I get better frame per seconds in software approximate vs accurate, but I am wondering what the difference is, what does software approximate mean?

I think accurate just emulates very closely to the original SNES while approximate cheats a bit for a boost. If you try FF3 you'd see a difference. The Menu in battle has a faded color while using approximate while it's correct in accurate.

Hi,
In accurate software, it is the snes9x original way of rendering. Which is closest as possible from the original snes hardware.
The problem is that it uses a software Z buffers as an example, which slow down the per-pixel process.
Approximate is our own way of doing the rendering,
in this case stuff like transparency(add-sub), priority may
act differently than the original Snes9x emulator.
In some games, you may not see the difference and thats what make the trick : rendering goes faster while looking the same.
