EDIT:Nevermind, wasn't using the latest beta now it works. Game runs super smooth now and plays great!
Hey Eliot. I tried the game on my brother's computer. He's got a E8500 @ 3.16Ghz with a brand new ATI 5770 so I think it should run at 60fps. I'm using your gsdx hack and it works - no annoying bloom. However, I wonder what others hacks should be enabled (considering it's version 0.9.7) to make the game work at best since atm, I'm getting terrible sound lag and a weird 24fps at the start screen.
Hey eliot, how do I install your plugin and which SSE2 plugin do I use as you have several? Also is the plugin compatible with the latest 0.9.7 beta rev 3113?

I recommend VU cycle stealing = 2 with all other "recommended" hacks enabled... Then, if you play in non-native resolution, I strongly recommend multiple scaler (2x or 3x) and offset hack in GSDX... You may also enable alpha hack to make that "foggy" intro a bit faster... Do not use progressive mode in the game, it has a bit larger render target (640x448 in progressive and 512x448 in interlaced) and is slower... The game has no interlacing artifacts anyway...
Nothing really special...
Great, I'll try that and report back
Hi Eliot !
Is there really any speedups for SotC with new ReorderingMTGS core ? Or any gfx changes for this game ?

As far as I can see, no... At all...
What are the best settings to play this game with when using Eliot's file? I mean in terms of speedhacks and other PCSX2 settings.
there is no difference in the rest settings...

The only notice is concerning the GSDX "offset hack"... Using the original plugin, if you use non-native resolution, you'll have dark stripes on the right and bottom sides of the screen, but if you enable "offset hack", they're gone, but you'll end up with much higher "overbrightening" effect... So, "offset hack" may not be recommended...
If you use my plugin, there's no overbrightening, so you can use that hack without side-effects...
