Playing music while SNES Emulating?


Playing music while SNES Emulating?

Postby Nell » Feb 26, 2004 @ 3:03am

I was wondering how to get higher FPS while playing Snes games on my A620...I noticed in some games I only around 31-40 FPS like Romance of the 3 Kingdoms IV with the sound enabled, I get higher with sound off... Is it because I enabled music or do I need to overclock A620???

Would I get higher FPS if I used Today Player and listened to some MP3s instead of enabling music or should I just use another SNES emulater besides Morphgear Beta 2.0.9.1????

MP3's slow down the game more than SNES emulation from my experience.

Emulate Sound in Morphgear is generally recommended, since some games will crash without sound chip emulation. You will always get slighly higher performance when sound is turned off (uncheck enabled box in morphgear), these isn't too m uch of a need to overclock.

If the game is running at full-speed with sound, there's little point in turning it off unless you want to make the games less choppy. Overclocking will raise the framerate when sound is on and when sound is off.

It always depends on what games you play. I use has MP3 player, it's so tiny and I can play games like Argentum, Warefare Inc, AoE, or Snes with almost the same FPS. But of course GBA emulation is not playable with mp3s. (On A620)
No, I've never seen that, I've never seen anyone drive their garbage out to the curb and bang the hell out of it with a stick. No, I've never seen that.
