Metal Gear 2 (SOL) - PCSX2 1.2.1 - slow - which settings
#1
Hi Guys.

I've tried to read through every Post I found on Sons of Liberty and the proper settings for PCSX but nothing helped.
I know it's a very intense game for an Emulator and my machine (Laptop) is (at least I think that is) not the strongest for the Emulator.

My Setup:

Intel i7-2670QM
AMD Radeon HD 6850M (1GB Vram) - [CoreClock: 675MHz , MemoryClock 800MHz]
8GB Ram
120GB SSD + 750GB HDD
(btw - haven't tried to run the game from the SSD yet - would that make any big difference?)


My first question....what do you guys think?
Is my machine to weak? Especially the GPU?
The game runs a whole lot better on Software mode compared to Hardware.
So I myself would say the big bottleneck is my graphics.
But hey....perhaps I'm lucky and it's only the settings.

I get a constant reading of 30-40FPS (at the slowest moments) but it's still laggy. Especially the tank level in front of metal gear with the numerous soldiers [loads of AIs working]
At the moment my system is set up according to the instructions of this video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0e-V_21Z8k0
The only difference I tried out was changing from GPU to CPU.
Screenshots of "the best" settings would be highly appreciated.

On MSI Afterburner I noticed (although the Laptop is set to High Power Mode) that my GPU clock jumps around in it's clock numbers. (From Max to 500Mhz and 300MHz down to 200MHz and 100MHz)
Can I somehow force it to stay on Max?)

THX guys!
If you need any more info...let me know

for the best experience set windows performance plan to high performance in control panel and play the game while your laptop is plugged in. from the looks of it, it's probably a GPU bottleneck.

Please provide the content of your GSdx.ini and emulog file. if it's really a GPU bottleneck then, software mode is the best choice since your CPU is a lot faster. Smile

Thanks for your help!

How can I provide these infos?
Unfortunately I'm a slight noob on PCSX2. ;-)
So I need manuals for dummies :-D

you can find the GSdx.ini file on the inis folder, emulog at the logs folder.

I'm going to have to disagree with ssakash and say that cpu is far too weak for MGS2 SOL

It's Single Threaded Score is around 1400 and it's recommended to have around 2000 for MGS2

edit the GSdx.ini file and set Renderer=3 & nativeres=1 and make sure to save the file and try again. the GPU load might be less now, it's worth a try. don't change any other options. if it still slows down then, try using SuperVU recompiler.

Do you advise me to do this on software or hardware mode now?

If my CPU is that much faster than my GPU I'd rather just use the software mode then.

don't need to change anything, keep the current settings. just edit the following at the GSdx.ini file and test it out.

Okay...that help a little bit.
But still...it's laggy during intense moments (of course)
It's especially bad during cutscenes.
I thought those were only videos. Or am I wrong?!
So why are they slow?

Any other suggestions?
