Talking about FFO, anyone notice what happened to the Temple of Ancients Forum there?

Ah, I know!
Try setting your refresh rate for 640 x 480 to 60 Hz or something lower. {you can use DX diag to do this)Then make sure your V-Sync is on so that your frame rate wont go too high.

Strangely enough
I think most of it is caused by the 3D acceleration being on. If you switch it off you'll get pretty much playable speed.

It happened to me before too but I played it at that speed nevertheless.
There are 2 things you can do to slow it down though. First, you could try using software renderer with 640 X 480 full screen resolution. Secondly, you could just underclock your processor  :D

Joey, is from my country, Malaysia.
Don't get the wrong idea, ok?

Oh god, I just know someone is going to say something about Joey's comment, so I won't bother

Can you imagine what the toothpaste ads will be showing if they knew it could do this??

General Discussion / FF9 PC...sort of ;-)
« on: 2001-05-03 09:40:00 »
There you go again Joey...

Anyway, the piracy in my place has gone really bad. The "FF9PC" thing is available in my country too and my friend bought it. Sigh...

They're introducing a lot of PSX games as PC games just by including VGS in them. Usually I can tell just by looking at the back of the CD's. If the CD back cover tells you the default key config of VGS you'll know that it's not a PC copy.

General Discussion / Crash.........HELP!
« on: 2001-04-11 12:24:00 »
How about going into the registry using regedit and removing all traces of your settings in FF7
Then reinstalling FF7 again?

« on: 2001-04-10 15:27:00 »
I think I encountered that problem before, but I don't remember solution. It could be a problem with your virtual memory limitation, try to let windows manage it. Hope that helps!

General Discussion / PCI device help please?

It isn't any really known branded casing.
Though I've practically modified the whole thing  :)

Sorry if it sounded like I was boasting. Just couldn't help myself when I started typing the specs out  :)

My CD Writer? It burns at 16X(2400KB/s)
Unfortunately, it only achieves 16X after it has written about 25% of the CD. It starts at 12X. The only drive I know that can achieve true 16X Write is the Plextor Drive.

That's odd, in my country assembling you own PC is a lot cheaper than buying a whole unit from the above-mentioned companies. Like Fice, most brands also provide at least a year of warranty on the parts in my country.

Well, O/C ing also depends on the batch of processors that you have. Certain batches do perform better than others. Sometimes, O/C ing a processor, doesn't only depend on the temperature. In some cases, people actually do a "voltage mod" to gain higher voltages for O/C ing. The highest one i've seen is 2.97's for an Athlon I think....

But honestly, the extra effort spent O/C is sometimes just not worth it. If you like to boast clock speeds not available in the market yet, then hey go ahead. I'm not against O/C here however. I've O/C ed my Athlon 1Ghz to a 1.3 before. But I decided that it wasn't worth the performance increase so I've put it back to 1 Ghz. After all, I don't exactly play games in software mode or anything. My Geforce GTS can easily take care of things.  :)

Threesixty, you have a RAID setup too?
I have 20GB Quantum AS drives running on RAID stripping and I would say performance is excellent  :)

I might as well post my system specs:-

Abit KT7 RAID Motherboard (KT-133 Chipset)
Highpoint 370 RAID Controller built on M/B
256 MB 150 MHz Kingston SDRAM
1000Ghz @ 1300 AMD Athlon Processor
2 X 20GB Quantum AS (7200 rpm) drives.
MSI Geforce GTS 32MB (Core @ 245 / RAM @ 393) w TV output
ASUS RIVA TNT with built in Video Capture.
SBLive! Value Sound Card
Altec Lansing ACS 54 4-point speakers
50X Aopen CD-Rom Drive
Yamaha CRW 2100ES IDE CD Writer
(40X read, 16X Write, 10X Rewrite)
(101 CD-R's in my cupboard)
External ZIP 100 MB USB
Sony 17" Trinitron E200 Monitor (Flat Screen)
Microsoft Professional Natural Keyboard (USB)
Logitech Optical Eye Mouse (not the ifeel one)
3Com US Robotics 56K modem (Yuck!, a disgrace to my PC)
1.44 MB Mitsubishi Floppy Drive (Another, old object)
12 Fans in my PC. (Note all the Fans in my PC are Overvoltages to either 17V or 24V)
Yeah, my PC is as noisy as an aeroplane.  :D
A Scanner and Printer which I'm too lazy to give details about  :)

Hehe, you should see the amount of plug points I use in this room of mine  :)
I have a fax machine, a VCR, A Hifi Set, 2 PC's, a scanner, a printer, a modem, a zip drive, a TV, ,my PCspeakers and a few other electrical components here. :P

Do not buy the Pentium 4!
I've read an article about it.
I can't remember the details but is has something to do with the P4 having a new architecture that makes it only faster than current processors only if the program code is optimised for it. If it uses the same normal optimizations in the code, the P4 performs with horrible performance. I could be wrong though. Now where did I last read that document?

About console's, I myself still prefer the PC to a console.
That's why I use emu's 99% of the time.
The PC is an excellent platform despite it's many shortcomings.

Consider it a vacation.
Hope you'll come back soon.

General Discussion / What the...? (Take a look, everyone)
« on: 2001-04-03 08:05:00 »
Honestly, I think i have to agree Dag, the guy might not even notice that he did so. Maybe he missed out the note on your page. His English could be just as good as your French, Qhimm(no punt intended) so he might not have understood it?   :)
Anyway, maybe you should just mail him and tell him about it. That way, if it was just a mistake or if he forgot, the problem can be remedied easily. If it isn't and he purposely did it then we can plan whatever you want to do to him. Honestly speaking, when making my website, i see a lot of people just stealing source eventhough it's written clearly on my firstpage. Some people just don't see the notices so I guess in some cases its forgivable.


Hope that helps.

It really has been a long time since i've seen Terence actually make a reply

I've always wondered how people actually misunderstand "clear-cut" messages.

But now I know............

You can access the debug room on pc too.
All I will say is there are debug saves on my website http://www.finalfantasyfanatics.net" TARGET=_blank>http://www.finalfantasyfanatics.net
Skillster and Strethon will probably tell you about savegames editors so i'll let them fill you in  :)
In 2K, you can get up to the chocobo races if you have some 2K compatiblity program or something like that
Can't remember.
