Description of the issue:
The game doesn't go on in a scene of the game. It is a boss (?), a darker version of the main protagonist. The music go on but the game don't

How to reproduce the issue:
I saved in the save in a save room in Dark Palace of Waterfalls and I moved on to a room nearby. When I enter it there is a cutscene where a dark smoke moves and became a darker version of the protagonist. I don't know if it helps, but I am in 67,6% of the game, I have the purple, red and blue orbs and svarog statue and white bishop relics.

I searched all nearby rooms, can't get the cutscene you are talking about. Can you post a savestate right before this cutscene begins?

Also, can you try using ee clamping mode "full" or switching to ee interpreter mode before the cutscene? Those who faced similar problems with this game reported these two solutions.

The boss is at 2:30:22 of this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jnal7OwIN2k

I will try these solutions later, as soon as I can. Thanks for the tip

[prafullpcsx2]

I reached the spot after watching the video, setting ee clamping mode to full fixed the hang. :)

[fcocarlos2]

Thank you, I will do this :)

Does it freeze at the end of the cutscene? If so, it might be better to find out what the game is doing before we think about applying a gamefix to the database.

"Does it freeze at the end of the cutscene?"

Yes, it does

[fcocarlos2]

Hi! I am sorry to keep you waiting! The game doesn't freeze anymore with clamping mode in full, ok?

[fcocarlos2]

I tried using emotion engine in interpreter and it is terribly slow! Should I continue to test it?

[lightningterror]

So clamping to full is better than what the wiki states as clamping none ?

[fcocarlos2]

I didn't any change, as far as I can tell, clamping none and clamping full are have the same results.

[refractionpcsx2]

wow, not only did you find an ancient issue to post on, you posted on the official PCSX2 Github, which doesn't provide support for Aether, so GG for that.
