Summary 08600: psu [khamrai]: This game's copy is definitely not from ReDump set.
Description Its origin is questionable, because, as it shown by the test through ePSXe, it has an intro of some Taiwanese release group (http://web.archive.org/web/20010701000000*/shpwlw.yeah.net ).
Steps To Reproduce DeCHD the game image using extractcd command, and launch it through the ePSXe (Mednafen and BizHawk perceives the taken images as a broken). Please pay an attention that intro FOLLOWS the "Produced by Namco" logo, NOT APPEARS BEFORE it. To enter the game by itself, try to press the Start button BEFORE intro stop to flicker, otherwise the game will freeze.
Additional Information Any attempts to take a snapshot or record an intro appearance on a video were failed.

I don't see the point of this report.

There's nothing in the softlist entry that mentions Redump, so I am not at all sure what you're talking about, or what you want to be done.

Maybe read what he said again. He very clearly states that the dump of the game in mame softlist is not a Redump verified dump but rather a "scene release" that has an intro hacked in, made by a release group, it's why "No-Intro" site came to being. <Edited for content - don't do this again>

Anyway, grabbed a copy myself to check, and yeah mame has a dirty copy (no surprise as a lot of the software stuff needs to be cleaned up).
Relevant psx.xml info states:

And redump info http://redump.org/disc/19575/ says:

Only one dumper so not a green verification but fuzzball has been dumping for years so I trust his dumps.

Edit: tried out the official dump from redump and it works beautifully other than the fat top and right black borders during the opening movie in screenshots. When did PlayStation emulation get so good in mame? Lol.

That was running with "psj" bios and not "psu". @VasiliyFamiliya why did you try to run the game using the "psu" bios? You do realize that's American and not the proper Japanese bios? Not good to attempt to run a game using the wrong region bios.
