Full Version: Xenosaga Episode 1 Slowdown?
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I want to stream this on my twitch but some cinematics have an odd slowdown.

It's not the emulator slowing down; it's still floating at around 57-61 FPS the whole time. Also the voice acting is NOT slowing down. So I end up with the scene playing 5+ seconds BEHIND the voice acting)

I'm using an Nvidia GTX 1070, with 16,260MB approx total ram, 8088MB display, and 8172MB shared.
My processor is an Intel i7 -7700k CPU @ 4.20GHz (8 CPUs)

My pcsx settings are:
Adapter: The video card
Renderer: Direct3D11 (Hardware)
Interlacing: Auto

Internal Resolution: Native (I had it on 2x for Wild ARMS 5 but fixed SOME slowdown for Xenosaga by turning it off, but not ALL slowdown)
Texture Filtering: Bilinear (PS2)
Anistropic Filtering: Off
CRC Hack Level: Full (Safest)
Enable HW Hacks: Unchecked (To turn of Wild ARMS Offset)


What else can I do to fix the slowdown? Is it the ISO itself? Because, as I said; the FPS stays around 60, even while the cinematics slow down.

Oof. I did not realize I was that out of date. Let me run the game again and see what happens.
Looks like updating fixed it!
Thank you again; I'll try Wild ARMS 5 later and see if updating fixed my issues with that one, too.
