Framelimiter for GSDX for use in PSX emulators.

What are your PC specs? Also, I told you many times already. Did you try PEOPS DSound 1.10b? It's latest updated in 2011.
And as I said, you can also enable VSync.

Mednafen is good but has no hardware acceleration and cant increase internal resolution. Citation? You're just emitting hot air here. Most psx games do not run at a constant frame rate, and only the SPU timing remains exact enough to restrict the fps without resulting in periods of double speed. I know for sure that when Petes plugins are capped to 60, the overworld will be to fast in FF games as it was not intended to run at 60fps, but 30fps.

"Petes is the only one that provides gpu plugin limiting, and its not a great idea. "
I very much suspected it. Edit: Anyway there will be always confusion between the refresh rate, FPS, Action pace and some other related concepts, mainly when related with emulating them as well. But the most dangerous is probably missing the necessity of synchronizing everything so the whole runs as intended.

It is better than limiting by SPU as it allows fast-forwarding.

Interesting. So PSX emulators don't generate their own refresh rate of "full speed" then?
I noticed a weird reliance on this before but thought it was a misconfiguration. Probably every 2nd 3d game would be affected and every FMV in every game Question then is: Why not force a full speed refresh rate?
No. FMV doesn't have a frame rate issue.

Peops frame limiters doesnt work very well because peops GPU plugins are old and werent updated for ages.GPU Bladesoft works far better but its closed source and also wasnt updated for a long time.So there is no reason why GSDX cant potentially support frame limiting in PSX games just as good or better than Bladesoft.
I don't understand your logic. Why doesn't something work very well because it's old? When a plugin is updated, it doesn't mean that the FPS limit code is updated every time.
Both Pete's OpenGL2 and gpuBladeSoft FPS limit work very well for me. For NTSC, Pete's OpenGL2 limits the FPS at about 59.82 (auto-detect), while gpuBladeSoft limits the FPS at about 59.94. Practically, they are the same. If the FPS limit doesn't work well for you, I suspect that it's because of your PC specs. What emulator are you using? I recommend you use ePSXe. |
