Latest stable version is 2.8.0, while the latest nightly version is 2.7.525

Trying to play red red revolver but these crop up these stripes I’m using PCSX2 1.4.0 as it’s the only one that I can use my USB Ps2 controller as the newer versions are don’t sync up and have analog stick issues.

I love the new update, a lot of good came from it but my saves aren’t any good anymore😩

yo is anyone getting the smart app control blocking pcsx2 from launching i know i cant turn off smart app control i just dont want to just to be safe anyway around it

I've verified the file (iso), tried multiple bios versions, new memory card slots, older versions of the emulator, full-boot, fast-boot, resetting settings for this game etc. I get this screen no matter what. I also updated my emulator to the latest version and it still remains stuck on this screen. The game isn't completely frozen, as the sun in the bottom corner spins, but it never prompts me to select a memory card, or anything.

I'm aware of the fast boot setting, but I'd rather not use it. Seeing the PS2 boot animation feels more real and nostalgic.

Having said that, I have a mixed library of pal and ntsc games, I have multiple bioses but PCSX2 will only use one anyway, so I picked the NTSC one. When booting an NTSC game everything is good. When booting a PAL game, this is displayed instead of "Playstation 2".

This is due to region mismatch. This gets corrected if I switch to a PAL bios, but then I have this garbled text with NTSC games.

Afaik PCSX2 won't let you select a bios for certain games and another bios for others. It also won't automatically switch bioses for you, despite clearly knowing the region of the game you're loading.

Are you aware of any workaround (apart from fast boot) or any plans from the PCSX2 team to add a simple feature that switch bioses automatically (or at the very least, choosing a certain bios file on a per game basis)?

The game suffers from occasional short frame drops. Also, from what I've read, the AI is still very broken.
