REAL method for increase FPS on 15~30% NOT UPGRADE

J0hnny · February 11th, 2007

1.Right click on Pcsx2 exe file ->Properties->Compatibility->Set Compatibility mode:

- Display settings: run in 256 colors checked

2.My Computer->Properties->Advanced->Perfomance->Settings->Adjust for best Performance

This method works only for ZeroGS Kosmos
THIS REALLY WORK!!!!

This method has thought up one man from Russian Resident evil fan forum his nickname:Karlos Olviero aka Goblinus

all what you need for Speed boost - run Pcsx2 exe with 256 colors checked

******
GS Error: Device doesn't support alpha blending for 16bit floating point targets.
Quality will reduce.

that's why it's faster.

Wow, that is absolutely brilliant. FFX speed increases SIGNIFICANTLY. When running in high density areas, usually get about 45 fps... with this tweak, get 55-60 (10-15 fps increase). This should be in either the guide, or made sticky cause that is huge.

After: 256 compatibility

NexXxus · February 11th, 2007
