@EmuELEC , no worries man, cool cool. I wasn’t aware of the call hierarchy and will update the instructions soon. You’re right messing with images may cause update conflicts.

Mostly because lower resolution would yield better performance. In theory…

the displayresolution/outputresolution has practically no impact on performance.

Hence why I said “In theory”. I have not tested this personally.

Less resolution would mean less memory to copy over so in theory it would be faster. 720p to 480p there would be a significant difference,. The buffers are smaller and the gpu would need to do less work.

So far I havent noticed much gain in FPS, it could be my dolphin settings though. One game I test Baldurs Gate Dark Alliance the FPS drops down to 6-8 really bad, not sure why yet.
