Description
With 5739 if I disable all frame limiting, but leave vsync enabled in the d3d settings my fps can drop while the vps remains above 100%. For instance: when I play Mario Kart with 2 players, my frames will stay at 60 FPS, but the VPS will be upwards of 120 (200%) or sometimes as high as 160 (250%). The actual game speed is constant and accurate and it runs much smoother this way.
All other ways I have tried to play Mario Kart (as well as most other games) with two players have left me with unplayable FPS. This works for all games and every game on every other version of dolphin is slower in comparison. Even when my frames get below 60, the VPS still remains above 100% allowing the game to continue running at a normal speed.
So the issue is that when I play games on any revision of dolphin other than 5739, the game slows down when my fps does. On 5739 with the settings I mentioned, even when my fps drops, the game speed does not.
I have attached screenshots of what I am talking about. I can also make a video of the game running at constant speed although both the vps and fps are fluctuating.
I think it would be very important to include this feature in newer revisions of dolphin.
