Any other way to limit FPS?

[naroth]

Well ... the only way I know is by activating the "enable other audio" under the hlle plugin, but I realized that if you unckeck all 3 and select nullsound you actually get a decent speed boost, but sometimes the speed goes crazy and is way too fast! ... is any other way to limit FPS?
thanks.

Activating msaa will slow down the game and dont forget to activate "use real xfb " or u will get a black screen.

Real XFB issue was fixed long time ago. You may try to disable Idle Skipping, in most cases it helps.

[naroth]

yeah but if I activate msaa it actually slowsdown the game (where it runs fast) but in the parts that runs slow, its so slow that it gets unplayable .... if I disable idle skipping makes the game slower but with no speed boost ... guess I´ll have to deal with it ... hopefully you´ll add a FPS selector in a new release. thanks

What exactly do you expect from a FPS limiter? And for what special case do you need it? If you use Idle Skipping you shouldn't have any Problems with to fast speeds...

Well Im just saying.
If I enable idle skip=speed up
If I disable All sound=speed up

But FPS SOMETIMES go crazy, So I was wondering If you could put an FPS limiter or something similar, So I can use those speed ups. Thanks again n_n

Yeah this happens to me as well, It already runs well on my current settings (idle skip, dual layer and Optimize Quantitizers on and turned off lock threads to core)

Sometimes however it runs over the FPS it should (Which is 50 or 60 I believe) and if I turn off throttle sound it goes overspeed which I cannot react, Yes a way to limit FPS is needed imo so it won't go over 50 or 60 (I believe the maximum FPS a human eye can catch is 60 or so I have been thought so many games run at 60 FPS I believe, Correct me if I'm wrong)

I actually have the opposite problem. I would like it to go 'crazy,' as it were. What is the Dolphin equivalent of disabling "Limit" on PCSX2?

[nosound97]

Ask it on PCSX2 forum

Just ignore the FPS .. it's a little more tricky in DC mode, as the FPS shown are just from the GPU Part, so whatever they do there should have no impact on the acctual Speed of the Game. Whenever the GAME ( in this case the CPU Thread ) runs to slow, dolphin puts itself into shoot sleep periods, so i can't imagine that games run to fast ( Excluding some hacks ;-))
