Megaman X7 config help

[sc10e]

searched the forum and google but didnt find much. I cant get Megaman x7 to run very well (30-40 FPS).

Anyone have a config that runs it well?

[ziggy]

need explain a bit more. like computer specs and emu version plugins use/version etc.

[sc10e]

sorry man. My specs are :

Windows 7 64-Bit
4GB DDR2
Athlon 64 X2 @ 3.1Ghz
nvidia 8500 gt


Im using an iso of the game. I am using the latest beta of the emu, 147x I think, and GSdx 1476 for SSE2 processors at 720p (1280 x 720) resolution.

you nvida 8500 gt don't is power enought to run games at full speed in that resolutions, try native resolution.

Try enabling the "native" checkbox in GSdx and try enabling/disabling 8-bit textures also.

Oh, I see. I knew I couldn't run the games at 1080p like my monitor is, but I guess I figured I still coulda had a little bit of HD, guess not. No biggie. I will be upgrading soon I think

but wait, the game is still slow. I think I need configuration changes more than the resolution

[Shadow Lady]

Did you try enabling some speedhacks in PCSX2 from the "config > speed hacks" menu? specially "x2 cycle rate" and "vu cycle stealing" set to slight/moderate should help a bit.

[sc10e]

yeah, I guess I got it acceptable. VU stealing actually slowed it

[Shadow Lady]

In case you're using frame limiter try disabling it so VU cycle stealing could work better that way but then again it could still do nothing
