frustrated beginner!!!
#1
Hi all, just new at the forums.

I downloaded the emulator yesterday to play mgs2. 

When I first started the game, the audio was very robotic but the graphics were fine. 

Tried to fix it using suggestions from forums but it has made the situation worse. Now my graphics are slow, the framerate is about 14 - 25 and the audio plays then stops then plays then stops. 

Getting frustrated now, can anyone help please?!

Thank you all

#1: Enable ALL hacks and set EE cyclerate and VU cycle stealing to 1. This game should be able to handle them just fine.
#6: Disable debug options, set synchronizing mode to Async Mix, module to SPU2-X and latency back within normal levels (50-100).

Hi, couldnt see the SPU2-X module, so set it to the recommended one. Done everything else and now the sound is really robotic and leading before the video. Should i attach a video?

please screenshot your current spu2-x settings (after you applied the suggested changes)

Set the module to portaudio. SPU2x is the plugin not the module.


The game will always be slow on that CPU though. It's far below what MGS2 requires.

It's because the game isn't running at full speed, which won't happen with that CPU.
