RE: "DisableAlphaTest" option
What games started running slowly? Can you tell me how much slower they run?

We fixed a few major cases where it was using alpha test unnecessarily, I hoped that would eliminate the need for this hack.

RE: "DisableAlphaTest" option
So far its only dissidia 12 was 30 fps on 0.9.8-264
420+ build 18-20 fps
And maybe tenkaichi tag, god of war
I think the alpha test option was a useful speed boost
Even though there were graphics glitches
I'll test out some more games

Most of my games run fine... I can't find any difference in the speed
Except dissidia 12 final fantasy
Lags a lot...
There are a few others that I haven't tested yet...
Good work...
I'll keep testing

RE: "DisableAlphaTest" option
Duodecim with build 430+ . What ive noticed that with buffer and frameskip 2 ive got less fps than without frameskip lol.... and game could be completly playable but crappy sound without frameskip just wont do it altrough game is completly playable is pandemonium and few stages in others lags badly. Next thing i noticed was a constant freeze during gameplay(occurs in all games) freeze is like 3 sec then it turns back to game.

RE: "DisableAlphaTest" option
I noticed a significant increase on speed even without the disable alpha test option, but
some of the games that do a lot of alpha tests still lags on my dual-core powerVR device.
I think, pVR android phones still needs that option, specially for mid-range smartphones.

RE: "DisableAlphaTest" option
yes, this option can't be totally useless, for me speed is more important (and for others with devices not so powerful), the more hacks, the better speed, the more choices, I say
