#P5R (MS/GamePass) crashing after enabling reloaded 2 in the dinput8.ini

So I followed the tutorial on gamebanana pretty much word for word, apart from 2 things:

  1. the fact that I am using the same Reloaded 2 install as I did for P4G (steam ver.) (I made sure no P4 mods were enabled)
  2. I forgot to put the dinput8.ini from the setup files provided initially, I have since replaced it with the correct configuration though

I have attached the SpecialK Crash log file and the Reloaded 2 console boots up so I attached that one too. Another thing worth noting is that if I remove the [Import.Reloaded2] section from the ini file, it boots up just fine with SpecialK enabled.
So far I have tried changing the setting When=Early, this is what it looks like:

[Import.Reloaded-II]
Architecture=x64
Role=ThirdParty
When=Early
Filename=E:\Reloaded 2\Loader\X64\Bootstrapper\Reloaded.Mod.Loader.Bootstrapper.dll

Oh also I have a dumped exe file, I used the Recycle Bin method instead of the UWPDumper

📎 SpecialK.txt 📎 Reloaded__P5R.txt

have you tried reopening P5R an few times, as the XGP version can crash a few times before loading properly

verbal nimbus
wraith grove
#

Ok cool

#

ill give myself that

verbal nimbus
#

and it stopped working again

#

it makes this weird sound when it "crashes"

wraith grove
#

thats reloaded

verbal nimbus
#

ah I see

#

well no idea then

wraith grove
#

id try opening it a few times back to back

#

that worked for me

verbal nimbus
#

alright let me see

#

It ain't working

wraith grove
#

what mods do you have enabled

verbal nimbus
#

I went to try to get some mods installed and it prompted me for an update, gonna try that and see if it works

verbal nimbus
wraith grove
wraith grove
#

are you launching directly from r2?

verbal nimbus
#

like the guide suggested

wraith grove
#

ok

#

maybe try from the exe? shot in the dark

#

should be C:/Xboxgames

verbal nimbus
#

Yeah its on me E: but I'll try that

#

right now I am having issues with Reloaded

wraith grove
verbal nimbus
#

which is making me wonder whether that was the culprit all along

wraith grove
#

could be

verbal nimbus
wraith grove
#

do you have a lot of processes in task manager

#

ik that happens sometimes with steam

verbal nimbus
#

I don't want to lose my Persona 4 modset though, any way to save that?

wraith grove
#

yh

#

go into the mods folder and back it up

verbal nimbus
wraith grove
#

maybe just try a restart tbh

verbal nimbus
wraith grove
#

is it worth reinstalling p5r?

#

or just validating files in Xbox app

verbal nimbus
#

getting this on the completely new Reloaded 2 I downloaded

wraith grove
#

is this in setup, or launching a game

verbal nimbus
#

Its me trying to boot up reloaded 2 again

wraith grove
#

ok

#

id save the mods folder, and delete reloaded

#

may be a file clash from the old version

verbal nimbus
#

still crashing after re installing reloaded

wraith grove
#

you said you have p4 installed as well

verbal nimbus
#

yeah

wraith grove
#

is that steam or xgp

verbal nimbus
#

Steam

wraith grove
#

would it be worth trying to kload that

#

then we know reloaded isnt the issue

verbal nimbus
#

it works just fine

wraith grove
#

of course it does

verbal nimbus
#

oh wow

#

it worked

#

I removed the Mods folder entirely and it booted up with the R2 console

wraith grove
#

what did ou do

verbal nimbus
#

let me try to get Persona Essential back on

wraith grove
#

do you have anything enabled in essentials config

verbal nimbus
#

Intro Skip

wraith grove
#

alright

verbal nimbus
#

well I tried with it off too, wouldn't work either way

wraith grove
#

is it still loading

verbal nimbus
#

Just installed the dependencies

#

and its crashing again

#

Maybe I should just give up on mods for P5R

wraith grove
#

tbh the gp version is a nightamre

#

i tried to use it for a run separarte from my steam ver, and it was so stupid and hit or miss

#

my last shot would be to delete all specialk files, and try installation again

verbal nimbus
#

DRM is fucking stupid

wraith grove
#

you may have just missed a step

wraith grove
verbal nimbus
wraith grove
#

sorry i couldnt help you

verbal nimbus
#

DRM doesn't even prevent piracy so thats even worse

#

well whatever

verbal nimbus
wraith grove
wraith grove
verbal nimbus
wraith grove
#

as much as im gonna sound like scum now, only thing i can suggest is to buy the steam release

#

im rlly not qualified to fix r2

verbal nimbus
#

gamepass is cheap so thats what I will stick with

wraith grove
verbal nimbus
#

nah I don't mind

#

maybe I should go to the seven seas

#

maybe it will work better

wraith grove
#

denuvo

#

although the switch release is drm free

#

that uses aemulous

#

but emulation also requires a much better pc to hit native res, and is jank on a keyboard

verbal nimbus
#

I have a decent PC, but switch emulation is a hassle

wraith grove
#

tbh, if you can find keys, its rlly easy to set up

verbal nimbus
#

I will play the game mod-free until the mods start tow work again I suppose

verbal nimbus
#

but again its too much work for mediocre performance so yeah

wraith grove
#

tbh, p5r isnt like p4g which kinda needs mods for fixes. p5 mods are rlly just more like skibidi morgana or colourful mod

verbal nimbus
#

outfit mods and HD texture mods look cool but yeah not a lot of fixes

wraith grove
#

I'm rlly sorry i couldn't help you

#

its not even like a crack is anytime soon, as empress has said before she hates anime games

verbal nimbus
#

its honestly totally fine, I appreciate you giving me your time regardless

wraith grove
#

Naa its fine, gives me something to do

fallow ibex
#

did you ever figure this out?
I have a similar problem, windows store version, Special K loads fine, Reloaded works fine, but if I add Persona Essentials (With or without intro skip), it crashes

fallow ibex
verbal nimbus
#

Kinda busy right now but will give it try today evening

#
