Skies of Arcadia

[Ryuran]

I'm having trouble with the Echelon version of this game. I just get a black screen after the famous "echelon config screen". I've tried both CPU modes and both video plugins.



My specs:

Athlon XP 2000+
Geforce FX5200 128/64
348 ram

I'm asking for help because the compatibility list says its playable

I have a patched version of the Echelon SOA, and it works fine. Check out the "How to make Skies Of Arcadia playable" thread in the Chankast forums for the SOAPatcher program.

I can also report that the "full" NTSC version works without any crashes. In Chankast it would always display a black screen after exiting a menu, or trying to enter a location from the airship, or getting into a random battle in the Airship. The sound is still off (understandably, this is the first public release after all), and the text is garbled and missing some characters.

Thanks for your help... I'll try it right now
