Custom Discord game titles not working

$

0
I have enabled the `Show Current Game on Discord` option in Dolphin Emulator, but it doesn't seem to work. By default, I am loading custom game titles so I tried it without `Titles.txt` but it still doesn't work. Is this a known bug, or is this feature incomplete?

Kirby's Return to Dreamland - USA Rom runs in Japanese and shows error messages!!!!!

$

Since I run Kirby's Return to Dreamland on my Lenovo ideapad 330-Laptop it doesn't work correctly.
Every time I start Kirby, it for some reason runs in Japanese. And every 3 seconds there appear around 3 error messages (Invalid read from 0x... PC = ...) on my display that don't let me play.
I tried everything I could to fix that problem!!!
I checked the MD5, but it perfectly matched with everyone's MD5. I searched this kind of error in the internet, but didn't find any solution. I tried the latest developer version of Dolphin but it was the same
there. I searched in the data files of Dolphin under
C:\Users\---\OneDrive\Documents\Dolphin Emulator for any suspicious files that could cause this problem. But I couldn't fix it.
Eventually a friend came to me with his laptop and I ran it on his PC with an external hard drive. It worked PERFECTLY as it should!!! It was NOT in Japanese and had NO error messages!!! After that I retested it on my old and really slow potato desktop and it ran really laggy there but ALSO correctly!!! And after that I couldn't explain myself WHY it only runs wrongly on MY PC!!! The internet couldn't help me!!!
So I really hope that someone could help me fixing it.

Real Nunchuck suddenly not working

$

Hey all, sorry in advance if this is in the wrong place. New to the forums. Anyway, I just downloaded Dolphin last weekend. I set it up with my wiimote with built in wiimotionplus and nunchuck and started playing some super Mario galaxy 2. Worked perfectly but I realized I would need a sensor bar to enjoy dolphin to the fullest. I stopped and ordered a sensor bar and did not touch dolphin again for a couple days until it arrived. After hooking up the sensor bar I have not been able to get any games to recognize my nunchuck that was working a week ago. I am currently using Bluetooth pass-through and have tried everything I can think of. Different WiiMotes, Different Nunchucks, nothing seems to work. I have been googling furiously and looking through these forums but I have not yet been able to figure out a solution. If someone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated!

GameCube Controller Adapter Connected, But Still Not Putting Any Inputs in!

Hello Dolphin Community!

Im trying to play Super Smash Bros. Melee, and I have been trying to troubleshoot this myself for many hours. I look online to see if there is anything about this issue... I only found a few comments of people saying the same thing. I tried uninstalling the drivers, confirming with Zadig that the driver is correct "057E 0337" and switched to "WII U". The controller configuration is in Wii GameCube Adapter, and says that all the ports are connected, but whenever I try to play the game, nothing moves, no hand to choose character, nothing. I restarted my PC, and even pushed for a Windows update, nothing. If anyone had this issue, and/or found a way to fix it, can you please share more information?

Thanks!

Dolphin Benchmark

When looking at the benchmark scores for CPUs, is there a score that would indicate Dolphin would run full speed for all games (except ones which do not run full speed at all)? Or does the benchmark itself not determine emulation performance?

I just got a new pc with a 5700 XT and a 3700x. I also have 16gb of DDR4 at 3200 speed. what will give me a good framerate and look nice at the same time for the majority of Wii and GameCube games?

A strange thing I found with the GCN bios

Hey guys. I found out something kind of strange but helpful. I was trying to run Wind Waker, but found that my VPS was staying around 40-45. So basically, my performance was pretty bad. But I was playing around with the Gamecube bios and found that when I changed from no disk to Wind Waker, my FPS locked at 30 and my VPS locked at 60. So for some reason, starting Wind Waker through the bios and not from the main screen ended up helping me. Just wanted to share I guess lol.

Dolphin v10344 Killed Rock Band instrument support

$

I pinpointed Dolphin version 10344, which was an update for libusb passthrough, as the culprit for killing USB passthrough on RB instruments. I am aware that there have been some issues and fixes recently for USB passthrough, but it still affects RB instruments on the most recent Dolphin version. Not only that, but RB3 (which is the only one I've tested, but most likely all titles) suffers major frame drops from version 10344 onwards.

Is my old Lenovo Y410p enough?

$

I have an old Lenovo Y410p with an i7-4700MQ and a GT 750m. I've been wanting to make a emulator box and rather than trying to make one with a Pi4 and not being able to play the newer console games I thought I might be able to dust off my old laptop and give that a go. Ill need to buy a HDD for it before I start which is why I wanted to check before wasting money on it. I know the GPU isn't even close to good anymore but is it enough for things like Wii Sports and the Wii Zelda games? Id need at least 30 fps to enjoy the experience.

