Detail vs. Framerate

[Vincent_VII]

Possibly. Not every PSP is the same. Several hardware revisions have been made since it's release. But that is a "whole other can o' worms".

No dev kit, here : i can't measure fps

Thx for answering my questions NeXaR_QroN & Vincent_VII

Even at default, Pulse hiccups badly on the CFW PSP when compared to the OFW one.

Not necessarily the firmware's fault. Convert your .CSO to .ISO and test again. Texture decompression requires time and CPU cycles.

hang on a minute, I thought CFW wasn't meant to be discussed on these boards. I think i can here someone coming...

[NeXaR_QroN]

Well, it's being discussed here to actually try and settle wether it's the same or not in regards to actual playing, to determine if it should be considered "cheating" or not to use it to play pulse, regardless of clock speed. I think that's important.

But yes, we should be doing this via PM, MSN, IRC... If anyone's interested, I'm on iRC, and my msn tag is in the "PSN IDs and MSN Tags" thread.

CSO vs ISO - this shouldn't matter. Only when loading the level. Once the data is loaded into the PSP memory it will run the same regardless. If the data is steaming from the source (ISO, CSO or UMD), that is a totally different story.

Hmm... I would love to discuss but I am at work.

[NeXaR_QroN]

At least it would be streaming the music, if nothing else.

sighface..

whats with all those ****ty reply's ?

No, the human eye can definitely tell the difference at higher frame rates. You only have to compare something running at a steady 60fps to something at 30fps to see it.

For example, after I was playing HAlo 3 religiously, I then got COD4 and though something was wrong with my Xbox lol!

Funnily enough!, as I was watching my son who plays Halo3 on my 42" TV`s screen, but I`d thought, it was a HD till COD4 came along which 100 times better than Halo3! go figure!.

And yes, my son who have got XBox360 and I have PS3

Don't really know about those tecnical things but if it DOES matter and someone can cheat through these methods I'd say it sucks... Back on the subject, I do prefer fps over detail but as many have said in pulse I think few are those who are going to play an 8 player match in phantom so it doesn't matter much about fps. I'm with fps all the way but when trying to avoid the track walls so as to race a perfect lap I don't have the time to look at the scenery. Also I think that is why in zone mode the whole track goes white or green or whatever with just a bit of shade so as to distinguish the track details, in order to have as high a framerate as possible. Otherwise your psp would like flare up in zone 60+
