[@SterkeYerke5555]

Yeah I expected a netbook from 2008 with GMA graphics or something, though tbf it probably wouldn't even run any emulator that runs Sonic Unleashed besides the Wii and PS2 versions (and it wouldn't run those well at all either).

You can kinda see why they chose to hire Dimps to make a completely different version for the Wii and PS2 rather than trying to port the PS3 and X360 version to them.

[@2fernandoc1]

If they REALLY wanted to, they could just downgrade the assets and make a new engine that replicates the HD's physics and overall gameplay but tailored to the Wii's power, but that would make a lot of money and time.

[@LS95774]

Wild that a game that already runs poorly and is also capped at 60 on PS3 would depend on framerate as much as it does lol, I wonder if it's as bad there Though I also know that even when correcting for it, it seems delta time (depending on the engine) lacks the decimal precision to fix things if the frames are too high or low

This is one of the greatest videos on KZbin in the longest while! So good it made me try this challenge on my laptop!

[@Denymeister]

@ryanramjattan8714 thank you very much, and best of luck with the run. Not having speedrun tricks might help with this challenge!

[@seanbrownlee9474]

The fact that the emulator is even running on the laptop is a miracle

[@aahiljcat]

Ok, I have a couple things to say You got so lucky with xenia because it does not like low end PCs. And it crashes a lot on weaker hardware. The frames ruin the gameplay so much that, like in empire city, it would sometimes skip the frames making you go straight through an object (Also happens in frontiers and I guess generations too) I used to play this on a weak laptop and I understand the pain with the QTEs. The trick is to actually mash slower which does sound weird but it worked for me. One more thing. I recommend trying it without anything else in the background. It might help the frames a little bit and could make empire city possible

[@Denymeister]

So for the QTEs you fight fire with fire. Interesting.

[@ilytseb]

this was genuinely a great watch. i loved the editing and ur energy was great the whole time even if you did suffer 😭p.s i never knew the final boss was THAT cool.

To be honest, it's not the worst laptop yet (!). Other than that you could try patches that lower resolution (and disable dof, shadows and other graphics) to see if fos would be better. Also you can use "AMD grass explosion fix" since it just makes grass texture transparent (fixes in Adabat and Mazuri). Amazing video! Didn't expect someone to use my wiirehog as i intended it to be (i made it performance improvement)

[@Denymeister]

I actually went through not just one laptop trying to find one that worked like I said in the intro, but two 💀This was the third. That AMD grass fix and a lower resolution was used too, clearly they didn't help! But hey, at least your mod was finally put to good use.

I know this doesn't matter as much for a video like this, but man, it's always so painful watching people emulate unleashed on Xenia without realizing the game's lighting is bugged and requires a mod in order to fix it lol. Like- people will walk around the second half of Spagonia's hub at night in complete darkness and just assume "This is what the game is supposed to look like. The black filter is surely normal." (Many areas in the game have their lighting turned down for some reason, which either makes it look like there's a faint black filter over the screen, or it removes things like glows from objects.)
