vBoy slow

5 replies · 3,802 views · Started 28 April 2005

I've been testing a few games on vBoy 1.21 and i'ts been slow. not extremely slow, but slow enought to piss me off. I see some people saying they run GBC games smoothly and as fast as normal GameBoys, but this isn't happening here. When playing Pok�mon Crystal or Mario Tennis, I experienced it a little slow, and in Mario, in the middle of the game, it starts to get slower and slower.

Firmware:
V 3.47

I'll take the N-Gage for an upgrade to 4.03 next week (independent of vBoy's problems), do you think this will help? Or is there something I could do now to make it faster? I already changed the log to 1 day, and I made that April 1st trick (that seemed to make Pandemonium slightly faster).

When u use a high quality graphic display it slows the game down majorly so set your graphic display to normal wit a frame rate to 45 or 50.

is there this option in N-Gage??

NO, VBOY HAS AN OPTION TO CHANGE THE VISUAL SETTINGS

oops my bad, I was thinking of vsun.try switching your ngage to offline, this use to speed up the old vsun emulator
