hey guys...
i appreciate this is really my first post but i was quite anxious mainly due to the shock of getting this running pretty well. apologies if this is in the wrong place etcetc.... i'm just quite impressed with what i've done.... so this is a bit of a gloating session mixed with questions really! (maybe gloating is the wrong word... shock is probably better, lol)
i've just downloaded PCSX2 playground. its amazlingly awesome and runs a lot lot better than i was expecting..... many thanks!!
i managed to get it running at 40/50 frames per second which is a world record for me. i've even got sound albeit a bit choppy and slow. still its much better that i've ever managed previously. all good but i just get the feeling that i can do more with it. i know i can get 60fps i just know it.
heres my specs: -
Intel Pentium Dual Core T2330 1.60ghz
2gb RAM
Windows Vista Home Premium (yeah i know.... laugh it up.....)
No graphics card.
ok i'm running a program called ProcessTamer to give the PCSX2 exe full process power and i've even increased the process priority in the options on PCSX2. in the cpu options i am running all the dual core and mmx options and i've set all the options to componsate for speed as opposed to quality (well the ones that are obvious anyway).
what i wanna do is reduce the graphical quality and reduce the sound quality a bit which i think will do the trick. i'm willing to trade graphics for smoothness but i want the full monty (that is graphics/sound running 60fps). thing is i don't know what options do what.... i am running all default plugins since that seems the easiest way to do things.
can anyone shed some light on this?? i can almost feel 60fps.....
does the type of game have any bearing on the speed. e.g. 2d capcom game for example??
basically i wanna get the PCSX2 emulator running well..... i know i'm close!!
has anyone had any experiences running PCSX2 on low spec machines without a graphics card? are there any software solutions that will help speed up the emulator? i'm constantly using RAMcleaner as well which seems to help....
i would appreciate any kind of help or advice......... my stubborness has gotten me my 40/50fps so if thats as far as i can go then i guess thats cool!
many thanks once again for this emulator. great stuff!
