Also, it can only load a save state from a specific game. Note that PPSSPP can only load PPSSPP save states not save states from other emulators.

Loading a save state: To load a save state that you previously saved, go to File > Load State File.

Type in a name for the save then click Save or press the Enter key.

Capturing a save state: To capture a save state go to File > Save State File.

These saves require an extra step but allow you to save a state as a file with a custom name. You could also press the F3 key to change slots, or press the Esc key during gameplay. You can toggle between these slots by going to File > Savestate Slot and choose a slot.

5 States! PPSSPP lets you save up to 5 different quick save states.

You could also press the Esc key during gameplay to access the save states screen to load a state.

Loading a quick save: To load a quick save that you previously saved, go to File > Load State, or press the F4 key.

You could also press the Esc key during gameplay to access the save states screen to save a state, which looks like this:

Capturing a quick save: To capture a quick save go to File > Save State, or press the F2 key.If you want instant gratification, quick saves are the instant saving you want. If even skipping buffer effects doesn't improve PPSSPP's performance, then your computer isn't fast enough to handle PPSSPP.

To enable this, go to Game Settings > Rendering Mode > Skip buffer effects. It'll cause some pieces of graphics that were once beautiful to be solid black. Skipping buffer effects will disable any special graphical effects. Now we're jumping into sacrificing graphic quality. This should be enough to improve performance. To enable frameskipping just go to Game Settings > Frameskipping > Auto. Enable frameskippingĮnabling frameskipping will allow you to keep optimal graphics, but animation will no longer be smooth. But if even 1x doesn't help (or looks too ugly), keep reading. All that lowering the resolution does is make the screen look a little blurry and slightly more pixelated. If 3x still doesn't improve your performance, try 2x. You can do so by going to Game Settings > Rendering Resolution > 3x. You can force PPSSPP to always render in a lower resolution. By default, PPSSPP is automatically setting the rendering resolution depending on the size of the window or if you're in full screen mode. I think this is the best start toward better performance.
