The Ultimate Shortcut: Enhancing Ultraman Fighting Evolution 3 with PCSX2 Save Data For many fans of the series, Ultraman Fighting Evolution 3 (FE3)
- Launch PCSX2: Start PCSX2 on your PC and ensure that Ultraman Fighting Evolution 3 is installed and configured properly.
- Locate the Save File: Find the save file (usually in
.binor.savformat) and note its location. - Open PCSX2's Memory Card Folder: In PCSX2, go to Config > Memory, and click on Memory Card. This will open the memory card folder.
- Replace the Save File: Place the obtained save file in the memory card folder, replacing any existing save file with the same name.
- The Fix: Go to
Config>Video (GS)>Plugin Settings. - Go to the Hacks tab.
- Check "Disable Depth Emulation".
- Why? The game uses a specific depth-buffer trick for shadows that PCSX2 sometimes misinterprets as giant black boxes. Disabling this emulation removes the boxes but might make shadows look slightly simpler.
