Majora's Mask Error. microcode settings

[L33tH4x0r]

1st off - fantastic emu job j64:

my prob:
I'm using pJ64 v1.5. When I talk to Romani at the ranch and she'll eventually say "They are coming..." and I get the error:

Unable to detect microcode settings
MicrocodeID $0724ACD1
Rom ZELDA MAJORA'S MASK

amd 1.0ghz
geforce 4 MX 440
640mb ram
Win XP
Legend of Zelda 2 - Majora's Mask (E) [!].z64

//* I believe after she says that, its supposed to go to a cut scene. I've searched the forums, faqs, readmes, chms, tried different self modifying code methods. disabling sound, cheats, dif graphic plugins. older versions of pj64 returned "pi_dma write not in memory" and crashed in the same fashion. I've checked it with goodN64 w/ GoodWindows. Tried 3 different zelda mm roms. all else has failed so I'm posting *//

hmm odd shouldn't happen but you can probably fix it by adding "0724ACD1=9" (without quotes) under "[Microcode Identifiers]" in the RDB (use Notepad) and pressing OK.

After doing that, I now get the same error only the MicrocodeID is $00000000. I did some fooling around with the codes (at my own risk) and I think my problem has something to do with a memory location is trying to be written to unsuccessfully.

Anyone know a cheat so I can just get Epona and get outa there? hehe. hell a save game after that point would work too. ???

oh in that case your game is fucked, reset it.

i did an ingame save and restarted it using that. it works now. dont know what fuxored it but hopefully no one else will come across this.

Maybe you can try with a save state made by an other player afther this fucking and vicious bug

No one can predict when it happens. So it's a general rule to do native saves (in-game). It saves you trouble if it fux0rs again.

I also had that same problem, i was able to get past it by making a savestate a few seconds before it froze restarting the emu, and then loading the save.

For me it says the phrase, then the cutscene starts, I can see the aliens being created and then my game crashes and returns to the desktop directly withouth any warning...
