Full Version: Getting some pretty bad lag on Sons Of Liberty.

Hello, I was just wondering if anyone could maybe throw me a solution for my lag issues. It's funny because the cut scenes don't lag, and the menus are fine, but as soon as Otocon strikes up a conversation with me, or whenever I start the mission, I get a horrible amount of lag (I.E. My motions are slurred and choppy, the sound drags behind) Specs are below. Running on PCSX Version 0.9.8.

And that about does it for the specs. If you need anything else, just ask, as stated, and I'll gladly throw you more.

To get the two most obvious answers out of the way--

Yes, I have the latest update for DirectX installed

No, Speedhacks are not enabled. I'd figured that would only make things worse.
Use pcsx2 1.0.0 check Resolution: Original PS2 and MTVU Hack but your GPU is weak.
That CPU is pretty weak, too. Perhaps you should try the speedhacks (try EE Cyclerate to 2 or 3, and possibly VU Cycle Stealing to 1 or 2).
Yeah, enabled the speed hack. Went up one dial by one and still nothing, it's not working.
