i have spent a lot of time tweaking this game( i love it!!) my tp2 gets 36-42 fps smooth play depending if i start fpsece right after a soft reset.... the lower my memory usage the faster/smoother my game play is. also if you disable full screen mode=0 and disable sound=0 you will often times see fps increases... oh yeah i always disable htc manilla or wm titanium before playing fpsece too. if you have a taskbar program that shows memory usage you can easily observe the memory savings by disabling these features.(thus giving more power to the emulator)

since the last release 02/01/2010, everybody have noticed that tekken3 has lower FPS, but in you look closer you will see that the game is is fact much faster...

The proof is here, set into gamelist.ini into your Tekken3 section Patch=112, which is 64+32+16, this apply RootCounter 2 timing Patch for parasite eve 2 + Frameskip mode 2 + HD boost.
Then strangely Tekken will run at 50fps on HD2(full speed for PAL), but as you'll see, it's slow compare to Patch=48...

Now to get boost, you need to compress the Game with PocketISO 3.2 and just Sectect the line with XA sectors and just select XA to MP3. (The 2 audio track won't be compressed, but it's not necessary as Musics in game are XAS).

I suppose this game is not full speed on PSone, i mean it's surely not 60fps, why playing it like that it's already extremely fast...

I was about to say the same thing, after playing a while using the new onscreen gampepad, I realized that despite the lower displayed fps, I was playing the same way, it seemed to be the same speed....

Remember to check the licence name of your tekken 3 in the fpse.log (if you don't see the name, like on the post above, modify the "enableHLE=X" status in the fpse.ini) so that the patch can apply

I also can not see the on screen buttons. I became and installed the supporter version today but nothing changed.. The licence name is the same as mentioned above..

Actually i am also a little bit confused about fpsece versions.. It has been said that in the latest version this issue has been fixed.. so, how do i know that i have the latest version of fpsece and how do i update later (if a newer version comes out) ? Do i need to download every updated version from homepage and apply my supporter version patch ?

As i said, im really confused.. Any help ?

Once you have donated once, you will be emailed whenever a new supporter version is made available. When a new free version is released, install it. You will probably receive a new supporter version to coincide with said release, and you can install that over the updated free version.
Note: I'm saying "if" and "when" the new free version is released, I don't want newbies asking for the new version, because it doesn't exist yet.

ok thank you.. but how about the buttons ? i still can not see the layout on screen ?
By the way i am using the Pad skin, did everything as described but no success.. When i clear the layout and map the pad again, i see the pad for half a second and it goes away.. no way to get them back..

There is a fix for that, but since I'm not a big fan of fighting games, I haven't looked too much into it. I'm sure someone who knows what to do could post it here, it would be helpful to all those asking this question.

With the right license name, and you don't have the overlays??

I found the problem.. There was a different License name/version in my gamelist.ini file.. so i edited it according to my game version and now i have the overlays..
Hope it helps others, who also has this problem..

Solved:
Enable (temporary) in fpse.ini HLE = ON. Then it will write your driver in the log!
Read driver in fpselog.txt (mine is like this):
