hi 2 all!
I the beginner in usage of this emulator, help me please!

My problem consists in these artefacts on the screen ( http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/1305/30408102.jpg ) and a braking sound
Here already there was a post about this problem, but have responded in pm.
I use pcsx2-r1888 and plug-ins GSdx 1873 sse2 0.1.15, SPU-X 1.2.0 and USA v01.60 bios (19/03/2002)

Basically I adhered to these customisations at a configuration - http://i007.radikal.ru/0906/92/f1c400dd5ee9.jpg
By the way, i have NTSC version of game and artefacts disappear, at usage Software DX, but strongly falls fps..

...when in game, go to options, then find there the brightnes slider & change it to 0, artefact's will disapear, ...also reread again settings form posts above, especialy first one...


Cheers...

Also note that your CPU is really really slow for this game. This is one of the killer PS2 games that requires a good 3.5ghz+ dual+ core system to run full speed.

Does it even run at full speed?

[rex1825]

Yes, at around 4.0GHz... tried already...

...but, it'll reduce speed to 70-80% when on some particular tests, or on some particular parts of track when all cars are there... lol, you should have a 4.5GHz for this game xD

Cheers...

Man I wish my PS2 wasnt fried!

I plan on trying to play this on my PC.

Got an AMD Athlon II x2 240 at 3.2Ghz with ati 4850 and 4gb ram.
I`ll just follow the guide on the 1st page of this thread or are there other fixes/better settings to be found in the other 11 pages ??

Hi!
I'd like to try to play GT3 or GT4 on my laptop.
my laptop: HP 6735s
amd turion x2 dual core mobile 2ghz
ati radeon hd3200
3gb ram
win 7
is there a possibility that one of the games will work with emulator or is my computer too weak?
Thanks
