I'm trying FF9 with ePSXe now and so far I'm thrilled! I thought I wouldn't ever be able to play it since I don't own a PSX.
Anyway, I think I have my system configured pretty well after all the ChronoCross troubleshooting, but there's still one problem in FF9: when I go from scene to scene or in and out of battles, things get really stuttery and slow down until its loaded, and FPS goes anywhere from 70 (which I have it set for) to 30. It's especially apparent in battles, when the music will pause for a second or two a couple times while the screen is doing the flashy-swirl thing and loading.
I figured my system (1200Ghz Tbird, GF2 Pro, 256mb RAM) should be able to handle the game. Is it just that I'm playing it on an emu so I should expect inconsistent performance like this? (If that's the case, that's cool... I'd just like to know.) Otherwise, do I need to fiddle with my sound or gpu plugins? Here's my video config, I'll put the sound config in a continuation of this post:
