[RPCS3] wipEout HD pre-Alpha build at 240 FPS

[@CyberFan567]

This looks interesting. It appears that WipEout HD runs in the same engine the PSP WipEout games run in, but with many different changes, like the improved graphics for example. I also like how the alpha build even had the same sound effects from WipEout Pulse, as well as the physics and camera movement.

We knew this

[@AmaroqStarwind]

Is that the unlockable Qirex concept ship from WipEout Pulse? Man, I wish they re-added a lot of these pre-alpha things as unlockables or something…

[@Adderflail]

Shame about the retail release having adverse effects at high FPS. I dig the more classic ship design 👀.

[@Walter_]

Woa, the hot pink + white style with hexagons is the exact same style used in Sound Voltex 2. i think it looks kind of cool

[@pissmilker2313]

All the pink UI elements are a result of shaders failing to render/cross-compile properly

[@CodyDBuni]

Is that Aphex Twin's "Analogue Bubblebath" at 0:00 mark?

[@platinumdynamite]

100% is

[@milktar2182]

Since the outwardly banked corner in released version of the game is plastered with Piranha billboards, would the Piranha Bowl (what the corner is canonically called) been called the EGX Bowl considering the corner has EGX in the pre-alpha version

[@THEFREEEMAN]

what i want to know is what are the stats for the early qirex craft and what craft in the final game is the most similar

[@illusion0001]

Good stuff

[@Desire-Drive]

Niceu !!

[@fabulousneet1180]

I suppose it doesnt't work with real PS3 right? Gives me a 80010009 error =(

[@646AWESOME]

Dang nice, what's your PC specs? Also am somewhat unfamiliar with HD but it looks like you're playing in super phantom or something and the UI looks slightly different (could be due to emulation I guess), how's it go so fast

[@CyrisTM]

It's the pre-alpha version, basically just a port of pulse with pure tracks. the build is from august 2007 i think.

[@matthijsboon8187]

Hi Crysis, this looks faster then the original disc version. But is this the case?

[@CyrisTM]

@@matthijsboon8187 It's based on wipeout pulse

[@matthijsboon8187]

@@CyrisTM yeah, I can see that it's based on Pulse. The ships are far less floathy just like in Pulse. But what I meant was: how do lap times compare? Between pre-alpha build and original disc version?

[@CyrisTM]

@@matthijsboon8187 Around a second, but varies on the track.. There is only two, anulpha & chenghou

[@YomiDee]

how do u load it?

[@bonkmaykr]

Where'd you find the pre-alpha for this? Not asking for an illegal copy, just wondering if there was any special steps to get ahold of it since I didn't know there was a pre-alpha leaked.

[@ThatOneBonk]

you just download shit from the link in the description my dude, simple as that

[@bonkmaykr]

@@ThatOneBonk I'm blind lol

[@ThatOneBonk]

@@bonkmaykr keep in mind that you do need an emulator for it to run. if you do have a powerful enough pc, hit me up on discord, I want to see some more gameplay lmao

[@bonkmaykr]

@@ThatOneBonk i already have whd + rpcs3 set up but it runs like doodoo. 20 to 60 FPS Rollercoaster and crashes by the 4th race usually

[@CyrisTM]

The game needs wake up delay set to at least 250-500us to prevent crashes

[@YomiDee]

how can i unlock the fps?

[@CyrisTM]

vblank rate in advanced settings on rpcs3

[@YomiDee]

and how do i disable this awful bloom? XD

[@CyrisTM]

Might be hidden in the XML code somewhere, i haven't looked though
