Heroes Phantasia regression in r2438

[gid15]

Starting with r2438, Heroes Phantasia (NPJH50558) is unable to continue past the title screen even when you push Start or the circle button. After a few seconds in the title screen, it loops back to the opening movie and keeps looping indefinitely between opening movie and title screen with the controls being non-responsive. With r2437 and earlier revisions, I can continue past the title screen and play the game.

I've tracked the problem to the jpcsp.HLE.modules630.sceAtrac3plus class in the following part (lines 51 - 53):

Code:

51   if (Memory.isAddressGood(samplesAddr.getAddress())) {
52         decodeAddr.setValue(samplesAddr.getAddress() - 2160); // Rewind to the sample's header block.
53   }

If line 52 is commented out, then the game can continue past the title screen just like in r2437.

As Hykem is no longer posting during the last months, I've decided to finally add this finding to r2701 :-).

Thank you!
