I've been told by Stephen that Catherine Full Body crashes due to save issues so here's a log.

@viniciuslrangel That doesn't seem to fix any of the save issues in the DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE titles. I'm still working on testing J-STARS.

J-STARS Victory Vs+ appears to be fixed. I'm able to create, view, and delete replay data successfully.

Found another save issue thanks to a comment on one of my reports on the compatibility list, 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim saves work, but you can't have multiple saves at the same time for some reason, once you quit the game they all disappear beside the last one , first screenshot is me saving the game, second screenshot is after closing it and launching it again.

It seems to be an issue only upon relaunching the game, when you make multiple saves you can load them all without issues, but quit the game and come back and all but one are gone, I've tried looking at the size of the file during the whole process but it didn't change, I also tried making a copy of the folder right after saving while the game is still on then quitting the game and replacing the save file with the copy but it didn't work, so not sure what the issue is really.

@UltraDaCat can you post about the save issue in Catherine Full Body?

It seems that Catherine Full Body suffers from a saving issue, as loading PS4 saves works just fine(as shown in the 1st and 2nd image attached to this comment). However, saving the game on the emulator causes the saves not to appear when attempting to load the game, even when saving to another slot(as shown in the 3rd and 4th image).

Gran Turismo Sport (CUSA02168) version 1.00 fails to create a save file (but version 1.69 creates one with no problem), it creates the sce_sdmemory folder but not the local-data one. Here are both save files so you can compare them better @viniciuslrangel

sce_sdmemory 1.00.zip

sce_sdmemory 1.69.zip

And a log:

CUSA02168.log

And a stack trace too:

Catherine Full Body save issues are not fixed yet.
A fix was published a while back, but it hasn't been merged yet.

If you want to play the game, I suggest sticking to real hardware for now.

Everything in here is fixed, so I'm closing this.
Future save issues can warrant a new issue.
