I have tested this and doing a video on my channel to show almost perfect this way on hardware


Make sure to reset the emulator after changing the settings

Also the save state load state buttons are not correct other way around

Oops.. I ripped out the games that had black screen or garbled graphics.. like donkey kong country 2 and 3 and contra 3 the alienwars..

i did leave contra spirits though.. i left two versions of the emulator on the disc.. to help those games that wont play correctly..

I’ve been told that makes the games look smoother, because the auto-frame skip is less frequent. I don’t have a PAL setup, so I can’t confirm this.


i had a PAL Dreamcast, and i can confirm this;
there is also a little gain using the combo DC PAL + Snes4All + PAL rom game, compared to the USA/JAP one
almost same fps, but less audio stuttering

i have also made an fps comparison test between Snes4All beta 2 and the 3 latest releases of DreamSnes 0.9.8, 0.9.7 and 0.9.6, using a single game (Super Turrican) , PAL vs USA, and of course same gameplay interval, the first level very start

results :

Snes4All beta 2 :
50Hz DC + pal rom = 42fps (better average result) no frameskip
60Hz DC + usa rom = 40fps (better average result) no frameskip

DreamSnes 0.9.8 and 0.9.7 (pratically same results)
50Hz DC + pal rom = 17 fps (all effects activated), 23 fps (no transparencies), both with autoframeskip
60Hz DC + usa rom = 13 fps (better result)

DreamSnes 0.9.6
50Hz and 60Hz same result = 16 fps (better result)

atm i'm using almost 100% your custom Amiga one, but yes, why not, thanks for all these candies :)

in reality also the standard release of Snes4All works normally via NullDC on my pc
chui emulators have a randomly performance in general, i mean through all the various releases
i.e. i can't make work any release of Gens4All on emulators

in effect, now that i think better, apart GenPlus that runs very slowly, no Megadrive emulator work on NullDC ?

:)
apart his randomly results, NullDC remain my fave emulator
i use Demul only to play/test Scumm games, because the scumm save feature doesn't work on NullDC
and also, my fave release still remain the 1.0.3 one, not surely for the compatibility that is obviously lower,
but because it's damn stable, almost impossible to make it crash
