Hey guys, first time posting so I'm terribly sorry if this is in the wrong section, but I recently got back into ePSXe and PCSX2 playing some old favorites and I'm having some trouble getting Baldurs Gate: DA to perform at least half decent.
I understand Snowblind games are known for compatibility issues with emulators, but it being 2017 I'm going to hope that there's finally a legitimate fix somewhere.
The problem is my frame rate and game speed (%), during the opening cutscene to the game I run at between 50-60 fps with 86-100% (it drops to 50 fps and 86% when the camera zooms out), but the first cut scene in the tavern (with the naration) it goes entirely choppy and slow, and then during the conversations with the bar keep lady and Ethon I'm also running at between 50 and 60 fps with a speed between 85 and 100 percent, then when we hit gameplay I'm at 40 - 45% and only 22 fps, even the flaming 'loading' screen drops me to that... although the pause and inventory screens are clean and fluid.
I've tried various PCSX2 versions including Git versions, and their various video plugins. Enabling things like 'enable 8 bit textures' and 'fast texture invalidation' speed things up a little bi although hardly noticeable, and completely remove whatever lag and frame drops I have during the load scree which is fantastic. I've also installed the 4GP patch.
Has anyone found a solution to this yet? Other games I've been playing run fine (FFXII, FFX etc)
Thank you all in advance
