Re: Purple Screen of Despair
The main one for me was I had it persisting and the only way I got rid of it was to change firmware completely. I was on 5.00 M33-6 and it would never work on it for me, so I reinstalled 5.00 M33-4 and no problems. I even tried reupgrading to M33-6 and same deal so 5.00 M33-4 for me.

Re: Purple Screen of Despair

running 5.00 m-33-6 too... may be that is the problem...

Re: Purple Screen of Despair
The game should start fine most of the time (my tests yesterday gave a purple screen one out of 10 times), there is no direct relation to the firmware as far as I know (I'm on Gen and I sometimes get the purple screen).
In the package there is an other file called alternate.PBP. you can try to swap it with EBOOT.PBP and see if it solves the issue for you.

Unrelated, the purple screen issue appeared way before that and you were just very lucky I thinkleungclj wrote: edit: the last good revision was r1192 (for me) that produce no purple screen

I would try reinstalling 5.00 M33-4. Worked for me and Allstillwell so worth the shot.leungclj wrote:w00t? I have 100% purple screen too?

Re: Purple Screen of Despair
Well the purple screen is really coming and going without any "logical" (at least noticable) reason.
I had the same kind of reflex as you all (thinking maybe it had something to do with some "saved file" within my WTH folder I just changed anything within the game in PSD mode and got rid of the bug in all my attempt)... but in reality it would be just enough to restart wagic to get rid of the PSD, and if not (already happened to me once) you can still try to go through Irshell, or do an Hard-reset... or even just copying anything to your memory stick... that would do the trick, don't ask me why that does not make any sens... but that was more or less the same with the crash at start-up that was coming and going...

Re: Purple Screen of Despair
well... i am using the alteboot.pbp now.... it works (but, whats the difference?)

Re: Purple Screen of Despair
The alternate eboot should be way faster as it compiled with optimizations. So if it works for you, keep it . In my tests it actually increased the risk of Purple screen though.leungclj wrote:well... i am using the alteboot.pbp now.... it works (but, whats the difference?)
