disable filtered mdecs in petes ogl pluggin config.. Its near the bottom.. I forgot what its exactly called but its "filtered" something.. I am at school so I can't look it up either..

 

[EXE]

i have disable the Unfiltered framebuffer updates option... but still same... i make easy screen shot and take a look

 

[fivefeet8]

Try using iori's spu.. Run the game off an iso.. oops.. What I meant to say in my first post was.. Enable that option.. hehe..Sorry about that.. so enable "UNfiltered framebuffer reads"

Shouldn't be nearly that slow...what are your settings?

 

[Dark Watcher]

Hmmm

Indeed..please take a screenshot of your plugin settings...

In regards to MDEC speed

Software rendering is what gives the fastest MDEC speed.
I have a K6-2/500 and I get around 40-60fps with Pete's Soft plugin. However if I use Direct3D (my video card, a Trident 3DImàge 975, emulates the Direct3D support up to 5.0, that's why it's only good for testing) I get no more than 4fps. With that powerhouse (P4/1.5GHz) you should get constant 60fps with software rendering.

Quick question here: how do you copy all the plugin info to the clipboard? Thanks...

 

[Takuma_Sakazaki]

Copying plugin settings to clipboard

Pete has added a "Copy Settings to Clipboard" button to his GPU plugins in version 1.53.

I think your card can render in 32bit, maybe slow (not sure), but you don't need to sacrifice so much visual quality for speed...
Change the pixel format from R4G4B4A4 to R8G8B8A8 and change your resolution to 32bit too. Who knows? It may fix your problem too. And how about your drivers? Make sure they're up-to-date.

I don't know if you're running the game from an ISO, but if not, try using Pete's CDR driver. I got much better fps on MDECs after I started using this driver.

Hmmm, that's an idea. Although it would be recomended to everyone, you can make an ISO of the CD and play from there. Maybe your cdrom drive doesn't like PSX cds, although it can read them, it don't read fast enough. Well, just a guess though.

 

[EXE]

My old pc run Mdec too faster.. now my new pc run Mdec slow.. i thinking maybe my new pc don't support MMX..

Q:Where i see my pc support MMX?

 

[Fou-lu]

Pentiums after P166MMX all support MMX, that's not the case though.

 

[Fr0g]

I think all Celeron/PII/PIII/P4 or Duron K6-II/Athlon supports MMX...
Not sure tho...

 

[pigeonblood]

try this

use iori spu newest version set sound buffer to 8-15 a few at time, play with thosesettings, i have a amdk6-266cpu and i get at least 40fps depending on settings and plugins and game
