Tekken 5 - PCSX2 0.9.7 r3878 *Almost* Full Speed

Today I show you the fruits of my efforts in getting the very demanding Tekken 5 software to run on PC with the PCSX2 emulator. My computer is a 2008 model MacBook Aluminium, with a 2.0Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, 2GB DDR3 RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce 9400M integrated GPU.

Tekken 5 runs well with all speed hacks on, but EE and VU clamping modes must not be set to 'none', otherwise you cannot fight. Always apply "Flush to Zero" and "Denormals are Zero", which work well for Tekken 5 but seem to break other versions of Tekken. I can get an average framerate of around 45FPS (This is the Australian PAL version, so max is 50FPS) which is more than playable and close to full speed. I've also turned on Constant Frameskip, which does an OK job of "faking" extra FPS, but when recording seems to de-sync the audio, as you will no doubt notice here. I have it set to draw 100 frames and skip 5.

Almost full speed? Seems laggy as hell, sorry :\

@corporationation Yep, recording fucks with the FPS, and the sound of course. Look out soon for a re-upload taken with my new Core i5 :D

Is there any chance that you could take a couple screen shots of your config? I also have an aluminum macbook (5,1) with same setup except i doubled my memory to 4GB. I can run pcsx2 but it is really slow and choppy.
