Is it just wishful thinking for me to imagine that Sony (or MS or Nintendo) would have no problem developing their own PC-based emulators and releasing it on Steam so that people can enjoy their old classics in updated glory?
I would double dip SO hard.

What does it matter if a customer buys their old games on console or PC? They're getting a sale either way. Some customers might even buy it on both.vazel said:

Got a question, been playing FFXII this way and it looks and runs great. However, I do have one problem that others don't seem to have: Alpha maps in the game are screwed up.
For example, when I enter new areas and the name of the area pops up, the name has a white rectangle around it that should be invisible. The same thing happens in a couple of other situations. For example, before the fight with firemane, it flies around. Again I see a square around it with white edges.
Anyone got an idea how to fix this?
Edit: As they say, a picture says more then a thousand words.

I'm playing with a fairly recent svn build (from end of januari). Interestingly when looking for ffxii pcsx2 on google this is one of the first screenshots I find:
And yeah, the game is fantastic, but for some reason I've never been able to finish it. Hopefully I'll last to the end on this try.
The newer builds are fairly different than the beta/stable versions.
I've noticed, in FFXII, that some characters in the cutscenes have ghosting, though that may be intended as a depth-of-field trick at lower resolutions that wasn't emulated before.
Seems like there should be a new beta soon.

What sound plugin are you using for FFXII? P.E.O.P. sounds the best from the 3 plugins I have, but It causes some odd stuttering in the FMV cutscenes.
SPU2 and zeroSPU2 both sound like garbage, although those plugins play FMVs pretty smoothe. Are there any other viable options for sound plugins?

I'm using SPU2-X(r2709) set to DirectSound.
r2711 doesn't seem to have the title card problem
Here's the other problem I was talking about:
School internet does not like uploading at all, had to do them 1 at a time and they took 4 minutes each.
It's not that the upload speed is ridiculously low, it just doesn't work right.

God of War II:
For some reason, it crashes when you try to access a save point, even on the stable build.
Runs slow when above native res
Graphical Problems so far-
Major
- Ghosting (as seen in most pics) Not present at native resolution
Minor
- Wavy lines underwater (image 10)
Grade: C- (B- if saves worked)
Playable, but not at an enjoyable speed or resolution.

Shadow of the Colossus:
Special Settings:
-Need to enable 3x Speed Hack to get playable.
Graphical Problems:
Major
-None of note
Minor
-Possibly amount of bloom changing with resolution
-Minor shadow ghosting
-Minor geometry glitches
-Alpha problems? (Pic 13) Not sure if that's how it's supposed to look
Grade: B+
Playable at decent resolution, but a tiny bit slow.

if you have coded/compiled stuff before not really.cory said:
here is todays build

HomerSimpson-Man said:I see others have a Phenom II x3 720 clocked at 2.8Ghz and up running this emulator extremely well now, I'm pleased to here that.
I have a Phenom II x3 720 overclocked at 3.6Ghz. Can't wait to test out my games hooked up to my HDtv.
Are you sure I have a Phenom II X3 720 aswell. Can I play games at 720p fullspeed
In the Hi-res PC thread, a lot of people use http://imagehost.org/ or abload.de but the latter is in another language. I haven't tried it myself, I use fotki.com, but that's the site I use for my personal pics as well. Its up to you, I just hate using imagevenue cause when you try to close a pop up, it brings you to a porn site.cory said:
Question:
I notice that in my DQVIII, there is more aliasing going on that what other people are having in their screens in this thread. Was wondering if anyone could tell me some settings modifications I should make, because GSdx doesn't have any AA settings that I can see.

Only if you're outputting to less than the scaled resolution.Antagon said:
So it *can* be supersampling, but not always depending on the setup.
I can not get GT4 to work at all, even with the skip movie patch, it hangs on the first screen.
I've tried it in multiple revisions, though the ones with the new UI don't support patches.

I'll keep this in mind for when I get a controller for my PC. I've been wanting to beat KH2.
yeah, uh, this is how mine looks:cory said:Only if you're outputting to less than the scaled resolution.

The DX11 renderer is the same as DX10, but with more bugs.
I would use DX10 and the newest plugin pack
If scaling doesn't work, try forcing AA/AF in Catalyst.
If you feel comfortable using an SVN, S.L. posted a build a few posts up.

You can either set the internal resolution higher or if you have a Nvidia card and Nhancer you can set it to the same resolution and force MSAA with Stalker set as your compatibility. At least that is what I recall working. MSAA in FF12 looks really good but since DQ8 is rendered in a weird way SSAA makes it looks so much better. For anyone wondering, I've beaten DQ8 on PCSX2 so it is possible.GaimeGuy said:
