Hello everyone!
First of all I want to say that this emulator runs like a dream and I am totally fascinated how people managed to get this emulator developed this far. Thank you very much for all your efforts! Keep it up! This emulator is really fun!
To my problem: In the japanese version of Final Fantasy X I always get a slowdown during the visual effects of the "Fire"-magic (not fira or figa) and especially during the scene where Ifrit loads a great fireball out of his mouth. Also the magic "Gravite" (also known as "Demi") causes that slowdown. FPS are dropping from 60 to 40-20 at these effects.
Could it be that a special visual effect that appears in all of those mentioned situations above is causing this slowdown? Or is it maybe my settings?
Here are my plugins and settings:
plugins
pcsx2 r1040
gsdx 1006 0.1.15 SSSE3
spu2-x 1.10
SSSPSX PAD 1.60
Linuz Iso CDVD 0.8.0
Settings
CPU Frame Limiting - Limit and all four boxes checked
Speed Hacks - x1,5 Cycle Rate; VU Cycle Stealing off; all four boxes checked
Advanced Options - EE Recs Options: Round Mode - Chop Zero
Clamp Mode - None
Flush to Zero & Denormals are zero
Vu Recs options - same as in EE recs options.
My system specs are listed in my signature.
It would be really great if somebody could help me out at this issue.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: My OS is Windows Vista with Service Pack 1
