Full Version: The new Pcsx2 beta 720
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Just started using Pcsx2 beta 720 and the new plugins (tried about a dozen games so far) and I see an overall generous speed improvement. Also "Rule of Rose" doesn't require VUOrec to be disabled to run correctly. Very impressive. Still testing.
I don't see a need for a thread for this, but since you made it, you should at least make a comparison of speed difference with older version and the new version.
But really do not make threads like this in the future until there is a problem or bug solved which is not mentioned in the log.
I don't see a problem here. It was this comment that made me go and get the new beta and sure enough it does seem a tad smoother. Nothing wrong with a thread to discuss the latest beta release I don't think. Where else can we discuss this?

Anyway, thumbs up to the new beta!
I understand, I think the title got me wrong, it looked like a problem was encountered with it, should have been "pcsx2 beta 720 is out"
But the Official beta version has it own release thread. You should check it from time to time.

The speed boost I'm seeing is a little more then when enabling x3 Cycle Rate. Imagine if we had a x4 cycle rate. That's the kind of speed boost I'm seeing. Since everyone has different system specs, it wouldn't make sense to post frame rate differences.

Also, I would think it would be a good thing now and then to share a word of praise for the selfless hard work of the pCSX2 team. They need to know how much they're kind work is appreciated.

At least for me from pp441 till now the x? Cycle Rate is almost useless for me.INTC Sync Hack alone gives me all the speed I get with all speed hack enabled on the official Playground v1.0.0395 version(even more on some games)
I don't really see what's wrong with this thread...the official beta release thread is for admins only, and this is as good a place as any to talk about it. Dunno how PCSX2 is supposed to progress without feedback.

Gonna try the new beta when I'm home, sounds great.
Here would be the correct place to post:

Yeah post all your comments about new beta builds there. If you find a regression on a newer beta,report it in the bug forum with the proper information to help us.
Closing this,you can repost whatever you want in the above thread Wink
