By any chance did anyone ever make a version without downsampled audio just for Emulator purposes?

Like I even tried to do this myself. I got as far as checking out the tens of thousands of different files inside the AFS container in disc 1 alone between the Dreamcast and Xbox versions and saw they were referred to differently between versions, that alone was enough to make me give up lol.

So yeah would def appreciate it if anyone has done this could share, or any pointers on how the above was dealt with would be cool. (...It wasn't "manually was it? 8-[ ) I'd share it myself if I could get it working.

im not sure what version it is but some fella over on an Adam Koralik video posted this https://docs.google.com/document/d/1J8NV5EiFu-J17NbOMsD93le-QRpj4I9zdZTIyZvnlZg/edit

the linked shenmue 2 copy has full ENG voices and each disc is around 1gb so.. maybe its not compressed.

Thoughts

So, ive played on this release of Demul for around 3 hours and it runs great. ive had one ore 2 minor slowdowns buts is been butter smooth the rest of the time.

They seem to have fixed the audio issues as well.


I have made a video however in regards to my settings.

I have the same card and a 3570k clocked at 4.2ghz. I use 3x scaling with 32 layers. If I go higher than 3x I get Slowdown's. Also found out that you set Slowdown's the first time you run the emulator. Think it's to do with the cache folder setting up.
