Unsolved God of war 3 remastered emulation

3 Upvotes

Since I don’t have a PS5 or PS4, I’ve already emulated God of War 1 and 2 on my mobile. Now I want to emulate God of War 3 Remastered on my laptop.

My laptop has an RTX 4050 and a 13th-gen i9, so I’m wondering if it should be powerful enough to run God of War 3 Remastered smoothly with good graphics. I mainly want to know which emulator would be better for this: RPCS3 or shadPS4?

I want the game to run as smoothly as possible with optimal graphics. My laptop also has a 120 Hz 4K OLED display, so I’d really like to enjoy the game at its best.

Does anyone have a proper step-by-step guide for setting it up, preferably using safe and trustworthy sources so I can avoid viruses or other problems?

Thankfully, the rest of the God of War games are available on Steam, so this is the only one I’m trying to figure out.

Unsolved Missed a whole day’s progress on SNES9x?

0 Upvotes

Hello all. I usually don’t emulate but thought I would try it with Final Fantasy. Yesterday on the 30th my timezone, I did about 2 and half hours of progress going through about 2 dungeons and exploring a new town. Generally saving throughout or at least I thought so? I’m the kind of guy that saves VERY frequently. Even as a kid playing Pokémon I would save twice in a row just to be extra careful.

But today on the 31st my timezone it seems none of it saved from that session from yesterday? I’m 95% sure I did in fact save especially since this game has a savepoint before a boss and it would be unlike of me not to use it. I used the in-game saves and not save states (although from now on I’m definitely going to do both just to be safe.

In fact! I recall a specific instance (this game being FFV) where npcs warn you of an early high level enemy. Knowing I saved I went and explored the are anyway, got ambushed by it and got booted to the title screen and was right back where I left off before entering the dungeon. But when I opened the game just today it was on my progress the day before but not yesterday as if I nevef opened it and played it on the 30th.

The file name and roms are the same. I checked the save files in snes 9x and it wasn’t there. Did I just turn off tje program incorrectly? Does this happen frequently? Would like to know.

Unsolved Vulkan saying it’s not found on pcsx2 but it works in duckstation.

2 Upvotes

Am I missing something here? I switched to Vulkan like I did with duckstation and where duckstation let me use it without a problem, pcsx2 saying it could not be found and resets to an older config but when I go to renderer again the toggle is on Vulkan. I do not know if it’s a bug or not so I could use tiny bit of help.

Thanks in advance.
