Chrono Cross locking up during battle animations

That what I was afraid of... Really wish people would pack their stuff carefully. Anyone got a spare Chrono Cross disc 1?

Hmm, I tried ripping my FF8 disc 1 (which had skipping during the opening cutscene) but it ripped fine, even with "ignore bad blocks" set to "off". Might this be the laser issue that has been brought up?

 

Just because it reads fine on a computer means nothing. They have completely different component quality and tolerances. Reed Solomon might be able to correct the error & the PS1 skips just because the hole causes the CD controller to recalibrate or something. Speculation is pointless though, you need a new disc.

 

Ah, I think you've gotten a few things mixed up. My Chrono Cross disc is the one with holes in it, my FF8 disk doesn't.

Anyway, I've found a guy on ebay who is selling Chrono Cross discs. He's also including the manual, which is handy since mine is in French.
