Jak 2 and 3 Hangs when saving/loading

[dmeagher101]

Whenever you try to save or load a file in Jak 2 and 3, the game hangs at the save/loading screen and never finishes.

On a real PS3, the game saves successfully and then exits the save dialog.

Hi, I did alot of testing with jak 2. When you save the game the does actually save however it seems to hang on the screen.
Loading games also works not a issue.
The game also has issues with some textures or effects not working as intended.
This means the game is playable and saveable, however I have not completed the game yet.

I finished Jak 2 and Jak 3 on RPCS3 (as I explained in the wiki). Just as explained previously, only the save feature hangs

Yes the auto-save works fine. the game gets stuck when manually trying to save in the start menu only but if you stop the game and restart the save will be there. When you first create your save it's the same it gets stuck but the save will be there upon restarting the game.

I linked my log, the only things i did was starting rpcs3, starting jak and daxter collection, choosing jak2 and i created a new save i waited around 15sec stuck on the "creating save screen" and after that i closed the game and the emulator

I think the game is not receiving a callback to close the menu when it is done saving. I don't know much about it, but after the savedata_op in the ppu syscall usage thread Jak 1 ends its threads with sys_fs_fstat, while Jak 2 has it around 19 lines earlier.

Then again it could be anything, I'm not an expert in these things.

Any news on when it'll actually get fixed it's pretty annoying having to exit the game just to save

[LifeIsStrange]

Just saying that it would be really cool if this bug was fixed
@kd-11 feel free to ignore my request, also thank you for your amazing work, you are a modern hero :)

I'm not so sure this is kd-11's area of expertise, they seem to focus on the RSX emulation and all that relates to it for the emulator. Now this could be something of an RSX readback issue or something, but this seems to relate more towards the VFS(Virtual File System) and how the game doesn't get the message that it is done saving, since saves are perfectly usable after you restart.

yikes

Any update on this? It would be nice to resolve this considering it's a playstation exclusive and hard to come by on a real ps3

[jaybo626]

I doubt it's been updated man been 2yrs for me since I asked and no response

[asp0909]

I don't think they want to fix it

[Asinin3]

Stop spamming and complaining. GitHub is primarily for developers and testers. This is an issue tracker, not a forum. There are hundreds of games out there and only a few active developers on the project. What's stopping you from fixing it? The code is open source. This will get locked if you guys continue only making it worse.
