Pcsx2 progress

Ratchet bugs are minimal but it's runs so slow.

>I did 4 years ago.
No you did not

>software mode.
end yourself

Actually it doesn't. I had bad settings.

Yes I did.

It will work in hardware mode soon. Ratchet is almost completely fixed, should be finished today or tomorrow.

>Yes I did.
I it certainly did not because even with a top tier i7 you won't be able to hit 60fps in fucking software rendering mode.
>I had bad settings.
Yes, software rendering instead of DX9 was one of them.

Can someone explain to a retard like me what exactly is the software rendering mode and why hardware is different and better?

>I it certainly did not because even with a top tier i7 you won't be able to hit 60fps in fucking software rendering mode.
But it do.

Software is more accurate but slow and native resolution. Hardware is the opposite.

Software mode dumps all of the work on the CPU in order to be as accurate as possible. CPUs can't crunch as much data as fast as GPU though so it's slower.
Hardware mode is the opposite: the load is balanced between GPU and CPU but the instructions are modified in order to fully exploit the GPU, but that causes glitches and other inaccuracies.

>shadows are still broken

Oh well, getting there.

What CPU did you use?

your brain has heavy slowdowns

Damn.

Software mode works on the CPU. CPUs are made to be flexible so you can do pretty much anything there, but on the other hand CPUs are not optimized towards graphics processing so they're an order of magnitude slower than GPUs at rendering tasks.

Hardware mode runs on the GPU, which should be much faster but also less flexible since it's restricted to what the graphic APIs (D3D, OGL) and the drivers specify. This lack of flexibility leads to inaccuracies and also necessitates messy workarounds to try and get around API limitations.

DX12/Vulkan GSDx when?

Mercenaries when?

What's with the fucking blur?

It's an upscale.

>not getting off native res as soon as fucking possible

>No one has a CPU good enough to make a game like J&D run at full speed in SW mode.

My i7 6700k is laughing at you

>upscaling textures
>in software mode

yes, I sure do love games being literally unplayable

I want you to boot the game and post a screeshot of the game speed in the same part as

seriously though how is this super demanding? my cpu is 4 or 5 years old.

No user, software mode has been fixed for years, it's hardware mode that's getting fixed right now. R&C runs fullspeed now with minor glitches.

Download the latest nightly and add this line to inis/GSdx.ini and make sure Mipmap support is turned on in software mode (it still shares code from SW mode, but this is for HW mode):
>UserHacks_mipmap = 1

Software mode in Jak games had issues last week still and some of them have been fixed and more issues will be fixed soon.

This is the only shot in that scene where the game doesn't crash down to sub-60fps

fpbp

>i-it doesn't count
Jesus Christ dude.

>Before GITHUB goes down when rumour of mipmap work goes vrial on the internet. ^^

>I have no plan to work on it yet. The purpose of this issue report is to concentrate all the mipmap issue into a single report instead of dozens of them. Less noise in the tracker + easier for tester.

OP is a faggot.

>Game runs at 60% of full speed during most of the intro
>Take one of the few segments where it actually runs well
>"Come on, it's not *that* demanding"

Keep scrolling down a bit more, he started working on it, and fixed most games already.

>9 days ago

>IT DOES NOT COUNT :(
Maybe if you stopped downloading gay porn your computer would work properly.

Okay, NOW we're getting somewhere. What's your CPU?

Just stop downloading gay porn.

Answer the question.

make me

>finally fixing mipmaps
>Hardware mode will be fixed soon.
WHERE MY BUDDIES AT??

word

>MIPMAPPING BEING FIXED
>IN HARDWARE MODE

DID SOMEONE SAY ACE COMBAT THREAD?

He probably just maxed out VU cycle stealing which produces fake FPS numbers and makes games run like shit.

ace combat is still buggy, but apparently better. he's fixing ratchet first then should move onto others.

FUCK YES

As long as he fixes mipmapping for everything then Ace Combat will be fixed too.

VU cycle stealing gives bugs for Jak

I have been waiting years for Ratchet and Clank's hardwaremode to be fixed.

When can I run Burnout 3 without fucked skyboxes?

It's strange but I tried emulating games I already played a couple of years ago and they all lag on new emulator versions. And they didn't back then and of course I don't remember what version I used back then.

HOLY SHIT IS ACE COMBAT GONNA WORK? I'M SORRY ABOUT ALL THE SHIT I TALKED ABOUT YOU PCSX2 I LOVE YOU

Accuracy has improved and drivers have changed. Use opengl now, should be faster.

You might have to mess with certain settings to get stuff working properly

What games?

>wtf I love pcsx2 now

>PCSX2 finally isn't shit
15 years on I can put my modded PS2 to rest.

I tried everything, even changed resolution to native and it seems it had no impact at all. I tried nocturne and dark cloud2.

Proper mipmapping in the Ratchet and Clank games would be so fucking great. I really want to replay though at 1080p.

those games should run on anything so you should probably upgrade or reformat your pc.

PC specs?

Friendly reminder that PS2 emulation will always be shit because the PS2 source code never got leaked like other plataforms with better emulators (GBA, Wii, GameCube, PSP)

I don't think RC1 has a widescreen hack.

I should just buy a physical copy. So much better than the sequel.

...

Did they ever fix MGS3 hardware mode?

yes

The remastered version on PS3 plays well fyi.

I was literally playing it a few minutes ago, I wish ND would make a current gen Jak, that would be so fucking cool dude

>I wish ND would make a current gen Jak

Given current Naughty Dog and how when they we're in the planning staged they wanted to make things looking more "realistic" I don't think you want that. Shit, current Naughty Dog thinks telling deep personal stories is priority number one these days anyways, so you definitely don't want them doing it

And by planning stages I mean planning stages for Jak 4 (which didn't get beyond the concept stage really)
