MGS3 now emulates the bloom perfectly in hardware mode so with the 60fps patch it's the definitive way to play the game.
Ico now emulates the fog in hardware more so it's also the definitive way to play the game.
Okami emulates the rice filter too but the HD Remaster of the game looks better still, unless you really like the original rice filter.
Just enable partial CRC with OpenGL hardware mode and the half-pixel offset in hardware hacks using a newer git of pcsx2.
PS2 emulation is almost finished!
k
>only works on Nvidia
The jews strike again.
Other games may have regained missing effects too but I don't know of them.
>PS2 emulation is almost finished!
Fuck no. It won't be until hardware mode can do mipmapping.
>>337586495
What?
All metal gear games are meant to be played on playstation. Literally.
We still need Mipmapping in Hardware.
Only then it will be finished.
Without mipmapping games like Ratchet or Ace Combat Trilogy are completely fucked.
>>337586649
GSDX OGL is extremely slow on AMD hardware, to the point where it's unusable in most cases.
It isn't finished until I can play all ace combat games in full hardware mode.
Or I could just play it on the console.
>>337586839
That sounds like a problem to complain to AMD about
>>337586270
it only took them 15 years.
A playstation 2 and a copy of mgs3 would cost you like 20 dollars. Why even emulate?
Any news on Bladur's Gate Dark Alliance?
Been a while since i checked but last I looked that engine was still fucked.
>>337586797
Ace Combat and Ratchet both work in software mode afaik.
I think the only truly fucked games are from the Jak and Daxter series, mainly what I was talking about.
>>337586839
How is that anyone but AMDs fault? It's a driver issue.
>>337586270
the mgs3 HD version that came out already ran at 60fps on console, and it was official so I assume the bloom was working correctly too. I wouldnt say emulating it is the "definitive way to play"
>>337587012
>Ace Combat and Ratchet both work in software mode afaik.
Yep, but then you need a NASA CPU to play correctly.
>>337586894
>>337586981
Consoles can't play mgs3 at high resolution or solid 60fps.
>>337587008
Doesn't this work in software mode too?
>>337587021
Not 1080p, the FPS drops, and it's missing content from the PS2 version.
>>337587012
>Ace Combat and Ratchet both work in software mode afaik.

Well those exist at least.
>>337587173
>mainly what I was talking about.
Relax.
did they fix the overall performance?, because all that shit you mentioned only works for powerful machines, it is inexcusable that you need a good GPU + CPU to run crap that is more than 10 fucking years old, ps2 emulation sucks dick
>>337587008
>>337587153
Dark Alliance has been working in hardware mode for a year now.
Same with Champions.
Basically all Snowblind Engine games were fixed last year in hardware.
>>337587021
MGS3 ran at sub 30 on PS2 you faggot.
And the HD Collection is locked to 720p and STILL drops below 60 in many cutscenes and some gameplay sections.
This will let us play it in even 4K resolution at 60 FPS making it the definitive version.
>>337587273
You can't fix what isn't broken. Unless it's your shitty PC.
>>337587374
>This will let us play it in even 4K resolution at 60 FPS making it the definitive version.
Your PC would need to be a fucking monster to do this, it makes me hot just thinking about it.
>>337587258
>hurr durr emulation is shit because I'm retarded and know nothing about architecture
PS2 uses architecture that is completely alien to the PC x86 architecture and has literally nothing in common.
You need a beast of a PC to do all the code interpretation.
Get better PC and educate yourself and stop whining because the performance won't get better unless you get a better PC you uneducated subhuman nigger.

>>337587520
Give it 2-3 years and you will be able to do it no problem on Intel CPUs that will come out then.
>>337587632
How can you be so sure? i5 2XXX CPUs from a few years ago give near-identical performance as Skylake i5s in games.
>>337587556
>I'm comparing hardware manufacturer responses to brand new titles to their response to a fan-made emulator of a 10+ year old system
You can't be serious
>>337587632
No you could do it now, the PC would just be so high spec and/or OC'd that it could play anything at that spec. MGS3 with 60fps at 4k during cutscenes is pretty damn intensive especially the performance intensive ones.
>>337587756
Emulation is different.
>>337587756
Emulation is different from commercial games.
New architetures add new features and instruction sets which then get incorporated by emulation for a substantial improvement.
Emulation is one of those few things other than video processing and compressing archives where each new CPU generation is a visible improvement to performance.
Will post some old gifs showing what has been fixed for hardware mode.
>>337587623
Hi gregory
>>337587789
What are you even talking about?
>>337588030
Is there a hack to disable the bloom? I legitimately thought that lack of it was an improvement rather than downgrade. I know it wasn't accurate emulation but it looked better to me.
I have a 3.0Ghz C2Quad because I'm a bum. can I run PCSX2 satisfactorily?
native with widescreen hacks would suffice for me.
>>337588183
How about you just try for yourself?
>>337588136
Just don't play with the OpenGL settings mentioned in the OP.
>tfw took me 3 hours to get pressure sensitivity working on pcsx2
The more important question is if MGS2 works perfectly
>>337588370
Has for years?
>>337588247
I recently got this setup, had to replace/upgrade some parts. they're still in the mail.
>>337587539
nice excuse, meanwhile wii emulation is perfect and runs pretty damn good even on toasters, your ps2 emulation is shit, admit it.
>>337588468
Coincidentally, the Wii's processor has an architecture closer to modern CPUs.
>>337588468
pcsx2 runs better on toasters anon
this threads reminds me of the San Andreas PC port.
it looked absolutely terrible without the PS2 post processing stuff.
>>337588624
fuck no, I can run xenoblade at 2x native resolution with perfect FPS, while I still get drops on fucking dragon quest VIII
>>337588468
Wii architecture is far closer to PC than PS2 you fucking inbred retard.
Okami looks great in motion with the rice filter but in screenshots it's still a blurry mess like it was before. I tried fixing it last night with some shaders but no luck.
It makes no sense since in motion it looks completely fine. I wonder if some hardware hack would fix the pixel misalignment.
>>337588468
That's because wii emulation was done when gamecube emulation was finished. Nintendo cheating by not actually upgrading their system from one gen to another.
>>337587021
MGS3 HD had cut content. Can't play the nightmare minigame or listen to the radio call relating to it.
How do I play GT4? It still chuggs even in the PAL version even though I have 30%~ usage across all my cores and roughly 80% GPU.
Does Ace Combat 4 work on AMD hardware yet? Last time I tried I started getting awful slowdown after a few missions, plus some graphical glitches.
>>337586270
And yet the jak games still need work
