Thanks for the info. I'll give it a shot next time I have the chance. I have another related question regarting unthrottling and speedup: A lua script plays the game in my case, and so does not rely on graphics rendering. It simply collects statistics. The documentations says "Make sure you're not using GDI+ display method. It's slower by far than OpenGL or Direct3d, which is preferable and should be best for most cases." Is it possible to switch off rendering completely? [edit] - Might have answered my own question. Threads like this one suggest it's not possible. https://code.google.com/p/bizhawk/issues/detail?id=267 What I was suggesting is apparently known as frame skipping and has issues.

I am running BizHawk on a laptop with a 8G RAM, an i7 broadwell CPU, and a GTX 800 M series graphics card. When I run the emulator at 400%, it shows no signs of struggling.

Hi, I'd like to run BizHawk at a speed greater than 400%. Is there some source code line or whatnot that I could edit to change 400 to, say, 2000? I naively edited the config.ini file but that didn't have an effect. Thanks
