FPS in FF9 NTSC problems

[BaSSlin3r]

this is really weird i mucked around with my epsxe settings to get the battle to work without flashing and i managed to do that and now everything "looks good" but the FPS is all stuffed up like in video's it runs way to fast and in the battle mode it runs way to fast like twice as fast, but in normal walken around mode its fine and i turned show fps on and they say that its running at 28.6 all the time and yea......weird

If you are using Pete's Opengl/D3D plugins, set the frame limiter to on..

[smartguy15_2000]

best use pete's openGL 1.5.5 GPU with frame limit on, manually set frame limit to 60 (alot of people use it that way, including myself, works wonders...D3D apparently doesn't make ALOT of difference, the background and character detail are more smooth)

I tried running d3d with my p4 1.7 ghz, geforce2 ti 64 meg DDR ram graph card, 16x dvd rom, and it lags...low fps too...so i wouldn't push my luck! If you have a better comp with crazy arse mods, then go for it )

for fps settings, use 60 fps for ntsc and 50 fps for pal.
for more infonmation, go HERE .

and it's good to search the board first before you ask something....

yea i already tried that sorry the game ran too fast in normal mode

[Kellicros]

try this:

in special game fixes, uncheck the "Use PC fps calculation".

thanks that fixed everything...... i think but ill never no untill i finish the game wont i....also an extra question how do i find out what playback type the game is....eg NTSC or PAL???

telling whether it's NTSC or PAL is really easy. The dos screen when you load up the game tells you. NTSC games are from North America and Japan and PAL are from everywhere else. So if you live in North America, like I do, and you aquire a game legally, it will be NTSC.
