Seiken Densetsu 3 slow?

hailstorm · Post by **hailstorm** » Tue Oct 03, 2006 6:40 am

Playing SD3 (Eng translated) on Zsnes v1.43 (May 14 2006 build).

Sometimes when saving the game (not savestate) or getting out of in-game menus, the screen remains black for quite a while. Occasionally, the transitional black screen stays.

Some dialogues lag a bit too. You'd see the dialogue box form up, then the words come out after a 2 sec delay.

My com specs are quite decent with plenty of RAM (1Gb) and nVidia Geforce FX6600 graphics card.

OK I'm using the latest WIP 29 September 2006 build, the slow issues seem to be gone, but now the small fonts in the menu are pixellated and I cannot pick a savestate slot with my mouse anymore.

Hope that helps the devs.

In most cases, you'd also need to post NSRT output. But you're using a patched ROM. Did you hard -patch the ROM or is ZSNES soft-patching it? Regardless, I believe a patched ROM will have a bigger tendancy to fail because it's code is no longer the same as it originally was.

Also, you might want to try the latest WIP or SVN. Sometimes they fix issues that older versions have. Not always, but sometimes.

The first post is probably a result of not deleting the cfg files.

The second post is a result of a bug.. I'll correct it ASAP.

In bold, please elaborate. I think you are talking about the Filtered GUI option in Misc->GUI Options... you need a filter enabled (such as HQ2x) as well in order for the "small fonts" to not be "pixelated".

The savestate slot problem is fixed in SVN.
