i can't even seem to get to gameplay! I'm attemping to run Crash Twinsanity. I start the game and after it checks for a memory card, pcsx2 crashes. I believe this is right before a video starts to play. I've added in the patch that skips videos by Nachbrenner, and i've also re-enabled the two "obsolete" patches (this is after just the skip-videos was only enabled). Both attempts have no worked. I cannot get to the Main menu of twinsanity. The game crashes immediately after the memory cards are detected/skipped (i've tried both with and without memory cards enabled). Does anyone know what settings i need to play this game? Or if it's even possible on pcsx2-rr? I can get it to play fine on the regular version of pcsx2.

Emulation of PS2 is so pure! It's not sync-stable and many games are glitching or crashing :’-( I don't even guess how koeprogenitor1 TASed PS2 games! If the game crashes, we have no ability to fix it. Try to TAS it on GC or WII (emulator works better). What about pcsx2-rr: first of all, you shouldn't use any speed hacks. Your framerate should be from 10 to 15 in the limited mode (in CPU option) for a sync-stable run. After you pass 1 level or mission, play you movie and check you progress. If desync happens, you have to repass only 1 mission.
TASing is like making a film: only the best takes are shown in the final movie.

Scratch that, turns out the GC release never made it. I'd still like to try using pcsx-rr. Dolphin clearly won't work on the ps2 iso (and i can't find a GC iso of the game anywhere, despite how incomplete it would be). Has anyone gotten crash twinsanity to work on pcsx2-rr? Which plugins and patches did you use?

First Question (and only one): Which build of PCSX2-rr are you using? (100% Rhetorical) There are 2 versions. Please make sure it's this one (You need to add the files to it). The current issue you're having occurred on the first build of PCSX2-rr not the newer (2010 build) version. For me (when I experimented with PCSX2-rr and Crash Twinsanity a while back) you cannot go mashing past the loading screens as it will cause desync. So if you're going to complain about desync next, there is your answer you have to watch all cutscenes do not skip any less chance of desync. To note with graphics: Anything is fine but there is that rendering bug which I think is still in the latest GPU plugins for the current version.
