Shadow Hearts1 running slowly.

[YoloSwag]

It runs at 30-33 FPS when walking around, but my EE is 19-21% and my GS is 30%

Anyone know how to fix this?

You probably use speedhacks? Or the original dvd?

Please specify your system.

Try setting GSdx to DW9 hardware renderer for this game, it should be faster than DX10/11

I'm sorry I forgot to mention I am using DW9 hardware atm cause I actually googled the problem and I found a response from you in it

I'm wearing my name ironically.

I am not using speedhacks (and never have before), I am using 3x native resolution and 8x MSSA. With 0x MSSA and 2x native my FPS stays the same.

My system is

i3 2120 3.3 GHz
Radeon 7850
8GB DDR3
64 bit os

Then it is time to test your first speedhacks!
I wish you nice experiences with all the recommended tickboxes.
Try MTVU as well. Your cpu supports 4 threads due to hyperthreading. Depending on the game the MTVU hack can increase or decrease the performance.
Keep the sliders for the beginning on the initial (small) values.
Report back what you see.

Do you use the original disk or an iso?

There is a wiki entry for the game that already contains some information regarding speedhacks and known issues.

Iso.

I activated MTVU - the FPS stays the same, I activated EE Cyclerate to 2 and still 30-33 FPS.

Activating both at the same time still gives 33 FPS, this is so weird

You have only 2 cores, that could be a problem and MTVU speedhack will probably be uneffective.
what do the ee% & gs% say when you get slowdowns ?

My EE is 19-21% and my GS is 30% when my FPS is 30-33 even if I have speedhacks enabled and texture filtering off or on.
