Disable antivirus before patching (sometimes it corrupts large files). | | Player names are fake (e.g., "Castolo") | The patch included an Option File but you didn't load it. | Go to Settings > Load Data in-game. Load the included .max or .xps file via a USB drive (use "myMC" on PC to inject it). | | Stuttering in PCSX2 | Emulation settings too high. | Go to Config > Video > Plugin Settings.
