Wasnt there also one about lower the percentage of execution? Cant remember the percentage though.

How would I go about doing that?

after every battle or so the game just freezes.

It never used to do this now it does it all the time.

I deleted zsnes and all the config data, and downloaded it again, and i downloaded a totally different version of the rom just to be sure -- same problem.

possible problems?

plugged in.

What sound sample rate are you using in ZSNES?

the default

What sound chip does your laptop use?

AC97.

The bottom line is, ROMs are illegal. the internet is rife with illegal downloads, and if everything that was illegal was stopped online the internet would be a very boring place.

It all comes down to personal morality. In the eyes of the law, downloading roms is the same as stealing from someone.

Why? or is it asking you too much to back up your opinions? I'll reply to this. Back when I was buying a laptop I tried out a Sony VAIO. It was pretty bad, so I had to return it. I got an HP instead and loved it. Here's what I hated about it: first off, the cost was $1600, whereas the HP was $1300....

no seriously, they suck.

ps. Mods, if this is going too off topic, just say and i'll get back to talking about my zsnes problem only.

Are you comparing by the MHz/GHz rating? Because if you are, your comparison is very wrong. A Pentium M clock cycle does much more than a P4's clock cycle. A Pentium M 1.6 GHz with a similar setup to my P4 2.6 GHz machine always wins all the benchmarks I've tried. The only time you should compare a...

<ass> Here's an idea: Buy a laptop that has technology appropriate for laptops, not desktops. </ass> my laptop HAS technology approiate for a laptop, its a MOBILE intel pentium 4, you cant actually buy laptops with pentiums 4's that arent mobile. If you werent such a know-nothing loud mouth you'd k...

- no 60 / 50 fps (in NTSC / PAL games)

I think Ive worked out whats going on:

American NTSC TVS run as 60fps right? and UK Pal TVs run at 50fps..maybe my TV is too slow to display the game at 60fps...

is there anyway to slow the game down to 50fps?

Possible reasons would be... - no 60 / 50 fps (in NTSC / PAL games) I'm not sure what you mean? I dunno whether it might be because of the TV... I'm based in the UK and my TV is pal...most of the games are NSTC. Would that effect it? - "high-priority mode" enabled in ZSNES Ive enabled it....

Anyone else notice the appauling sound level of the voices in that game? I cant even hear it...

Was it like that in the original game?

If you don't do that I can't really help you.

uh, im already using auto frame rate, thats why I said frame SKIP rate, not max frame rate.

You wasted your money, you should have bought a laptop with a mobile based processor. Laptops with a Pentium 4/Celeron will slow down continually because the processor overheats. I'm a graphic design student here in London, so I needed a high spec laptop for front end design. I bought my laptop abo...

I have a p4 1.4GHz (desktop), and no trouble whatsoever. I see no reason why a processor of the same family twice as buff would choke on anything. when you say "no trouble" do you mean you get totally smooth, non skipping animation ie. 0 frame skip rate? If you set your frame skip rate to...

first off, I wanna thank all the ZSNES team for all thier hard work over the years, you've allowed me to play games I thought I'd never get to replay or even see in English. Hats off to you guys. OK, now for some backgroud information before I get to my enquiry: I have a sony Viao laptop, pentium 4 ...
