I don't know what you're trying to play, but try increasing Offscreen Drawing to "Extra" or higher. Also try setting Framebuffer Access to Read/Write, it will show more effects from the game(if your game has those effects).

 

[Lewpy]

... and switch off FrontBuffer Rendering Fix.

Hey ryu_joko, you can see the codec frequency by changing Polygon Mode to Wireframe. There seems to be a bug in Lewpy's plugin. The codec frequency is located in the lower left corner at least on my voodoo1. You could also make one of the plugins four settings wireframe and use it only when modifying codec frequencies.

It's quite obvious what's the problem in MGS codec screen, the frequency (and meter when speaking) are misaligned and thus not visible when using texturing. The volume meter is aligned properly to the frequency.

PS. Lewpy i emailed you to [email protected] but it seems to be dead:

I've spoken to Bobbi, and the email has been set up again. Try sending the message again, and I should get it.

Ok, sorry Lewpy for not seeing this earlier but the Mask Bit needs to be enabled. Then the codec frequency is visible and also the framebuffer effects are visible when Offscreen Drawing is Full.
I still don't know why the frequency screen is drawn twice.

To make things look good:
use MultiPass
Read/Write (don't know if this matters...)
Ofscreen drw: Full
Mask Bit enabled
ePSXe v1.40 internal SPU

It draws it twice because the first pass just draws the entire screen with no highlights, the second pass adds the highlights (the actually "lit" parts of the LCD-style display).
It's just the way the developers decided to do it, and they probably used the maskbit so they could just use a simple quad to do the highlighting, by masking off the area that needs highlighted ....
Oh the fun of PSX emulation!

I remember there were numerous benchmarks comparing the two cards and it was ultimately determined by almost every hardware site and magazine that the TNT2 Ultra was faster than the Voodoo 3 3500. According to one magazine (MaximumPC), in all but the half-life timedemo the fastest TNT2 (Hercules TNT2 Ultra) was able to beat the fastest Voodoo 3. The TNT2 was the card that stole the performance crown from 3dfx, and the GeForce256 (released 6 months later) confirmed Nvidia's dominance. The tests were done using Direct3D and OpenGL, since the TNT2 cannot do Glide. In Glide games the Voodoo 3 did very well, but it was a dying API.
