I forgot to merge roms.ini, don't worry guys about it.
As for the issue posted, it should be fixed in 726 without the need to mess with roms.ini, since the problem was that I made simulate doubles more aggressive and broke several games. Corn already fixed it cleverly in dev branch.

Update to 726, Rayman 2 should work fine.

Also since now we have rendering working in Perfect Dark, could anyone help to track down the regression that is causing it to freeze at the main logo?
I believe it should be in 5XX+ range.

I tracked the Perfect Dark regression to revision 648. Now, hopefully it will be a simple fix.

EDIT: We determined that that was not the culprit. After testing some more, I believe 686 broke it. It does get past the crash in 685, and starts in 686.

I wonder how you'll track it down since there's only one change logged.

he's got hundreds of revs, just tries different versions.

Perfect Dark started freezing on rev 692. I'm positive this time. I reverted the changes, and merged it with the latest rev, then it got past the freeze. Even better, I saved the devs time by tracking what exactly caused the freeze. To get past the freeze, go to Source/Utility/ROMFileCache.cpp and remove lines 71-76:

//ToDo: Optimize chunk size for Slim and Phat based on cache size
if (PSP_IS_SLIM)
{
CHUNK_SIZE = 24 * 1024;
STORAGE_BYTES = CACHE_SIZE * CHUNK_SIZE;
}

Sorry it took longer than expected. I've been busy, so what?

Yep I can confirm reverting that line fixes the freeze in PD, great job Bdacanay!
I think the problem is not due a bug in ROM cache, but that we are running out of memory in PD, maybish a mem leak?

Can you point out to which one? as far as I'm aware there isn't any atm, last one was the HOME button issue which is been fixed.
Anyways it wasn't a mem leak that was causing issues in PD, but a bug with ROM cache code.

Are there any known regressions that need to be hunted?

Not sure if starcraft 64 ever worked but if it did I would love for you to hunt down the regression that or star wars: rogue squadron

I think There's a regression in Wave Race 64. It misses a lot of polygons (using recommended settings : Texture Update every frame & frameskip Auto 1)
