DjBlades Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 This is my first ever attempt at setting up PCSX2 so I guess the Noobs forum is the best place for it. I tried copying a config from another guy that apparently reached 60fps in Shadow of the Collossus and assorted games. I set it all up, but the game was ridiculously bright and run at nearly half speed, making it unplayable. I then found another config on youtube that used the same CPU as me, with a worse GPU (I have an i5 3570k and GTX 770), yet I copied his settings and it made the graphics look even worse with extremely low quality and white artifacts appearing, and still not a solid 60 as he got in his gameplay demonstration. I copied every setting from both examples, what could be causing such a slowdown for me? I'm using the latest dev build, could that be it?
Lordmonkus Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 PCSX2 is such a finicky emulator that it really is difficult to troubleshoot it sometimes because it really varies from game to game and individual systems. I would suggest watching this video from @SIMPLY AUSTIN on getting it setup and also checking out the wiki page for it for individual settings. http://wiki.pcsx2.net/index.php/Shadow_of_the_Colossus 1
DjBlades Posted July 10, 2017 Author Posted July 10, 2017 Turns out the video and post I were using were 7 years old. That's probably a pretty big reason Someone else gave me a config and it managed to get the game running really well, I'll give it another try when I get a better CPU I guess. Thanks for the youtube link though, I'll see if I can get any of my other games working with it.
TheMadMan007 Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 Any way you could share that config file? I just started messing around with it too.
mothergoose729 Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 You really want to consult the PSX2 wiki and configure everything your self. Also, upgrade to the latest nightly release, as there are huge improvements that have been made compared to the stable.
