God of War 1 & 2 looks playable

frame skipping at 10 to skip and 10 to draw

skip when turbo or constant skipping?

Looks like this game really likes the VU speedhack. Getting smooth gameplay. Only down side is kratos kind of blinks on and off but its not too big of an annoyance.

The performance jump from a Q6600 3.4Ghz to a 2600K 4.5Ghz is just MASSIVE for this emulator, I can only imagine if the emulator starts using 4 cores!!

Is there anyway to fix the glowing+floating image on everyone in GoW2?

skipdraw hack
one of GSDX hacks
how to enable using them ????
add this to GSDX.ini in inis folder:
allowhacks=1
and save
then you just have enabled using them
time to enable it
raise skipdraw hack to 1 in GSDX settings

Is that how to fix the glowing issue i asked about ?

[abdo123]

yes.
Edit: i reread the post i have made and its totally not understanded
so i will copy the sector from the guide that interest you:

Hacks Subsection:
Only available if you manually edit the GSdx.ini file and change the line from AllowHacks=0 to AllowHacks=1.
These settings are ONLY for advanced users that know what they are doing. These settings can and WILL cause serious glitches if used in games that need them! (only affect hardware modes).

HW Anti Aliasing: Adds Anti-Aliasing of the selected level to every surface rendered. This is highly video card memory demanding and might crash PCSX2 if there's not enough RAM.

Alpha Hack: Try this if your game has issues with fog like effects.

Offset Hack: This hack adds an offset to all surfaces so that some common upscaling issues get reduced. Use this when blur or halo effects seem to appear shifted up-left of where they should be.

Skipdraw Hack: Skips drawing some surfaces altogether, based on how likely they are to cause issues. Specify how many surfaces should get skipped after the first problematic one is found. Try lower values first like 1-3 then use higher ones (the highest the number the higher the chance of broken/missing graphics and effects). This hack may cause random speedups as well!

There seems to be no more ini folder with the v0.9.8

[abdo123]

inis folder not "ini"
then you find GSDX.ini ( as mentioned above ) modify it and save

[EarlZ]

The only folders inside the 0.9.8 installation are:

Cheats
Docs
Langs
Plugins

There are no Ini/Inis like 0.9.6
