Feature request

**NickK** · March 14th, 2002

Since it's apparent that I'm not going to finish anytime soon (by soon I mean like tomorrow, I'll be done within a few weeks, I hope), I was wondering what you'd like to see in future gfx plugins? I was thinking of a gpu pause feature, for example, but I don't know if anyone would have any use for it?

**Kane** · March 14th, 2002

The GPU pause idea sounds like a good idea, for points in games which can't normally be paused.
I'd also like the frameskip control like pete's. That's handy as hell. The only other feature that would really grab me (which you aren't already implementing) is a FS smoothing option, but using the 2xSai algorithm. However, I am aware that that will not only kill performance, but it will be a BATARD to program.

I didn't have time to finish my JPEG compression code (the scheme is complex), but perhaps in a future release?

FPSE layer -> Yes, I'm going to do that before the release

Linux -> Probably not ever (I don't use Linux)

non nVidia support -> I'll test it on a Rage 128 if you're saying that it doesn't work well on your Radeon or something

Hi NickK, how about a savestate preview mode similar to pete's gpu

Save state pictures are a possibility. At least it lets you know when a save and load is complete

How about a recording feature too in nextsoft like PEOpS?
