Ninja Shadow of Darkness PSX [Black screen just before first boss]

[chamaljot]

Hi all,
As title says I have problem just after entering the first boss gate in this game (when the short video should be loading).
When I enter the "gate" (https://postimg.org/image/xvrshd101/ - the critical point) the screen turns black and I dont hear or see anything.
My emulator doesn't crash because when I press F3 to load the last checkpoint it immediately returns me to the specific point of game.

I have tried :
- downloaded "Ninja" ISOs from the all ROM webpages (I think... I have about 5 different ISO's)

- tried using epsxe 1.9.25, and all plugins including Pete's D3D 1.77 and Pete's D3D 1.76, Pete's OpenGL 2.9 and 2.7
- tried using epsxe 2.00, and all plugins
- tried using epsxe 1.7 and 1.6 with same and different plugins

- I tried NOT to save any game date using epsxe until I arrived at the critical point.

- I also tried to run this game on another two PC's and the same problem occured at the same point!

I haven't expirienced any kind of lagg and the sound plays without "skipping".



I am wondering did this happend to anyone who played this game in past ???
Any help is appreciated!

I've found that, tried that, failed (forgot to mention).

But thanx anyways skullpoker .

I found .mp3 files that are NOT included in this game at all (didn't noticed at first). Maybe the missing .mp3 files are cousing the error ?

Not sure if this deals directly with MP3's, since you may have extracted one time too many.
