MAJOR bug in FFX

I was trying to get the celestial weapon for tidus(caladbolg) and i have gotten all 3 items, sun crest, sun sigil(beat the chocobo race) and the celestial mirror and yet when i go to the NW section of the calm lands,

the guard is still standing there for some damm unknown reason and not letting me pass.
I have gone all over the internet and i have checked that i have done everything right in order to gain the caladbolg but still the guard blocking the pathway remains as several guides pointed and stated that he would be gone after gaining the 3 items and winning every chocobo race,

can any one please helpe me out? or is this possibly a bug in the game?

I am using FFX international by the way

'Where' are you in the story?

Right now im suppose to take the airship to goto bevelle after killing yunalesca

i Spent the entire day trying to win the chocobo race getting a time of 0 seconds, the guard still isblocking the guard

OK, beat the crap outta Yunalesca, get acces to the airship, beat Sin (so that you can fly into it to enter the last dungeon), after that, the guard should be gone.

i have beat yunalesca and got that sun crest, you mean even if i got the sun sigil, sun crest and celestial mirror i cant get the caladbolg until i beat sin?

I appreciate you help very much but is it ok you help me out?

I dont have to do the chocobo race again right? Took me 2 hours to beat it

k.

Not really, unless you want some rare items.

Well i already have the airship, and the guides did state that after winning the race, the guard will back down but he didnt

Do you have the Celestial Mirror? The chest won't even open without that, you many need it for the guard to move.

I'm pretty sure there's an FFX thread already but I can't find it, so I'll just leave this for now.

Wait, now that I think about it, I had the same problem, I don't remember how I solved the whole thing but I do remember that I had to talk to someone somewhere on the Calm lands, or maybe I just talked to him while riding a chocobo...hmm.

I haven't played FFX in years, and I never got Caladbolg anyway, I got fed up with freaking chocobo racing, and I don't have the International version, so yeah.

If you don't have the Celestial Mirror when you go to get past the guard though, that might be it.

Never mind, he has the Celestial Mirror, go my ability to read. In my defense, I just woke up 😛

I...really have no idea.

ill explain my situation, i just killed yunalesca, got the sun crest, i have airship control but i havnt fought sin yet

Then i spend about 2 and a half hours trying to win the chocobo race, i got the sunsigil.

Then i won the other race to get the cloudy mirror and turned it into a celestial mirror,

According to several guides i checked, the guard blocking the path should have moved away once i win all chocobo races which i did, i went NW of the calm lands and the guardis still standing there ><

"WARNING! SAVE FILE IS CORRUPT!" 😬 (Spent 250 hours playing that game btw)

Anywho, Kadesh, try going to that shiny forest where you charge the celestial items to see if you maybe have to charge up the mirror too/again.

I've just gone and looked it up.

Did you win all the races before getting the Celestial Mirror?

If so, you just need to go and win the races again. The guard won't move unless you have the Celestial Mirror when you do the races.

Well, I haven't played in years either, thought Tidus was a worthless fighter but I got his weapon anyway since I was planing to train him later, cuz his and Wakka's overdrives were the only things that could bring down the 'Secret' secret aeons. Grew tired of the game and one year later picked it up again to continue the training and the dark aeon beating.

US version of the game doesn't have the Dark Aeons. Which I really want to fight 😬

Those things are almost impossible to beat, especially Yojimbo, Anima and those bug sisters. And after you beat all of the dark aeons and all the special monsters at that monster tamer's (or whatever he is) place you get to fight some huge monster/machine named Punisher or something aboard the airship. That thing is just sick!

Do i have to beat the irritating get 0.00 race all do All of them all over again?

Nope, just need to win all the races. You only need to get the 0.00 time for the Sigil.

i already have the sigil, but which race do i race? the baloons or the one at remiem temple

All four chocobo races in the Calm Lands, not the Remiem Temple one.

Though I'd recommend doing the Remiem Temple race again and going for the treasure chests, you can get some kickass rare items that way.
