Issue description

Basically there are certain battles in FF7 where there are noticeable slowdowns where there weren't any (To a point where even the music slows down, cursor SFX in-battle time-stretches, etc..)

the cursor also flickers when moving between battle actions

The previous commit does not have this issue.

Step-by-step reproduction and logs

When entering certain battles, the game might slowdown (Audio as well) Moving the cursor in-battle flickers when changing options

notaz commented 6 months ago

Could you be more specific when does this exactly happen? A savestate or memcard file from just before starting such a battle would help.

medeirosT commented 6 months ago

Final Fantasy 7.zip I've attached a save file where the main character finally starts running in the world map.

FYI though, this is the NTSC copy: image

A good example is by running around the muddy area:

until you say, fight these guys:

By moving around the cursor in battle it looks like it is flickering, and there are noticeable slowdowns with the music/game

I think I've fixed the flickering, but do check for the slowdowns as I haven't noticed any before.

I'll compile the latest commit and let you know!!
