why no frame skip?

Barky · November 2nd, 2004, 01:17

could some explain to me the technical reason why there isnt a frame skip option? this would at least make the game seem up to speed but just choppier. is there a technical reason? or is it just that it isnt going to be programmed

you could use the CPU over/underclock option

if you press the "+" or "-" key you can either underclock or overclock the CPU. try raising or lowering it, depending on your machine you can get better results

I have a problem with this feature.
I'vo got a AMD Athlon 64 3500+ and I underclock Chankast to 50!!
But it's still too fast o.O
Ho could I fix it?

Overclocking the virtual SH-4 will make it run slower, not underclocking it.

well normally underclocking it makes it faster. (on my system it runs much nicer at 50)
since chankast has no FPS limit, try overclocking it alot.
