In the game Tale of the abyss (NTSC) the game shows rectangles in the entire screen in many areas (Like the town of the beginning) this rectangles can see if you chek the hardware hack "Half pixel offset" to remove the ghosting effect.

(Images attached)

Tested with opengl and directx11.

This can be removed temporally enabling/disabling hardware mode, but only for a short time.

Specs:

i7 4790k
16GB DDR3
GTX 970 (4gb)

I am using an Intel Core i7-2600K on an Asus P8Z77V-LX motherboard, along with some random DIMMs at 1.5V. I am planning for a RAM upgrade and need some help:

1. My first option is to get DDR3L modules (1.35V). Do my motherboard and memory controller support DDR3L?
   
2. My second option is to get some factory overclocked Corsair Vengeance Pro DIMMs at 1200 Mhz (2400 MT/s, 1.65V). Same question: will they work, and if they do, is it guaranteed to reach 1200 Mhz via Intel X.M.P?
   
3. Is it possible to mix my existing 1.5V modules with 1.35V and/or 1.65V ones?
   

Don't ask me "why not 1.5V". I am playing around with various hardware just for fun. It takes 2 to 3 weeks for items ordered from Amazon to arrive to my location, so wasting time and money for something which does not work is definitely not fun.

but when I opened pcsx2 again tonight, PCSX2 wouldn't read any of the buttons, I haven't damaged the controller and the buttons that light up still do on the remote so it's clearly being powered by my computer, how do I get it to work again? it tells me the controller is plugged in for port 1/2 which it is but it just won't pick up the buttons.


DX Twin USB Joystick

everything has values under device diagnostics for this remote, I haven't changed the port, I haven't changed the USB port for the usb-ps2port.

EDIT: Everything works now for some reason

I want to update to the latest dev version of pcsx2. I suppose I just need to download the protable version and slap it in a different folder, but how do I move over all my configurations? I'm not using savestates so saves should be as easy as moving the memcard files, but what about my plugins and everything? I'm afraid I might do something wrong, copy something I shouldn't have which would cause a conflict with the new version or something. So basically, what's the best, cleanest way to move over everything to the new version?

I'm mainly updating because I heard the memcard file structure has changed and it's now possible to see each individual savefile, instead of the .ps2 memcard file. I need to inject a .max savefile using myMC, but it gives me the dreaded "dll is missing" error which I don't know how to fix (other than using dll-files.com ,but that would be stupid). Would the new version let me put this savefile in my memcard by just drag-n-dropping the max file to my memcard? Do I need to convert it in some way?

Thanks in advance.

I have the latest version of pcsx2 on my Alienware i7 laptop (windows) and every game i try to play runs into constant issues, champions: return to arms fps keep rubberbanding, ratchet and clank also has fps rubberbanding issues, black runs into severe graphics problems. I have tried litterally everything, I have pcsx2 saved and running from my external hard-drive with over 1 terabyte of space left, it was originally on my D drive which has roughly the same, I have tweaked my video settings in every way that any video or forum post suggests to fix fps and graphics issues and nothing helps, my ps1 emulator works without any hassle but i can not get pcsx2 to work for me, please for the love of god someone give me information that will help me out as I do not have much money to buy new games so this emulator is pretty much my only way to enjoy games I do not already have.
These are my current video settings and pc specs:

Settings- Adapter: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M
Renderer: Direct3D11 (Hardware) i have also tried the software version, no change
Interlacing: None, also have in on Auto sometimes
Allowing 8-Bit textures
Internal Resolution: 6x Native, I normally have it on Native
Texture Filtering: Bilinear (PS2)
CRC Hack Level: Full (Safest)

All other settings are grayed out (yes i know it is because of the renderer I am using)

Pc Specs- Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-4900MQ CPU @ 2.80GHz 2.80 GHz
Installed memory (RAM): 32.0GB
System type: 64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor
Windows Version: 8.1

I wrote my specs and settings in the exact format they appear on my screen, just incase anyone seeing this finds some of the text redundant.

