This one i compiled pcsx2SSE2-0.8.1 on Intel c++ compilier 9.0 using vc2003 and turn on optimize with

-Intel Pentium(R) 4 Processor with Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (SSE3) (/QxP)
-Enable Parallelization (/Qparallel)
-Maximize Speed plus High Level Optimizations (/O3) [Intel C++]

if your cpu not have sse3 feature ,illegal intruction exception will raise when sse3 intruction get executed(maybe crashed).

not tested yet because i dont' have sse3 enabled processor .
test and report me will be cool.

Best regard.

Please re attach - my sincere apologies.

sounds interesting. hopefully microsoft's compiler will support this soon. After all the FX57 was just released with SSE3 support on it.

if you not have sse3 it will can't be run.

edit - my fault! I didn't realize 0.8.1 was our release.. oops! I've unlocked this thread and you can re-attach it, Teerayoot.. my sincerest apologies!

:heh:

Still, automatically compiling for a specific instruction set isn't likely to have much or any affect on performance.. with something like PCSX2, it has to be hand-optimized for any big performance gains.

getting any positive effect is better than none

I tried this out on an extreme edition P4 that supports SSE3 (verified that it supports those instructions with CPU ID) and I get the following error: This application has failed to start because gnu_gettext.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Seems like something may have gotten lost in the recompiling.

please redownload new compiled.
-require intel processor extention are remove but still compile for sse3 and add /O3 flag

i don't khow what cause the problem i just open->set->then compile.

hope it will get much improvement because i see a lot of special sse3 intruction compiler generate when decompiled it :)

Thank you for pcsx2 author for great work.

Note: Give me the plugin source code are wellcome .
Bye.

Yeah, I just tested it too. (Thanks for the dll). I didn't notice any difference from the current release. May be as cooliscool said about it needing to be hand optimized to utilize these instructions for performance gain. No biggie.
