Chrono Cross framebuffer troubles (Pete's OGL2)

[Neronix]

I've been trying to play Chrono Cross all day but I can't figure out what's wrong with my framebuffer settings. Whenever I enter a battle or reach some other point which uses framebuffer effects, I slow right down to 25-30 fps. However, on Pete's Open GL1, everyonthing is ok. I use a 1.6gbz P4, 384mb ram, a GeForce FX 5900 XT and I'm playing from an ISO. I'm using 1.6 with -noauto (I've tried 1.52 but no luck). What am I doing wrong?

Configs are as follows:

Tried disabling Shader Effects? They're known to be the weak point of the Geforce FX cards with this plugin.

I've tried that but no luck

How about setting Framebuffer Effects to 3? And what do you want the Ignore Small Framebuffer Moves hack enabled for?

Tried with and without the hack and no changes. I wanted it on because if it took out some of the effects, I would most likely get a small speed up.
