starfox 2 speeds
-
has anyone got this working without sound stuttering, i see people have used it on your tube with better performance than i can get. i am using pi 3 with lr snes9x2005(seems to be the fastest) with latest build 4.3.7, thanks
-
The ability for lr-snes9x2010 to identify the game as needing a speed hack was introduced recently, so updating it from source in the RetroPie Setup might be enough. If it still gives you trouble, try dropping your render resolution to 800x600 from the runcommand menu and that should do the trick. Currently, I'm running lr-snes9x2005 at 800x600 and I haven't noticed any slowdown.
-
thanks mate i check it out
-
800x600 @ ? which hz clock freq mate
-
It depends on the display, but mine's at 60hz.
-
so i got a 1080p display running at 60 hz , can u give me a step by step, before game run hit a to getup run command . then go to ?, sorry a little bit confused. thanks
-
and do all your cut sequences run perfect thanks
-
then go to ?
There should be a listing that says something in the neighborhood of 'Video Render Mode'. From there you would set it to 800x600 at whatever hz is appropriate (if you're in a PAL region you might try 50) and from there you can back out to the first menu and lauch game should be at the bottom. I've kept the frame rate monitor in ReroArch up while playing and I never noticed it dipping below 60fps, even during the cut scenes.

Update snes9x2010 from source. there has been an update to it that adds superfx speed hack to star fox 2. The retropie binaries have not been updated.
-
There's been some reports that claim it's not quite enough for the Pi3, which might still make the resolution drop necessary. I haven't tried the new build out myself, so I can't confirm one way or another.
-
@mediamogul I have tried the new build. You do get the occasional hiccup as you do with other superfx games on the pi, but not often and runs pretty much full speed.
-
That's good to know. I've got all the SuperFX games running at a steady 60fps on mine with lr-snes9x2005 at the lower res. From the sound of it, those little hiccups might be ironed out the same way with 2010 now. I'll have to give it shot. 2005 has some potential timing issues that I'd like to leave behind if I could.

thanks for your help mate, i updated everything from up source,
emulator lr-snes9x2005
video mode dmt-9 800x600 @60hz 4.3, clock 40mhz progressive

still getting scratchy sound on Nintendo logo and cut scenes . when i start the star destroyer cut scene (scratchy losing frames) and when playing inside when transformed
no shaders or overlay
thanks anyway for your helpalso star fox music slowing down and scratch when lot on screen
-
@juice problem with snes9x2005 is that it runs Starfox 1 and 2 too fast.
-
just updating from source
-
it was not to fast on mine just seemed to be dropping frames looks normal speed to how i remember it when i had cart , but was over 20 year ago. but thanks for all the info. i getting tired it 5am uk here so brain bit mashed lol
-
@juice star fox 2 is not that noticeable unless you compare it to it running on real hardware or snes classic. Star fox 1 on the other hand just plainly runs too fast, unless theres been a fix.
-
i did update from binaries last time so that could be it, still updating from source . do all my resolutions setting look right tho, just to confirm
