radeon and framebuffer reads for ff9

[bardack]

Well the title says it:

Can i use the radeon to read the frammebuffer in ff9? i have lod and i have to use the emulated vram to play it...any suggestion?

Tnx and bye

You can try it. If it doesn't work, then no, you can't. And make sure you're using the latest drivers.

i was just wondering, 'couse i still have to get ff9...so does somebody out there with a radeon and processor close to my duron800 get a good result with ff9 or lod?

The framebuffer should work with your Radeon,I don't see why it shouldn't?

[bardack]

I dunno why it came in my mind, but i read somewhere that some cards doesn't read the framebuffer, plus i had to switch emulated vram for lod...so i i got some suspects..

but anyway tnx

Disable Framebuffer writes in the Special Game Fixes when playing Final Fantasy 9 otherwise ePSXe will crash.

1) It says so in the documents
2) I've tried it and it doesn't work with FF9

I hope this is the answer your looking for.

Framebuffer: 2: Gfx card buffer - Can be slow
It doesn't work with FSAA
The best option with FSAA is:
Framebuffer: 1: Black - Fast but not special effects
