How To Speed Up Game? (Not FPS but Game Time Wise)

10-03-2011, 02:04 PM #1

Is there anyway to speed up the game time such as running the game at 100%+ speeds and up? Similar to VBA (Visual Boy Advance) where you just hold space and the game speeds up to 400%+ so you can skip those boring intros. In-game speed up wise not FPS.

VBA plays at 400% because it turns off the framelimiter and plays the game at 120fps/240fps+ (instead of 30/60 fps)
So to do the same thing with dolphin you'd just turn off the framelimiter, but you'd have to be able to get a higher fps than normal.

I've tried that on dolphin 3.0 lowest settings and despite my computer being a beast running the game at 1080p max settings the game still doesn't speed up on lowest settings. Help? I'm trying to speed up the game so I don't go through boring cutscenes and intros.

What are your specs? And what game are you running?

You have to turn off framelimit AND audio throttle.

Or you can hold down the TAB key for a temporary speed up.

I've turned Framelimit off and Audio Throttle off and I'm able to run the game at 175% max at lowest settings. Still can't go any faster. Any suggestions on how to make the game run much faster such as 500%+?

3.2Ghz barely run most game 100% (Dolphin use 2 core anyway)
Overclock your CPU to 4.0Ghz+ !!! But even so ...500% for all game is impossible

And why the hell do you want games to run such fast?

Yeah but too fast Big Grin

Btw it looks blasphemous to me to skip an intro or a cutscene etc in a game
