Hello there! New around here and with a problem as well, so I figured Id hit up the experts (thats you guys).
I recently downloaded Shenmue from emuparadise, unpacked it no problem, burned it no problem (Alcohol 120 is a beautiful thing), and started up disc 1 with (suprise) no problem. I've actually made it quite a ways into disc 1 (almost at the end of it in fact), and everything was going great until, I got the oddest glitch. When returning to Hazuki dojo after meeting Charlie for the first time, the game goes to the loading screen, then stops. I can hear the music for the dojo, and that water sound thats always there but it never leaves the loading screen for the dojo area. I've tried everything.
I turned my DC on it's side, upside down, and still no luck. I even let the game run till Ryu's watch beeped late at night (because it automatically warps you back home). It will only happen after I meet Charlie, I can do anything else, but when I meet Charlie and try to go home, it freezes up.
Has anyone ever heard of this glitch, or work around for it. Should I just re-burn disc 1? Start a new game (sweet jesus no)? Any suggestions and help would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance. And sorry for the length, Im just trying to be thorough.
