What are your computer's specifications?

@@Woodnsus rtx 3080ti, i7 12700k

Hey there! Sorry for the late reply. Wow, those are incredible specs. Since lack of power has been ruled out, the next thing I'd point you to look at, would be the software. Make sure you have all required dependencies for the PCSX2 version you're using. You can check what those are on the emulator's website: pcsx2.net/docs/setup/windows Then, make sure you're not limiting your hardware's performance in any substantial way, either through underclocking, undervolting, unstable overclocking, FPS limiters and what not. These should be no-brainers, but I mention them just in case. Then, I would like to let you know that the game on PS2 actually runs in 25fps in the PAL version, and 30 in the NTSC one. Those frames are then duplicated, to reach the refresh-rate spec of their respective region. So, depending on where you're getting those FPS readings from, they may be normal. I play the NTSC version of the game on this emulator, so my version's performance is around 29-31FPS (in the "Game" indication, at the bottom right corner of the emulator's window, when not playing using fullscreen). Apart from that, another thing I could recommend that you do, is disable the option "Vertical Sync (Sync)" in the Emulation tab of the settings. For some reason, it seems to be broken for now (at least in the latest version).

I did say you need to rip the game yourselves big boy. Providing links to that would be illegal.

@@Woodnsus cant u provide the site atleast also doing this is also illeagal

@@ManzofDaGmod Alright, you got me. Here's the link: rb.gy/0qd0hf

@@Woodnsus nah its okay i found a website from some guy on reddit

Ask Santa to do it 🙏🙏🙏

@@Woodnsus I Mean Isn't There An Option Tha Makes The Lighting Graphics Like The HD Collection One ? Or The 3D 16:9 Option ?

It was a combination of problems, if I remember correctly. One of them being the point on which I had initially connected the wire for power (after a lot of looking around, I came across this post on Twitter: x.com/VajskiD/status/1700807128120955316 and copied this guy's points, which ended up working), and uLaunchELF needing a custom build that had better compatibility with the Slim IDE functions (4.43x_isr).

@@Woodnsus Tnx, looking to do one myself soon.

@@golimonkey Consider getting this: arthrimus.com/product/iflash2ps2-flex-kit/ It can make the soldering work a lot easier, as well as allow you to use SD cards larger than 128GBs.

@@Woodnsus Tnx for suggestion, but its much to expensive for me. I can buy two good PS2s with controllers with that much money. I will diy it just need to find cheap 7000x ps2.

@@golimonkey That's alright. Good luck!

@@racism_ I hope you mean extra 25€, cause my ticket was like 125€. I had a great view.

@Woodsnus mine also was 125€, thank god my neighbor had powerbank so i recorded whole Act 2 and 3

@@racism_ Are you the guy that was next to me and George (?) ?

@@Woodnsus nah, i was in a different spot

@@racism_ funny coincidence. there was also a guy next to me that borrowed a powerbank from another guy next to me. i was the middleman, lol

@@soupsoup6914 Hi. Hit me up on Discord if you want. I'd need to have a better look into your emulator and the error. The name's the same as here.

@@Woodnsus thex for your reaction i downloaded the emu again and now it shows nobootable content was found what should i do?

@@hamsteerio Me too

I try. Thank you.

I'm aware, though I wasn't when I started gathering the parts, years ago. It is indeed an excellent, and much more preferable choice, and if I ever get to do this mod again in the future, I know sure as shoot I'm getting one of them.

Do yourself a favor if you ever decide to do it, and get one of these: gusse.in/shop/ps2-modding-parts/ide-resurrector-flex-cable-for-spch700xx/ It'll make the process 90% easier.

That's a shame. They're pretty cool.

Are you referring to the source, downloaded folder, or the destination, emulator folder?

@@Woodnsus Yeah I was able to find it; because I was using mac the file management was different from what I'm used to on windows

@@babixillo Thank you. It's a transformative experience if you're a rookie. Really heightened my sense of soldering, but definitely not the best area to gain experience at. Not the worst either.

I plan to get a better microphone in the future. I'm currently recording with a HyperX Cloud Alpha headset.

Our games were locked at 30 fps, just put it on infinite, and it will go to 60 and won't the in slow motion anymore.

@@thegreator Hi! I'm aware of MX4SIO and actually own more than one! I might make a game loading speed comparison between that, IDE, USB and Ethernet in the future, to put everything into perspective, but for the time being, I'd like to note that IDE is definitely faster, and it should be, by far. MX4SIO is just a small step up from USB, but it's not even up to par with the standard DVD reading speed. Where did you get that from?

From my experience, FMV on hdd tends to stutter but not on mx4sio. I immediately turn on my ps2 after posting this and I can confirm that.... I was wrong. I was using an old OPL this whole time. Sorry, should've check before posting.

@@thegreator No worries. Glad we set that straight. Feel free to stick around if you wanna see some more projects I'm working on. I'll have a tease in my next video.

I'm currently using a HyperX Cloud Alpha headset and its microphone to record, and while it already has a small piece of foam or whatever that is, it's inevitable that some of my breathing will be heard. I try to manually remove it during the editing process, but I may miss a few spots. I have not yet found an algorithm that I am happy with, to remove that automatically. I think I'll just get a standalone mic, that will allow me to keep some distance from it when I breathe, so I can speak more comfortably. But that's for the future.

Cool! Good luck mate.

@@panospanagiotopoulos4682 The USB ports on the PS2 are limited to 1.1 speeds (=~ 1MBps). This results in some games lagging. I've personally played lots of PS2 games through USB and can say that it's an okay experience, at least for the games that I played, however, if you can do or a get a console with this mod, this is by far superior.

@@grakka72 Thanks!

You have my respect.

@@GAnimeRO Don't remember personally playing that own, but it looks cool.

@@telostia Every test I've seen, LAN (both SMB and that newer method) is slower. Where did you get that from?

@Woodnsus

Thanks! It's marked on the PCB. From there, you just count forwards. ibb.co/mH45QkF

@@FearHeyZeus Happy to offer something to the community. Good luck

@@Nomad_Wanderer What's the process? I'm not up to date with the whole thing.

@@treea4155 Good luck!

@@nedflanders9250 200%. Thanks.

I think it depends on how many 7000X consoles can be found and salvaged.

Well, no HDMI mod planned for the time being, but, do I have a surprise for you. I'm gonna do an RGH 3 as well, on a Trinity (?) 360 S that I got recently. That mod is definitely easier than this, and probably one of easiest hardware mods ever. Thanks for dropping by!

@@Woodnsus noice! 👍 looking forward to seeing it

@@joman104 Yeah... It came out louder than I expected and I didn't notice at the time because I was exhausted. I will pin your comment as a way for more people to see it, and through it I apologize to you, and everyone else. I hope it was just a jumpscare and your ears didn't hurt.

I'm always up for some PS2 1v1s. Even nowadays. It'll always be a part of my life.

That's a big collection! Have you polished them up, externally at least? Tbf, I believe my accent's not great, but I will take the compliment, thank you very much! You can try adjusting the potentiometer in the one console that reads CDs but not DVDs. I've had some luck in the past doing that, though it's not a permanent fix.

I'll continue until the time is right to stop. I have a few projects already underway. Feel free to sub to see 'em when they're ready. I'd say they're somewhat interesting, lol. Also, thanks.

@@NikolayGenov-u9k Thank you neighbour. Stay tuned. There's a few more projects to come.

@@Gerasimos.Panagatos Ευχαριστώ. Ναι, πλέον έχω ενημερωθεί για τα kits και καταλαβαίνω τι παίζει. Άλλη φορά λογικά κάτι τέτοιο θα κάνω.
