Support - Performance Screen dims when going Full Screen on my TV
Any tips on keeping my screen from dimming when going into full screen . I know its and HDR issue of some sort from research . Only happens when im running Vulkan but I need to use that renderer cause games run the best with that one. Ive tried borderless fullscreen, changing the Vulkan/OpenGL present method to Prefer layered on DXGI also has done nothing ive tried messing with Nvidia app setting as well with no luck. Any help/tips appreciated.

Support - Controller Good morning everyone, i need a litle help with the emulation of Shadow of the colossus
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?
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?
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 Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition Remix (missing Motion Blur)
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 How to rip audio from ISO files?
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 Busco un Romhacker/Modder de PS2 para un problema de **Skin Swap** directo, plisss🙏🏻(code Lyoko quest For infinity)
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
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"?

Support - General Help I feel dumb
TLDR wont boot stuck in loop and only fix is uninstall and reinstall. It is on my HDD and windows is on my SSD the only error reports I ever got were about issues with dll files most of the time it doesn't even give an error report.
So years ago I had the emulator up and running no problem, I had to clear out a bunch of data. I got rid of it and eventually got around to putting it back on my PC. Got the emulator setup and everything functioning perfectly fine. I had restarted and shut down my computer several times to make sure everything was going to work. Everything seemed fine so I had things to do kept me preoccupied for several days 3 Days Later came back to the BC and the emulator won't boot with hard drive it gets stuck in a loop pulling the exact same amount of data at the exact same intervals pulling the activity rate to 100% in the past I had an issue with Windows going into hibernation mode and turning the power off on my GPU and refusing to wake it up when I would go to use it so I had to change some settings I assumed that there's a possibility that something similar is happening because it's messing with dll files and communicating back and forth between the SSD and the HDD. I turned all of the antivirus protection off assuming Windows is disallowing it but that changed nothing. I've looked into things where it mentions the possibility of it hitching up because the SSD is trying to ask for data faster than the HDD can respond causing it to go into a loop that doesn't seem to be the issue I have literally spent almost all of my free time in the last month trying to resolve this issue going through numerous different routes that I could sit here and endlessly explain. The only thing that fixes it is to do a total uninstall and reinstall I can take and save all of the folders with my settings and everything put them aside and instantly have all of my things back so it has nothing to do with my settings I'm hoping my hard drive is not failing it shouldn't it's brand new and is a pretty good quality hard drive but I do understand that's still a possibility. I have reinstalled everything to my desktop on my SSD I'm going to see if that helps the issue. I'll have to check back in a couple days to see if the problem is going to be resolved by moving it there even though I would prefer to have it on the hard drive if it does resolve the issue I would like further explanation as to why because other than a failing brand new hard drive the only other thing I can think of is something about some piece of software regarding Windows is disallowing this operation to function properly or to take place at all either through a problem or through permission issues I have exhausted myself mentally trying to figure this out I have learned a lot more about computers and emulators in the last month then I have in years I just want to play my old school video games and soak in my nostalgia it's been pretty rough lately and it's about the only desire I have to do anything lightly so I would really appreciate any help sorry for the punctuation and grammar I started using speech to text got a little lazy got a lot of stuff going on.
