There could be other possible scenarios related to this bug, but currently this is the way how I could reproduce the bug consistently. As soon the game pad is removed the game starts.

(it's assumed that you have webMAN MOD installed)ĥ- Launch any PSP Mini or Remaster (it can be a standalone PKG or mount it with webMAN)Ħ- The game will try to start and stay in a black screen until the PS3 controller is detached. Do not turn on the controller, just leave it connected to the PS3 to charge it when the console is on.ģ- Turn on the PS3 with the power button.Ĥ- Instead of use a PS3 controller, use to navigate the XMB I checked the source code and it seems that the change was only to comment out the code for PSP patches.īefore proceed to test I wanted to be sure that the issue was still present, but for my surprise I couldn't reproduce it with the original stage2.cexĪfter try different scenarios finally I found how to reproduce the bug even with the new stage2.cex (BTW it didn't fix the issue):ġ- Turn off the PS3 and remove all USB devices attachedĢ- Connect a PS3 controller (DualShock 3) with an USB cable (type A-to-type B) to the port USB000.

Open_path /dev_flash/pspemu/release/PEmuCoreLib.sprx <- HERE THE SCREEN STAYS BLACK Open_path /dev_flash/pspemu/release/adhoc_vshlib.sprx Open_path /dev_flash/pspemu/release/pspnet_apctl.sprx The issue happens just before PEmuCoreLib.sprx is patched. This behavior does not happen in Mamba 8.2 So there is not any backup manager is involved. The game is a PSP ISO converted with PSP2PS3.

The screen stays black until the USB cable is disconnected from the controller that is being charged. The game is started with another controller wireless. I'm still getting a black screen on Rebug 4.84.2 Cobra 8.1 starting a PSP Remaster from XMB with one DualShock3 charging in USB01.
