FF7 Tifa's Limit Break

slimjim · August 26th, 2002

I finally started playing FF7 last night.
My first thoughts was WOW this looks so much better on ePSXe than on my PS2.
I was very pleased as I have battle swirls running without a problem and there are no other graphical glitches i could notice. The games is running at 640x480 with 4xFSAA and it looks brilliant.

Then i got to Tifa's limit break and the slot machine type wheel which you use for her limit break doesnt have the spin effect.
Is there an option i'm not ticking in Petes OpenGL 1.65 driver?

Im at work just now so i'll post my gpu config tonight.

All help appreciated

Ok here is my current config:

Framerate:

Still no rolling / spinning action for tifa's limit break. I can put up with this but the perfectionist in me wants this sorted.

I also noticed that every now and again the music would stick and the same note would be repeated over and over. pressing esc and resuming fixes this. Any1 else had this?