Best way to play Madworld with Mouse and Keyboard or Xbox One Gamepad

hello! as most people know, Madworld uses motion controls on the original Wii, which makes playing it on an emulator quite not very easy (at least to configure the inputs). does anyone have a recommended setup for Mouse and Keyboard or Xinput? it would be greatly appreciated

Dolphin 8+ Controller Recognition for Parsec & Dual Emulator use Via BBA link on 1 PC

[color=#ffffff]Dolphin 8+ Controller Recognition for Parsec & Dual Emulator use Via BBA link on 1 PC... [/color]
[color=#ffffff]+some[/color]


[color=#ffffff]Im using parsec (allows people to connect to my pc w/ their controllers and control a game with 0 latency!) anyways i can connect 8 players in 1 party. I was playing mario kart: double dash!! and i hooked up 2 emulators w/ BBA lan play on the same pc. both emulators split in half horizontally 2 players on top 2 on bottom ( driver and item thrower) now here is where it gets a little hairy so bear with me... my computer recognized the 8 controllers but dolphin will only recognize the first 4 controllers ( or so i think, haven't trouble shooted but perhaps i can have the first 4 players disconnect with the emulators minimized and have the other 4 connect with the 2nd emulators open, connect them then have the other 4 rejoin and perhaps i can trick dolphin into using all 8 players that way...) now ive tested and say i have controller port number 1 connected to my game pad i close the controller configuration and minimize dolphin then open the same configuration on the other emulators and set controller port number 1 to my keyboard then they both work separately unless i open the game pad emulator then it will switch to my keyboard. so effectively what im asking is 1: can you give dolphin the ability to have more then 4 controller ports and 2: if not at least have dolphin recognize the multiple controllers as i can just change them manually and not click back to the first emulator that i left with the other 4 controllers.[/color]
[color=#ffffff]or maybe you know of a plugin if someones made perhaps?[/color]
[color=#ffffff]btw it seems if you leave the emulators idle for too long after they've (found) each other via BBA link it freezes perhaps either leaving them idle w/ out clicking start for too long or b/c  of clicking onto something else triggers the freeze perhaps and once it freezes yo cannot link two emulators via BBA with each other from the same dolphin installation you have to reinstall dolphin for it to work...[/color]

conduit game IR aiming

$

I am trying to play the conduit with mouse and keyboard setting, However, I have an issue:

I have mouse mapped to wiimote.

In traditional PC and console games, when you move the mouse, the camera moves while your crosshair stays at the center.

With the conduit, the crosshair moves all around the screen, and the camera itself doesn't move much.

Is there any way dolphin can force the camera to move so that the crosshair is always in the center like a tradition FPS? Thanks!

Just updated my Dolphin. Performance dramatically decreased.

llo. I just update my Dolphin 5.0 xxxx(? idk which build i were using. a few months old one) with the auto-update because of the pop-up.
After that my Zelda TP emulation speed went from ~160% to 50%. I tried to use various builds - the newest one or a month old - same result.

Before the update i was using a few months old (3 or maybe 5 im not sure) version of Dolphin, and my emulation speed was just perfect for Zelda TP.

I checked the settings - seems like everything there is fine. So i have no idea what the problem is. I want to find which build i were using. Can you help me with that?

Updater.log has the follwing:
Updating from: https://update.dolphin-emu.org/manifest/win/e7/3a/3ba1c626041f3a6e2aecda048c56680e533e.manifest
Updating to:   https://update.dolphin-emu.org/manifest/win/2f/5e/6cfff16bc9c6eff5800a009d23c1b98078ca.manifest

Or maybe i could get the build number from the save state somehow?


If i'm using a very very old build (6203) everything seems fine (160% speed). But with one of the newer builds i only have 40%.

Does NAND import overwrite save files?

I've been using Dolphin for a few years and on the weekend finally got around to importing a bootmii backup of my Wii's NAND.

Did I just overwrite all my game saves that I've been working on in Dolphin with the ones that were on the NAND?
Any help is most appreciated! Smile

Integer scaling

Is Integer scaling really a thing??
Intel gonna support Integer Scaling along with NN in their new gpus https://www.techpowerup.com/256801/intel-adds-integer-scaling-support-to-their-graphics-lineup
There is much hype about Integer scaling in use for emulation, found on some forums, and there are many emu scaling guru's opinions how good IS is. As well mario game picture in above link tries to show the impact on emulation quality.

Since always, i have never used that ugly neirest neighbour scaling algo at all. IS looks the same to NN when use same factors like 2x2 or 3x3. There is a misunderstanding among people over the net what IS and NN gives. I saw tutorials with advice to switch to NN scaling in video player options during watching movies lol. Because monitors enable bilinear scaling on its own and introduse bluring. Crazy.

I went to official Intel FAQ and saw finally some sane statement: Users sometimes try to play games with various emulators. Most often in these scenarios, the emulator handles scaling on its own, and this cannot be resolved using Intel’s scaling implementation. I cannot imagine playing a nes/snes games on HD or 4k monitor without some pixelart scaling. Or..it is me who dont get it that watching huge pixels is a fun?

After all IS looks useful for really old PC games, that have implemented much lower max resolution than our monitor resolution. That way we can use IS to "integer magnify" game picture to avoid blurry Windows desktop scaling or monitor scaling.

Does anybody have different view on it?

I recently downloaded the latest dev build partially because I wanted to play around with Ubershaders, but I can't get the option to enable them. Am I missing something, or did they get removed for a few builds?
