We're having an issue in Emergency Call Ambulance.
About halfway in the 3rd level (nighttime fire), there are massive frame drops.

Any idea what's causing it / how to fix?

Thanks!

what's your emulated CPU clock speed? The default 50 is too low for the game

How can I find that out?

Is it this: PowerPCFrequency

And what should I set this to using the command line options?

e.g. -ppc-frequency=50?

I've tried to do this via the supermodel.ini file. Nothing works there for game specific settings:

My ini file:

;;
;; Supermodel Configuration File
;; Default settings.
;;


;
; Quick Overview
; --------------
;
; All settings are case sensitive.  Numbers must be integers.  Check your
; spelling carefully because invalid settings are silently ignored.  To verify
; that your settings are being parsed correctly, check the contents of
; Supermodel.log.
;
; Global options apply to all games.  To create configuration profiles for
; individual games, place settings under sections with the same name as the
; corresponding MAME ROM set, like so:
;
;       ; Scud Race
;       [ scud ]
;
;       SoundVolume = 50
;       MusicVolume = 200
;       ; ... etc. ...
;
; For a list of all valid settings, please consult README.txt.  Only default
; inputs are assigned here.

Aha. I've just noticed this in the log file:

[Info]  Opened C:\Users\jacob\Games\Sega Arcade\Model3\ROMs\eca.zip.
[Info]  ecau:

So I added this to my config file:

[ ecau ]

PowerPCFrequency = 160

And now the correct thing is showing up in the logs.

I think you can see where I'm going with this now.... Even though I'm using the ROM eca.zip, why is this coming up as ecau?

A bug, something to do with the romset, something else?

Just did a run through Emergency call, PowerPCFrequency was set to 166, definitely ran much better. There was a bit of lag towards the end of the 3rd level but I'm not sure if that's an emulation issue or what else now? I need to try it on the real machine 😆

Thanks for your help.

Thank you so much for your help. This is great stuff for me to get on with!

I've now tested the 3rd level (the one with the fire) using the -legacy3d option. Performance is much better there / almost perfect, but the visuals are much worse as I expected.

Using the new 3d engine with my PPC at 166. I notice a lot of lag during these moments:

So I think you're right, it's something to do with the flames / transparency.

You need a very fast cpu for 166mhz emulation. Try maybe 100mhz. Also what gpu do you have?

@jaoxford

I'll give 100mhz a go.

My specs:
AMD Ryzen 5 3600X
RTX 2060 6GB
32GB RAM

I've tried again with ppc ranging from 60-166 in increments of 10. I would say that none of them have completely fixed the performance where it's on par with the legacy3d engine. It's definitely an improvement over where I started though!

I'm still getting big dips down to anywhere between 35-50fps with a fair bit of input lag. I'm not really sure what else I can do to fix the performance?

That card should be MORE than fast enough. Are you sure you aren't using integrated gfx lol. What resolution are you using? Are you using super sampling?

I'm pretty sure I don't even have integrated graphics on my CPU lmao. 😆

I'm running in 4k (3140 x 2160). I'm not using any supersampling.

Running in 1080P & 1440P removes all lag for me though! So must be a 4k / GPU issue.

You can try using the triangle renderer, it's a lot cheaper on the GPU

just don't enable -quad-rendering

Setting QuadRendering = false and running in 4k the difference in performance is negligible. My frames still tank when there are flames.

So far the best solution for me has been to downgrade my resolution to 1440p, whilst keeping Quadrendering to true, and the PowerPCFrequency at 166. That gives me the best performance and visuals.

Have you ever recorded cpu and gpu usage when lag occurs?
Maybe you can try this build,
https://www.supermodel3.com/Files/Git_Snapshots/Supermodel_0.3a-git-4c727ab_Win64.zip
after this version , the new 3d engine updates the api to opengl 4+ .From then on, the nightmare of lags began...

No I've not tried to record CPU / GPU. Any recommendations / suggestions on how to do so?

I've tried to use the legacy-3d engine on the latest build which solved the lag issue, but the visuals were poor.
