Question about Pete's GPU plugins

Earl · July 25th, 2001

From the SoftGPU readme
"and with this SoftGpu you will _not_ get
a better image quality by choosing 32 Bit modes."

The SoftGPU is the only one of Pete's plugins that has a 1:1 stretching option. So I guess my question is this:

If the other plugins had 1:1 stretching, and I used 32 bit color, would the colors be better? Or would it not make a difference?
Would one be more faithful to what a Playstation would actually be able to display?

I know it is not fair for epsxe for saying this...
But honestly if you want to go for software rendering, the best is to try VGS, not need to worry about config.!!!
This only my poor suggestion!!!

that's wrong. with pete's software plugin, the image quality is better than in vgs. and I can't stand the screen get chopped off in most of the games in vgs.

Really, sorry for my poor suggestion!!!
I mean, why we want to twist the pete's software plugin since we can use vgs easily with s/rendering!!!
Sorry, i didn't know that the image quality is much better!!!
