Support - Graphics Tomb Raider Underworld cutscenes

2 Upvotes

While the graphics for the actual game look fine and plays well, the cutscenes are lacking with be very blocky. I played around with tbe graphics settings but couldn't find a good configuration that made the cutscenes and the opening title look as it normally would on the PS2. Any advice on what settings I could use to help make everything look as it should?

Support - Controller Good morning everyone, i need a litle help with the emulation of Shadow of the colossus

2 Upvotes

The game runs fine, but i have an issue, i cant climb. I already mapped my joystick (pc joystick - redragon) but the issue is that every time i try to climb with L1, L2, R1 or R2 the character begins to twitch like im pushing the button constantly but supper fast, wich makes the character falls and cant climb anything. I tried remaping it, with R3 and L3 and works perfectly, but is super uncomfortable to use like that.

Support - Performance Any tips for Stuntman settings with the reliquary build?

4 Upvotes

Hey guys, I was reading about the reliquary build that allows Stuntman to actually function; very excited as it was one of my favorite games. However, upon loading it up and enabling the settings for the float, etc, the game still has massive slowdowns. After reading some posts, I was under the impression it was in a pretty good/smooth state. Any advice is appreciated as I haven’t tried emulating in years.

My rig is a 4070 super and an i7-12700k with tons of ram.

Thanks guys!

Support - General How do I replace a corrupted game file with another one without losing game progress?

0 Upvotes

I was playing a game that was having problems with some versions. I reached the middle of the game, but unfortunately, it froze at one of the levels and it was difficult to complete.

I currently have another copy of the file and I want to replace it in the emulator, but I don't know how.

Support - General How to rip audio from ISO files?

5 Upvotes

Shot in the dark, not sure if this is the right place to ask but figured I'd start here. I'm trying to rip some audio files from my NHL 06 .iso, specifically just the play-by-play/announcer audio. I've managed to extract .asf files using Watto Studio's Game Extractor, but the .asf files are unplayable, either in the wrong codec or corrupted. Does anyone know of a way I can get these audio files in a usable format? Or of a different subreddit I should be asking?

Support - General Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition Remix (missing Motion Blur)

2 Upvotes

Hi,

I’m having an issue with Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition Remix.

Normally when driving fast in-game you get motion blur, but on my end it is completely missing no matter the emulator settings.

In Software Mode the motion blur is present and looks correct.

I play at native resolution with default/clean settings. No widescreen or no-interlace patches are active.

Weirdly, I can’t find any complaints about this online.

To make sure, I tested the game on my PC (PCSX2 nightly) as well as on Android (ARMSX2 and NetherSX2). In all cases the motion blur is completely missing in Hardware mode.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Support - General Busco un Romhacker/Modder de PS2 para un problema de **Skin Swap** directo, plisss🙏🏻(code Lyoko quest For infinity)

1 Upvotes

Estoy buscando hacer un cambio de skin directo en Code Lyoko para PS2 (versión de EE. UU.) para controlar al sub-boss William en vez del personaje jugable Ulrich durante el combate a pie, usando la malla y las texturas de William mientras heredo las animaciones y las entradas del control de Ulrich para evitar cuelgues. Logré descomprimir el archivo de gráficos del nivel usando QuickBMS (Zlib) y usé HxD para aislar la geometría pura de William (952 vértices / B8 03) con una longitud recortada de 2CAC bytes, sobrescribiéndolo directamente por paste-write (Control + B) sobre el bloque de Ulrich. Después de reconstruir el .pc e inyectarlo en el ISO con Apache3, el mod queda 100% estable y el emulador PCSX2 inicia el nivel a la perfección, sin pantallas negras ni cuelgues; pero el motor gráfico de Neko Entertainment ignora el cambio y todavía renderiza a Ulrich visualmente, probablemente porque restaura su modelo desde una caché global de personajes o desde un contenedor. También intenté forzar el ID del outfit de William modificando los parámetros debajo del nodo PLAYER_START dentro del archivo de script lógico (.cp2), pero eso dispara una pantalla de carga infinita, así que necesito ayuda de un modder con experiencia que sepa cómo redirigir punteros de personaje correctamente o saltarse la caché global de assets en este motor.

Support - Performance Weird problems with Pcsx2 and Linux

2 Upvotes

Early this year, I started playing the Silent Hill franchise through Pcsx2 on windows, and it was really nice! 30fps caped, no visual bugs, no frame drops in both Sh2 and Sh3. The problem started when I moved to Linux. The same isos, same bios and the same configurations (only the DirectX was the difference), but the games were jumping frames. Even with V Sync and all the things related to fps, the game was still jumping through 30 and then 28-25. The weird part is that the Pcsx2 doesn't show that lag. The emulator says that the game is 100% at 30fps and the screen 60fps, but it's not. I'm using the RetroArch Ps2 Core and it's completely fine there, but I wanted to use Pcsx2 because of the UI. Any idea of what is causing the "lags"?

When I'm GTA: San Andreas from disc onto PCSX2, it stutters. This may be because the games loads assets in real-time, thus the stutter every time I explore an area anywhere. Is there a fix for this? And no, I don't want to copy the ISO onto my computer
