why can't this thing have the best of both worlds, what a piece of shit better off just buying a ps2 at this point.

PS2-> made by Japanese
Pshitxs2-> made by trannys trying to tarnish the PS2’s reputation

>all the Ace Combat games still have graphical bugs
zzzzzzzzzz

>the guy who saved N64 emulation is working on the same for PS2
>PCSX2 devs outright refuse to integrate his renderer into mainline, act actively hostile when this is brought up in their discord
Fuck this trash heap of an emulator, it's been the worst emulator for like 20 years running.

>>718426874 (OP)
>software mode
Might as well not play.

>>718428110
Still??

>>718426874 (OP)
cope emulet, at least boot your roms on a ps2

>>718428443
quick rundown? pcsx2 already has dx11, opengl and vulkan doesn't it

I can't be the only one who prefers playing on native
something about upscaling those shit textures looks off

>>718428927
They're better than they used to be but there's still some bugs.
AC4 is almost there but it still has some blurring in the cutscenes and the square explosions in 0 have been fixed for a while.

>>718429067
I thought the square explosions in 0 were an actual bug on hardware too? Or am I thinking of the Hrimfaxi's explosions in 5?

>>718429046
the interlacing looks bad

>>718429046
It depends on the game

>>718429369
this
Burnout 3 is legit unplayable at native because I literally can't see shit

>>718429238
Think that was the Hrimfaxi, I replayed that on PCSX2 and those are still square.

>>718429046
don't know what schizo shit you're on about, the PS2 scales pretty well even without texture packs

>>718430182
There are people that believe 3D has a "native" resolution (at whatever they ran at when they first played the game). They refuse to accept that no matter how low res the textures are, the game will look better at a high resolution, likely because they still can't run games at high resolutions.

>>718429001
There's a new GPU compute based sotfware renderer like ParaLLEl for N64.

No I don't care about your wide screen garbage btw. 4:3 ftw.

>>718430979
Epic post for the win.

>>718426874 (OP)
>gt4 still unplayable without switching hacks constantly

>>718430686
Doesn't it technically have one in case of consoles? All the effects are tied to original resolution and are the first thing to break if you go higher than that (assuming it's not broken to begin with on the emulator).

>>718432735
Yes, things are often hardcoded to specific resolutions but it's not always that simple. For example on N64 a lot of games let you select a high res mode if you have an expansion pack installed.

>>718432934
Sounds a lot more like this expansion pack thing lets you play in non-gimped mode, to be honest. Wasn't N64 notorious for its awful draw distance?

>>718426874 (OP)
>punk ass bitch doesn't know about gs parallel
my man just kill yourself

>>718433475
No, 320x240 was pretty much normal for 5th gen. With the expansion pack on N64 some games pushed 640x480 instead. N64 was mostly known for blurry graphics but some games did have pretty bad draw distance (Turok) and sometimes even worse than the same game on PSX (Rayman Legends). This isn't the rule, though.

I haven't used PCSX2 in years, so I'm sure I sound retarded, but I remember a game having issues that could only be fixed with hacks in HW mode and other bugs that could only be fixed while in SW mode, which you obviously couldn't do at the same time. Is it still like this?

>>718426874 (OP)
Ring of Red has this issue. I think I WILL buy a slim just to play it

>>718432735
3D can always be scaled. UI elements are all that will suffer, and it's incredibly rare (if it ever happens) that scaling the UI would make it look worse overall with the 3D resolution increased).

>>718433825
i think jak had some shit like this like a decade ago
>could fix the glitchy eyes with a hack
>shadows were fixed in software mode

>>718434860
>it's incredibly rare (if it ever happens) that scaling the UI would make it look worse overall with the 3D resolution increased).
LOL

>>718430979
not to be that guy, but kh2 is mainly "designed" for widescreen cause all the cutscenes were originally letterboxed

>>718426874 (OP)
>BUT SOFTWARE MODE SUCKS
therefore............
>I must buy a physical PS2
So close!

>>718435938
LOL!!!!!! GONNA SEND THIS TO MY GRANDKIDS ON THE FACE PAGE!!!!!!!!!
Imagine being such a faggot that you willing run 3D games in low resolutions, then attempt to brag about it.

>>718428443
They actively remove older settings like frameskipping and QoL stuff too lol. Emu devs unfortunately are mentally ill and only normal and based dude is creator of PPSSPP Henrik.

>>718437897
Frameskipping is garbage. What QoL was removed?

>>718429046
I think PS2 games look fine at 720p

>>718438238
Your moms garbage nigger faggot

>>718438658
Yeah that's what I thought. You're probably a thirdie upset about them removing Windows 7 support.

>>718429001
He's talking about ParaLLEl-GS, which is currently available on LRPS2:
https://www.libretro.com/index.php/lrps2-the-new-playstation2-core-with-a-brand-new-lle-renderer/

It's not perfect because it's early in development but it looks promising. Currently it's the only way to play Ridge Racer 5 above native res without graphical bugs

>>718426874 (OP)
>Still far better than any PS2 game ported to the PS5

>>718429046
playing native would be fine if this shit had some actually good built in shaders
you get the most basic ass scanline filter and Lotte's CRT which looks like absolute shit

>>718440817
>using shaders in the emulator when Shaderglass exists

>>718426874 (OP)
works on my machine

>>718426874 (OP)
>better off just buying a ps2
Not really. The game will run like shit and look like shit, even on a CRT.

>>718429369
True
Games like Rogue Galaxy look great when upscaled

>>718430182
why is this stretched?

>>718441703
It’s not, unless you’re having an autism crisis over the UI

>>718426874 (OP)
"Hardware mode" is a fucking kludge, not actually simulating the hardware as it is on the PS2.

>>718442771
That skybox is 100% stretched.

>>718443294
Get your eyes checked, only the UI is. Because that’s how it is for the majority of patches, retard

>>718443621
are all kingdom hearts fans this hostile

>>718443621
>majority of patches
Maybe play the game as it was intended and not some shitty hacked version? Just a thought.

are there good 60fps patches

>>718426874 (OP)
>>software disallows higher resolutions and looks like shit
I'd be fine if it just looked like shit (native res), but it doesn't even fucking do that. There are rendering bugs everywhere even in software. And it runs like shit.

>>718439215
That's fucking wonderful. pcsx2 is such a fucking trainwreck, it hasn't improved in decades. If the faggots running it (if they're in discord there automatically faggots and groomers) are hostile towards improvements then clearly they're not even trying to improve their shitty software.

>>718446989
I know Red Dead Revolver has one.
If a game was also on the xbox and ran at 60 then it might have one.

>>718429046
i like native on san andreas
