You may want to remove the blank memory card files from the playground binary on the site.

I know there was talk of implementing a slider for the sync hacks. (Jake Thanks for fixing the afxres.h error). I just built a modified version to test Killzone. With x6 the intro goes 70fps and ingame the game plays at an amazing 10fps on my system. I would think a slider would be very beneficial instead of changing HBLANK_COUNTER_SPEED and compiling it every time to see which number worked the best. Just my two cents worth. Keep cranking out the revisions.(Now compiling a x12 hack build)

Somewhere between rev 447 to 471(the last one that I've tested) there's some info that appear in the console every 2-3 second even without doing anything,just open pcsx2.

What's this,is something new for finding bugs more easier or???

its a profiler.

it tells you the % of cpu time different parts of the emu take up.

its disabled by default in later PP builds, and can be enabled by misc->enable profiler.

You probably already knew this but cycle hacks x3 doesn't work. I can get it to work but first i have to change it in the .ini file. then make that file read only. It's difficult to get the audio not to seem horrific with all original speedhacks( without the 2d optimitization). plus only 1 vu on with 2 vu cycle stealing without the vu cycle speed hacks. but i have settings that work fairly well. to get cycle rate x3 to work. First go to pcsx2 in task mgr(real time) Second, hit run cdrom or run iso then if you have an os that does the task manager prompt, hit ctrl alt del wait for sound. If you don't have controls. Run again without realtime. make a save state. If you gain focus load it.

Here are the sound sync settings for cycle hacks 3.(just out of curiosity is there any way
to split the vu and use it only for certain tasks. I think the vu is primarly important for certain intense in game engine sequences. Having it on all the time messes with the sync. I was able to get 60 fps in the public beta but the controls didn't feel fluid for that speed. I also can't get guitar hero 2 to work. Its also at 60 fps but the emulator ignores the frets usually.(it did work at one point im not that bad) I think if i got rid of the cycle hacks it would fix it but then i wouldn't be able to play it at 60 fps. Is there anyway to implement a low level vu that doesn't mess with the sync of the cycle rate. Oh right the settings.

spu2:
waveout buffers 8
latency 68
interpolation: none
sequence length: 90
seekwindow size: 10

xcedf thats because your using positive positive for the cpu. I just played it and don't have that problem.
