Powerstone 2 Refresh Rate lockups

shadix · July 11th, 2007

I think I might have some European region of PS2 or something since I get prompted about refresh rate.

Anyways my issue is that the game only works in 50Hz mode, which results in more jagged gameplay, and 60Hz made locks the game up.

Wrong. The game works at "60Hz" on nullDC even if you select 50Hz so the Hz selection screen does not affect the ingame speed.

Something just seems awkward about it. :\

You may have below the the recommended specifications for 60fps play at about all the games. To me it runs just fine

Have you got athlon 64 3500+ at least? Mine is about at that area (Athlon 64 3200+ oc at 2,1 ghz). If not probably that is the reason you get about 50fps.

I smell warez.

Why? Because I once had a warez version that had the exact same problem, it was 50 Hz only, 60 Hz would make it crash. Dump the game yourself, or find another workaround. Expect this thread to be locked.
