Yeah I think it is. Games that have multiple polygon characters on screen the slower it is and the farther the render distance (as is both in DMC's case) the slower it will also be. Bully is another game I forgot to mention that I was running at 40 FPS and wasn't able to play at 60FPS until I ran the slider hacks to 2. In your case setting them to 3 may be of greater help but you start losing compatibility from doing so, therefore not many games will benefit from that high of a setting. I tried DMC a while ago and I remember nothing negative while playing (I usually do if it ran like S**t), actually I remember how fun it was to run around and do crazy stuff so fast. God of War 1 & 2 obviously are major system hogs, but I can get running fullspeed even at 1000x1000 resolution (which is what I play all my games at). As for your PS2 adapter I probably have the same adapter you do. Is this what you have? I don't use it though because it messes up my 360 controller numbers and I have to change the controller settings for every one of my emulators. I have a driver that I got that I don't remember where but it says it has rumble support so I'mma UL it, You can try it at your leisure. Twin_USB_Vibration_Gamepad_-_81017906_-_W7.rar

You are going to want to mess with those sliders. I'm gonna tell you right now that I wasn't able to get Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2 to run faster than 30-40 FPS ever so I just lived with it. I also never messed with the EE cycle and VU cycle rates (kept them both at 1). As soon as I put them both on 2 I was playing that game with 60 FPS even on multiplayer (Has occasional hiccup)! I also wasn't able to play Sly Cooper faster than 40 FPS and it now runs at 60 FPS solid. And to anyone who likes Earth/Global Defense Force 2 turn off framelimiting! I was at 60 FPS and the game was still slower than S**T and when I turned framelimiting off it jumped to 80 FPS and played amazingly. Also turn sound from Timestretch to Asynchronous to keep the sound normal and not sped up.

From what I've read the GameCube is actually stronger than the Xbox or PS2. And yes I was talking about the sliders in the speedhacks menu. Sounds like you may just have an outdated rig for emulating anything higher than dreamcast. Emulators like dolphin are being optimized to the point where a newish setup is required. For example there is no more 32 bit support for Dolphin as well as Direct X 9. The more accurate the higher the system requirements. But games like Star Wars Rouge Squadron 2 do not play well at all still regardless. Glad to hear you got playable framerates on pcsx2 though.

Glad you realized that pcsx2bonus has that option dazzle Since I do not know what your system specs are this is pure speculation but you're probably missing a few key settings that you need enabled/selected to get pcsx2 running well. Go into your plugin settings and make sure you have MVU Flag Hack enabled and MTVU Multi Threaded Hack and make your EE and VU cycle rates to 2 . Don't enable Vsync. Go to your VUs section and change VU0 and VU1 to supervU Recompiler. Then try running your gsdx under direct3D9 or 11. You should have something playable with those settings. The hack to switch to software on FMVs I've only used for Dirge of Ceberus Final Fantasy 7 as that game has really terrible compatibility with the FMVs in that game. I can play Final Fantasy 12 no problem. There are many games that have crappy speed during FMVs but once the game starts its all good. I remember Kingdom Hearts used to give me trouble on my old rig but the gameplay was playable.

I've yet to integrate pcsx2bonus with my GameEx right now I just have ISOs and my working path is pcsx2 pointing to the emulator. But there is something worth noting. You can apparently make executables (.EXEs) with pcsx2bonus for each game so I would probably have to just make an executable for each of my games and make those my "ISOs" in GameEx instead of the actual ISOs. And it launches your game with your custom configuration just tried Amplitude which requires full boot (not fast boot) to run and it works. You can also choose what icon your executable has too!

I just messed around with pcsx2bonus for the first time and I have to say that switching to a different version of pcsx2 was completely painless for me.What happened was I accidentally started configuring settings for a older build of pcsx2 and just switched the path to the most recent build and I have yet to experience any bad things or having to restart my settings for each game. I never used pcsxlunch so I don't really have a way to compare pcsx2bonus to pcsxlunch in that aspect.

You also could have been a supporting member by helping making snaps and video snaps for various systems/games that need it like me and you'd get access to all the videos on the FTP.

I feel for ya. My mom took her own life 2 years ago but it still feels like yesterday (her birthday is next month on this day) and still hurts me. My father also passed a couple months ago. Both meant a lot to me. You have my deepest empathy Aaron. Just think of all the good things.

There is a complete box pack on the site get it from there. http://emumovies.com/forums/index.php/files/file/1169-playstation-2-boxes/ As for videos, yes there are some but you have to be a supporting member to access them because its not a complete set of videos yet. Photo snaps and Title Snaps are not on emumovies. But if you only have 15 games them make them yourself, its very easy.

I couldn't be aware of such because almost everything involving Evo has been kept in the dark from the general public. Also if it only has 500 or so games in it, it'll still need adding on to. I'll keep working on mine because it would still benefit people like Modded Wii users like myself who have their Wii ISOs named after their GameID. The Evo Database may help give me more time to work on a WiiWare Database and get Snaps made though.

I am aware of this, in fact its what I'm using in my database as a starting point because it has over 500 game entries but literally no info other than the redump names; unfinished is an understatement. I am adding ALL other info like genre, players, descriptions, date of release, publisher, developer, and the GameID's (For modded Wii users) for each game that is already in the original database that GameEx provided. Once I get that done I will start adding games that haven't been added to the database at all yet. Also once that is done I am going to make a WiiWare database separate from the Wii Database.

I would be interested in seeing Windows 8 App support for GameEx. Currently I have no idea how to even get any of my Windows 8 App games to show up on there in any way.

Yeah I've been to there before, but I was wondering if maybe there were some third party plugins someone is using that works great for them. I was using the regular Gsdx and it was making half of my games crash. I switched over to Gsdx Cutie (unofficial plugin) and its been working rather well for me. Just didnt know about the sse3 and AVX stuff too much.

Do any of you know which video plugin is the best, assuming that my CPU has all the different types of instructions supported?

Thanks, it wasn't easy getting all of them and renaming them all as well. Especially when I have french and japanese covers too that I had to separate them from. Not sure if I should even mess with the Japanese and French covers because the names aren't all the same. I'd gladly hand the images over for someone else to though lol.

Hell yeah! The customization seems infinite in scope! We're definitely gonna need a more updated area for all the new stuff that's coming.

I can see the appeal of something like this. It would be nice to have someone to help with my projects. If there were a centralized place for people who contribute or can go to contribute it would help greatly imo. The stuff I'm working on is very tedious for 1 person alone to do, but if there were other people with similar interests to collaborate with, the "work" would get done much quicker. Everything about this hobby is work other than enjoying your work you put into it. I'm interested in seeing a Contributor area of sorts. What we got now kinda works but its all mixed up with plugins, themes, utilities and databases all over the place. And everyone is working on their own thing. Need a way of getting more attention to this area. Combine this area with the download section and make it all oragized and cool looking. Especially since GameEx Evo is on the way.

I have all english WiiWare Box covers in my upload folder on the Emumovies FTP if anyone is interested. If I am missing a game let me know!

people be busy on thursdays

I can easily distract my friends with something. I usually have something to say about the game before we play it. So now I just have allotted time to do so.

Driver 2 was 642MB uncompressed and when compressed its 343MB and it decompresses with 7zip in 48.94 seconds GameEx does it in 27.70 seconds! Maybe I can put up with it, thats really no time at all to wait.
