NullDC error

[ReDWiNgEdAnGeL]

Hello, I'm sorta new at this but, if it isn't to much trouble...can I ask you to help me with my NullDC emulator? For some reason when I try playing "Shenmue1.cdi" It crashes on me. THe MS-Dos in the background keeps saying " Error in .\dc\mem\sh4_internal_reg.cpp:ReadMem_area7:572 -> Unknown Read from Area7, addr=1f100008" over and over. It plays for awhile then it freezes when I barley started a new game. I re-downloaded the game AND the emulator many times. So can you see the problem?

 

I'm using the following:

 

Alienware® P2 ALX Chassis with AlienIce™ 3.0 Video Cooling Desktop PC

Dual 768MB NVIDIA® GeForce™ 8800 Ultra Graphics Proccesor

Intel® Core™ 2 Extreme QX6850 3.0GHz 8MB Cache 1333MHz FSB Proccessor

Alienware® Approved NVIDIA nForce 680i SLI Motherboard

320GB (2 x 160GB) Serial ATA 1.5Gb/s 10,000 RPM w/ 2 x 16MB Cache

 

It barely came in today. This stuff is New and state of the art so I shouldn't have any problems. (Paid over $5,000 for this)

It might very well be that nullDC fails to emulate Shenmue properly, or the CD image is corrupt.

 

Just because one has state-of-the-art hardware doesn't mean that everything should work without problems, especially emulators that are nowhere near perfect in what they do.

I can play Shenmue 1 without problems, even saving doesnt make some.

Here my configuration:

 

nullDC v1.0.0 beta 1.6

-NullPVR Plugin

-Image Reader plugin by drk||Raziel & Gigaherz

-nullAICA

-nullDC Joystick (using gamepad)

-nullDC VMU

-nullExtDev

 

options --> nullDC settings:

Enable Dynarec

Enable CP Pass

Cable Type = TV(VBS/Y+S/C)

 

options --> PowerVR

Fullscreen = enabled + 1280x1024

Aspect Ratio = Stretch

Paletted Textures = Dynamic, Full

Sort = Triangle

Modifier Volumes = Normal (if you choose Volumes you will get bad shadows)

 

options --> Aica

sync audio

mute cdda

 

options --> ExtDevice

none

It's probably a bad rip, read errors usually mean that.