Ones that google either cannot parse well though I'm sure the answers exist, or just didn't get me anything.

1.) A lot of Pnach files have codes with a single "/" before them, for instance

// Remove Item on Slot 140(For Use modded stones)
/patch=1,EE,41E22554,extended,001B0001
/patch=1,EE,00000000,extended,00000000


I know "//" comments out the code, but does the single version do something? The code above isn't one i want to use, nor does it appear active; does the / break it the same as commenting it out? "How pnach files work" doesn't mention anything about what a single slash does.

2.) Widescreen "hacks" have across the board been functionally useless, that I've seen; The emulation window is extended, but the game screen isn't resized to use the extra space; its just black space. I'll admit I haven't got a very big ps2 library I've attempted them on, but am I correct in assuming that that's all they do?

3.) Is there a "general" method to joker a pnach code? I think google is getting me out of date information in lots of places, as there are some posts saying joker/complex codes don't work, some saying they do and have been fixed, some pnach files that have them some that don't, and I am officially very confused on the matter.

What do you guys recommend for optimal speed and performance?

PC Specs:
8 gb DDR3 1333 ram
phenom II x4 840 3.2GHz
GTX 960

nothing is overclocked
any input will be appreciated, need any other info ask and I will update.
I have fiddled with the default plugins and I couldn't get Dark cloud to run smoothly, the opening sequence at the dark altar drops down to 55-60% speed.
I am running it off a disk if that matters

Thanks guys ,

I'm running AntergosOS (basically Arch Linux), and everything is running fine, except there's no sound.

I'm using Version 1.4.0. Here's my plug-ins:

GS = GSdx
Sound = SPU2-X

My only other option for sound is SPU2-null.

Here's my configuration for the sound (although I've tried every option):

Interpolation - 1
Yes to Disable Effects Processing
Module - SDL Audio (my only other option is PortAudio)
PortAudio API: ALSA
SDL API: ALSA
Synch Mode: TimeStretch

Latency: 300

I've tried testing this out on a Psychonauts and Kingdom Hearts ISO.

I've tried other emulators (like Dolphin) and the audio works fine. I've checked to see if the audio drivers are fully updated, and they are. Any idea what's going on here?

So VorpX(a program that you use to convert older games to VR) got a major update today. It now supports user profiles and CV1. Just in time!

But among the new games that have official profiles, I noticed something interesting:



This... could be interesting. I will be sure to try that out on Tuesday and report back!

Meanwhile, discuss!

How do I set up the forum memory card option pcsx2 1.4.0

The option available in version 1.4.0 to save individual games to a save folder providing unlimited storage capacity for save files as games will only see their own saves and the rest of the perceived 8MB memory card as free space sounds perfect to me but I have no idea how to do this.

I havent been able to find a guide. Is there one? Otherwise could someone tell me how to set this up?

This is probably a pretty easy problem to solve, but I don't really feel like doing the research if I don't have to.. lol.

Anyway. I'm trying to play mushihimesama, which is a pretty sweet kinda bullet hell shooter, I highly recommend it, at least when it's on sale.

Ok, anyway, I'm trying to remap the arrows and zxcv to wasd and numpad 123 etc so I can use my left hand for movement and right for shooting, but for some reason the keys keep sticking. You know, when I let go of certain keys, they'll just stick as if I was still holding them down, which is completely disastrous in this kind of game. 

Anyone know the solution?

Here's my ahk script. It's about as simple as it gets.

Those first few lines were given as default. Maybe the "SendMode Input" option isn't as good as they claim(No I haven't checked this yet. Yes, I will now..)?

Code:

#NoEnv  ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
; #Warn  ; Enable warnings to assist with detecting common errors.
SendMode Input  ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%  ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.

w::Up
a::Left
s::Down
d::Right
Numpad1::Z
Numpad2::X
Numpad3::C
NumpadEnter::V
Numpad4::D
Numpad6::F
