I will be moving away from my house in a few months and will be leaving my PS2 at home. I'd like to be able to play my PS2 games while away so I started looking into PCSX2. I downloaded it and read through the official guide and my specs & conf are below:
Processor: i7-940 @ 3.2 GHz
RAM: 2x2GB @ 1333 MHz (see 32bit OS note)
Graphics: Nvidia GT 240 1GB
CD tray: LG Super Multi GH24LS50 (16x max DVD-ROM read)
PCSX2: 0.9.8 (r4600)
Game: Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence (Disc 1)
Game ID: SLUS_213.59;1
BIOS: USA v01.60(07/02/2002)
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate Service Pack 1 x86
gsdx 4600 0.1.16, using DirectX 10 hardware
lilypad 0.10.0 r4510,
SPU2-X r4600m 1.4.0,
cdvdGigaherz r4510 0.8.0, Reading Original Disc in Tray
USBNull
FWnull
Dev9Null
My problem is that although the system boots fine into the BIOS (with 59.94 or 60 FPS) and loads the first few logos of the game itself (again 59.94 or 60 FPS) weird things start happening after the Kojima logo disappears. The GS% drops to zero, along with everything else. The FPS drop to 0.XX (between 0.12 and 0.45) and if I leave it long enough will actually shutdown the emulator. If I try to issue the shutdown command from the system menu PCSX2 will crash.
The only modifications I've tried are the clamping settings on EE/IOP menu because I don't know huge amounts about how to modify the engine. If anyone has gotten this game playing i'd love to know what settings you've used.
