Interesting that razefox could not get Vagrant story working because i have the weirdest bug with it. I get it running at about 60-70 % speed and all is good. however it seems the enemy A.I is completely absent. they just stand there doing nothing even when I attack them. I have never seen such a bug in an emulator before....very odd.
you need to play around with the cycle multiplier and frameskip.
for a 900Mhz clocked N900 i used multiplier 3 and frameskip 1/2, for stock (600Mhz) i use multiplier 3 frameskip 2/3. some combinations will work. also, turn OFF frame limit.
Have any of you played a game where it was working fine but slow, if so did u manage to fix it up and at what settings? Ive got wwe smackdown going from help from a guy here, the game works fine the menu is full speed but once in the game i can play it dont get me wrong its just slow like the whole game is in slow mode... Ive got it at 10x any ideas here. Thanks
Thanks sierrafoxtrot, that actually worked. Who knew?
Incidentally I got marvel vs capcom going fairly fast (70-80%) on a stock 600mhz n900 using multiplier to 7. Is it worth overclocking or will future iterations of this excellent emu be based on a standard n900 clock speeds?
I dont feel the need to decrease the life of my n900 just for a psx emulator just not going to happen. So no over clock for me.
Me neither, but for faster interface, browser, much smoother Flash games / video, MAME and PSX4ALL, the 800MHZ is appreciated. If you use your device 24 hours a day, it may be an issue, but even with the most aggressive degradation curve, 200 more mhz is not going to be a problem unless keeping your device for years. In that case, 600 mhz is an issue as well
The N900 performs as it should have with 600mhz- fast and responsive
GTA2 seems to be a no go though I might have a bad image, it runs however:
- The cars seem a funny colour (mostly all blue so maybe there are some damaged textures, need to check on laptop)
- Sound is there although the intro FMV either has choppy sound or too fast sound depending on the cycle.
- Menu works fine but race won't start if above cycle 5.
Wipeout 3 Special Edition on the other hand looks damn near perfect! Full frame rate, all the sound although lacking the awesome trance music they used to have but maybe because the audio is CDA like they used to do and PSX4ALL can't play CDA tracks from the mounted image
Hogs Of War runs good except for sound.
Kings Feild runs really slow
Diablo also runs slow but almost playable
Harvest Moon and FF8 dont run they freeze on startup
