Patching w OpenEmu (Mac)

[dinosaur]

Hi friends, it has been a while <3

Since I use Mac, it has always been difficult to play FFH so I dropped off a while ago. But! A friend told me about MultiPatch, which is the PPT-O-Matic for Mac!

I definitely want to get back into playing/ streaming mods but having issues.

I made a reddit post for help (that has more details), posting here to see if anyone has fixes:

I appreciate any help!

I'm not sure if this will fix the issue (might just be the emulator? I'm not sure!), but you could try patching with this instead https://www.marcrobledo.com/RomPatcher.js/ and see if you get something that is playable.

Also welcome back!

[WAIT - I am stuck on the Orbonne Monastery screen, looking into if it is something with CCP]

OMG! That actually worked - thank you thank you! I am so excited!

If you are interested I will be streaming soon <3

It is possible that it's an issue of compatibility between the emulator and CCP. It's known not to play well with certain versions of ePSXe and anything that isn't pSXfin on windows, lord only knows what happens with it on emulators on mac. Good luck though!

Thanks - I appreciate it!

I tried Journey of 5 but did not make it past the PS screen.

The Monster Hack I am actually able to play but the chapel is glitchy.

I still get the .bin 'must not be compressed' error for all patched so maybe that is the root problem.

The chapel thing occurs on a PSP, happened to me too (though not that bad) but seems purely aesthetic.
