Configure SSE4.2 emulator for Call of Duty Warzone - LGA 771 / LGA 775 C2Q Xeon E5450

[ghost]

Bonjour, j'ai essayé de paramétrer l'émulateur afin de pouvoir jouer à Call of Duty Warzone avec un Xeon E5450, mais je n'ai pas réussi à le configurer. Pourriez-vous m'aider à le paramétrer en me donnant plus de détail sur la procédure svp ?

Je vous en serais très reconnaissant. Merci par avance pour votre aide.

Does it work with plain SDE?

Does it work with plain SDE?

I didn't try, i don't really know how to configure it to make it working

See #6 and https://steamcommunity.com/app/275850/discussions/1/360672304898078434

Ok I went to read this. So shoud I apply these instructions to your files, or should I test with SDE before ?

Because if I understood well, the SDE will use more ressources than your method, right ?

SDE will use more resources... but it's a start.

OK thanks for your help. Should i apply the SDE instructions to your files ? Or should i test first with the SDE ?

Also, I already read #6 but i didn't success to complete this because of lack of instructions. I'm sorry, maybe it seems like noob questions in IT lol
But if i want to make your files working, should i do the same instructions than the one to make the SDE working ?

So i succeed to do the SDE stuff, but even by launching it with the SDE shortcut (even in Win7 mode) it doesn't work: i have the loading but it never ends...

Could you help me to try your method with this game please ?

yesterday I was trying to make it run with SDE. tried almost every single related option and argument in this goddamn emulator: -popcnt, -avx, -avx2, -sse42a, -sse42x, -fma (all of these attempts were with "-emit-illegal-insts 0" argument).

today was the most "successful" try - loading screen was passed and then the game window popped out (black screen ofc) and, as expected, it just crashed (but there was no message about it)

it was when I tried it with these arguments: -ivb (run with Ivy Bridge microarchitecture) and -emit-illegal-insts 0 (permission to "execute illegal instructions", our dear SSE 4.2). in minimum requirements, this game has I3-4340, which is Haswell microarchitecture, and I tried that one too, ofc it didn't work

most of the time, it just has a loading screen, and it can or be infinite (don't respond), or just crash.

that's it, my boy, we have to upgrade our PCs. there are no other solutions, I'm afraid.
