Are there any GPU plugins out there that can display 2D Capcom games correctly? All the games that I have use a resolution of 384x240 (save Darkstalkers 3 which uses 360x240, and Street Fighter Alpha 2 which doesn't work at all), yet they all are displayed as 368x240, which crops the image. Darkstalkers 3 is displayed as 362x240, which adds garbage. Taking a VRAM dump with Pete's software plugin gives a correct image, but every plugin I've tried simply will not display the games correctly while playing them. Is there one out there that does?

you'll have to make a better config then you'll have better results for it ! But i have a insider info for you ! if you like those 2D fighting games use mugen (350 fighteres).

As far as I know, every single emulator out there (I haven't tried FPSe yet so I don't know) display Capcom games like that... the right portion slightly cropped... why? I'm not sure.

most of those games are CPS2 and PSX conversion of those games mostly sucked anyway why don't you try CPS2 emus(arcade perfect graphics and sound even has better FPS than the PSX version!)

Maybe because he owns the cds for these games while he doesn't own the hardware for those? e.g. legal emulation.

True, but Pocket Fighter and Marvel Vs. Capcom are still encrypted, plus Street Fighter Alpha 3 has the extra characters on the Playstation version (and looks better, IMO). Not to mention that Darkstalkers 3 doesn't really have a CPS2 equivelant.

Also don't forget--what "sucks" for you might be enjoyable for others.

Umm.. Darkstalkers 3 aka Vampire Savior is emulated in the current cps2 emus.. Its a cps2 game.. check this shot of it running on winkawaks, a cps2 emulator..

Its only a matter of time when MvC and Pocket fighters will be released.. THey will soon enough.. I like playing sfa3 with cps2 emulators better than Psx conversions.. Which is noticeably lost a bunch of frames of animation from the arcade version of the game.. ie.. Karins opening animations.. Now cps2 conversions on the sega saturn is a different story.. It has the benefit of having all those extra characters and having most, if not all of the animation frames..

Plus the current cps2 emus has some cool video blitter which makes the game look way better than running it on a psx... These shots I took use one of those cool video blitters.. Did I also mention that all the current cps2 emus allow you to play online against people using Kaillera.. Psx conversions cant do that..

This isn't supposed to be a CPS2 thread, as I am fully aware of what goes on with CPS2. I was just simply seeing if there was any GPU that can display 2D Capcom Playstation games correctly.

In regards to Kaillera, it doesn't work too swell on a 56K connection (which I have). Also, Darkstalkers 3: Jedah's Damnation was an early version of Vampire Savior USA (the name changed back to VS for official release). Darkstalkers 3 on Playstation includes Donnivan, Pyron, and Phobos, among others, and is based on the Vampire Savior 2 engine. Plus it has a cool create-a-character function.

I tried to use a dedicated broad band line to play the cps2 games online,but ,the result is not too good......well.i connected to those servers located at Japan, Taiwan,Usa ... which were far away from my country. ( really cant find anone from my country... )

I guess the play online thingy is good if we play it through LAN.

Ok here is how Marvel VS CApcom looks on my system using lewpys glide pluggin running on a voodoo 5 5500 with 4xFSAA on at a resolution of 640x480.. Full speed..

 

[fivefeet8]

This is running in epsxe 1.4.. Perfect gameplay and sound my friend..

 

[fivefeet8]

Missing a ton of animation frames though.. Arcade version is way better than the psx version.. But if all you have is the psx.. Looks good on epsxe doesn't it?

 

[Nightmare]

The graphics look good.But i prefer the arcade version.

 

[fivefeet8]

exactly.. But these are just still frames.. Seeing the game in motion is rather disappointing compared to the arcade version.. What can you do? The psx only has 2 mb of ram.. Atleast some of the gameplay is still intact.. Kinda sucks with no switching characters though..

 

[Palom]

Argh

Yes, I can play them, too. Just notice that in the picture of Jin vs. Morrigan, 2P Morrigan's portrait is pretty much cut in half because the GPU is unnecessarily cropping the image. That's all I was really searching for.

 

[fivefeet8]

Hey Palom.. Have you tried playing those games on a real psx and does it crop them too.. I think some of those capcom 2d fighters has options to change the screen size or move the screen.. Check this option in MvC..

 

[fivefeet8]

Here is another shot taken of MvC when I moved the screen some spaces to the left.. As you can see, Megaman's portrate isn't as cut off as before.. I see that it got cropped off at both ends now, but at least its not one sided anymore..
