Question about 1.36 And WIP

Post by Bacon »

I Started using this emulator when it was in the old 0.9xx stages (Whats that 6 or 7 years ago?), still using it; and am very happy with how far this emulator has progressed :)

I have a quick euestion about 1.36 and the WIP

-Are there any speed differences between the two? [Will one run faster than the other on a moderatly slow machine?]

-Is the VSync / Triple Buffer better in one than in the other?

I know these are probably stupid questions, but I am curious :)

Thanks

The WIP version is a work in progress. It has lots of improvement over 1.36.
And to answer your questions...

1. The WIP version has better speed.

2. Should be the same. Not sure.

I have two computers and the WIP is an average of 5 frames faster than 1.36 on my other computer. I have a pretty old computer (PII 233, 64 megs of ram), but it's sufficient for what I use it for. I've never needed to use Vsync or the triple buffer so I can't comment on them.
