Check out the projects page for hot fixes to minor game issues. (ones that don't cause crashes) After a few weeks (or more, depending) we'll release version version 1.1 of the patch. It will include all these fixes plus the crash bug fix. For now though make sure you apply the crash bug fix at the minimum.

Current hot fix rar version 012 - 2/16/10 (Check project page for instructions. You will need to rebuild from scratch if you used hot fix 008 or 009)

PCSX2 information:

I'll try to have someone post the best configuration to play the patched ISO. There are some known issues that occur in PCSX2 but not on a real PS2. When all else fails please inquire the PCSX2 plugin authors for possible fixes.

Debug mode on code:

Below is the debug mode enable patch. It will not be included in the hot fixes or any other version of the patch. You'll have to apply it manually. Must be applied last. (Hot Fix 008 and up will disable the code by default)

Please be advised that doing certain things in debug mode will cause the game to crash, and most if not all occur in the Japanese version too. (So don't report any of them as bugs) Be careful with making party changes and saving, or generally saving at all after using the debug menu.

Putting Bianca and Flora in your party might be fun, but there is a good chance it will crash on principle!

Oh, and please be sure to check party chat often by selecting talk from the main menu. It probably was the lengthy most part of the project.
