Why would it be that with default settings, and hq2x enabled, I'm getting 40-50 fps whereas with "ForceCompatibleGFX=1" and hq2x enabled, I get the desired 60 fps.
My computer is a Pentium 4 2.8 GHz and my video card is a GeForce 6800 GS. That's not new but it's not bad hardware either so why the issue with the graphics?
Because "default settings<forcecompatiblegfx=1"Quote:

the graphic are OK to me :confused::confused:
Did this thread really need resurrecting without adding any kind of constructive input?.
And he wasn't asking about graphics he was asking about framerates.
Indeed..
DO NOT bump dead threads unless you are going to add constructive input..
I don't remember posting such a useless post >_< although it's got quote marks so I presume it's from the READ ME file. Hmmmm
I think it's clear we weren't yelling at you man... re read the thread post by post if you feel otherwise O_o
True. But it works beautifully in emulators for other systems, and even in other Genesis emulators. That also doesn't explain why I get the desired framerate with "ForceCompatibleGFX=1" and I don't with "ForceCompatibleGFX=0".Quote:

I can't speak for Steve, but most likely the FPS increase with using that option is probably due to some rendering technique he used earlier in production, but was actually "cheating" in some way.
So he left it in for people lacking the power to run the more accurate emulation mode, is my guess.
