VERY SLOW... Sorry imma Newbie

[drakenhero1]

Hi everyone, imnew to this web and I had porblems with the 0.9.6 version as I tried to play WWE smackdown vs. raw 2009 and it was very slow. I put on all the speed hacks and even disabled some stuff like the clamp thingy and still it's super slow. The wrestlers are like fighting in slow motion.

Can somwone help

BTW. I have a apple computer so......

why don't you read the config guide first (besides that, that game is a heavy ps2 game, so it will need alot of cpu power), and i believe this should be in the mac part of the forums

oh yeah my compy is not a laptop it's a normal computer with Apple stuff dont know....

pcsx2 doesn't work very well with laptops (but there have been ppl that have been able run it quite good)

Hey, can't help to notice; you have an Nvidia gf4 MX on a Pentium4??
Please take no offense with my question but,
Can you run the emulator at all with such an antique setup?

What frame rates are you getting there?

Yes, mainly because of heating and battery issues, if you allow me to tell. But it's still workable yet.

i knew someone was gonna ask me that one day xP

that's because i use pcsx2 on another computer which has an Intel Core 2 E6300 CPU @ 1.86GHz and it has an IGP that supports PS 2.0 on Vista x64 (but the IGP doesn't support dx10 )

BUT i do do my little tests on this comp (using a software called swiftshader (it emulates pixel shader)), but because of that i'm actually giving the cpu more work to do xP (i get from 2 - 9% using xp, and 2 - 11% using windows 7 XP)
(i know this is like killing the CPU XP but it's still ok)

Dang! 9-11% emulation speeds...!?
Seems like a real test of patience.

And here we are complaining about 80% speeds...

[Darude]

I run everything at 110%. That's how I roll.

well it's more like 9-14%. XP

but i just don't care about the speed, i just care that i can at least play the game
(and anyways i have the other comp to use it on )
