Resistance 2 [BCES00226]

Game is playable enough as of 0.0.23-14082.

Game is mostly a 30 fps experience (with a few views dropping beneath 30, but rarely). I tested on 5700 XT + R5 3600, Vulkan, Windows 11, drivers 22.7.1.

Here are my settings for best performance and visuals.

Start from Defaults
DO NOT use either patch for FOV or FPS unlock
SPU XFloat Accuracy: Approximate
SPU loop detection: Enabled
Preferred SPU Threads: 2-3 seems fine?
SPU Block Size: Safe
ZCULL: Approximate
ZCULL: Precise DOES HELP with correct LODs, but reduces performance, so stick to "Approximate".
Multithreaded RSX
Async Texture Streaming
RSX FIFO Accuracy: Atomic
While still completely CPU bound, lowering resolution does still improve performance. Stick to 1440p or lower, don't use 4K.
16xAF works well
Vsync works well

Bonus:
ZCULL: Relaxed breaks the game
SPU XFloat: Relaxed breaks the game
SPU Block Size above Safe: breaks the game or reduces performance
MSAA - disabled it does improve performance, but the jaggies are way too noticeable, even if you inject FXAA + SMAA from ReShade for example

ReShade FXAA + SMAA helps in reducing jaggies further.
