Props to the CXBX-R team for making an emulator that just.works. Everything appears to be rendering perfectly too. THPS 2X crashed a lot and had occasional artifacts on CXBX-R, but THPS 3 so far hasn't crashed once after already beating the first two levels. It feels very tight and looks great, so I'm just gonna avoid the PC version and maybe even avoid the PC versions when I play THPS4 through THAW as CXBX-R seems to be running very well with extremely low latency. Everything works including all buttons and vibration, and frame rate is very good with occasional drops in busy areas. The game crashes on startup (D3D error) if I set exclusive fullscreen on, but running CXBX-R in compatibility mode for Windows 7 fixes the crash. So, again with SCP Toolkit and a DS3, the Xbox version runs very well on CXBX-R. I don't want to waste my time trying to find a solution after already trying different programs.
It also doesn't recognize Xpadder keyboard mapped inputs on the controller which you'd think must work, so something is really wrong here. With SCP Toolkit installed, the PC version recognizes my Dualshock 3 controller but somehow only the face buttons and analog sticks work and not the triggers or d-pad. You can run it at high resolution on CXBX-R too. As far as I know the Xbox version is the best looking from the consoles versions, and to my eyes looks about the same as the PC version. I had issues with controller input with my DS3 on the PC version while CXBX works quite well. I tried both the PC version and CXBX-R and prefer CXBX-R.
