If you haven't gotten it by now, download RivaTuner/D3DOverrider!!! - saltboy - 01-07-2011
Huge thanks to the authors for this awesome emulator.
For the longest time, I've been having problems with occasional slowdowns in the graphics. No matter how many settings I put in and changed, the slowdown still occurred. Until now.
I just barely discovered the concept behind triple-buffering, something I *should* have discovered a LONG TIME AGO.
I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend reading the post from this link:
http://www.gamecritics.com/triple-buffering-improve-your-pc-gaming-performance-for-free
and then download Rivatuner if you haven't yet. Once I activated D3DOverrider, the framerate problem I was having went away. I'm now getting 60 fps in just about every game without any glitches/hitches/hiccups. It's awesome!!
<-- Doing the happy dance.

Just curious Saltboy, what are your PC specifications?

oh god, I AM NOT explaining why the articles claiming Triplebuffering reduces input lag are flawed and based on faulty information again.
only bother with this if you want additional input lag, you will ALWAYS GET MORE input lag by enabling triplebuffering on Direct3D.

only valid for the opengl plugin.

I don't notice any input lag myself, but yes, in theory, it should happen.
My specs:
Q9550 @ 2.83 ghz
Radeon 4890
SMB Wii and SSBB are perfect framerate wise. SMBGalaxy has a few slowdowns, as well as Kirby's Epic Yarn, but they're not too distracting.
anything else you wanna know?
