Tutorial on how to get a fully working wii menu like in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56sNUvaSnlU

To any who cant get the wii menu to properly work and channels to launch properly I have a solution. In order to get a fully functional Wii Menu most important you need to download any of the latest dev builds. ES_Launch was fixed in 4.0-1953 so any dolphin dev after works... but that's not all in order to still get a fully functional Wii menu, you need Wii system menu 2.0, because 2.0 is the only Wii menu that fully works with dolphin, anything else would crash or loop when launching channels. Also to get the Mii channel to work properly, you must download the very first version anything new doesn't launch.
Step 1: Download latest Dolphin dev build
Step 2: With NUS Downloader, download Wii System Menu 2.0U, and pack as wad.
Step 3: With NUS Downloader, download the very first Mii Channel version2. pack as wad.
Final Step: Install the wads with Dolphin Emulator

Now you should be good to go. I done all the steps above and I have a fully functional wii menu. Am able to leave the game am playing and return to wii menu anytime, with anygame. Mii channel launches perfectly.

I'm curious about trying to play New Super Mario Bros Wii with a friend using netplay, he does not have a Wii controller. Assuming you can configure Dolphin to use any controller (in this case it'll be an Xbox 360 controller), what happens when games use motion as a control?

For instance in said game, waggling is used to both spin jump and to move the bubble you respawn in if one of you dies, is it possible to just make this a button you need to tap repeatedly?

Hello so I'm pretty new to dolphin, and pretty much got all the GameCube stuff down now I'm onto using the Wii. So when I try to connect just a genuine Nintendo Wii remote my built-in Bluetooth recognizes it as "Nintendo RVL-CNT-01" and I click next, then it sends me to a box where it ask for a pass code /// http://i.imgur.com/ljG4vLI.png ///.

A thank you in advance for any help

I find myself unable to play any games on dolphin without it crashing before i can even play it. In super smash bros melee, my game will crash rite when i am about to choose a map to play on. In Super Mario SunShine, the game will crash right after the opening scene. I have updated all of my video drivers and updated dolphin but nothing has worked, it my computer not compatible with dolphin or is my graphics settings not set accordingly. Please send me Skype username if you would like to look at the problem through screen share.

Hi, sorry for my bad English, I speak French.
I'm "trying" to play Wind Waker on Dolphin 4.0-3638, but I'm only getting 80% speed in some parts. I opened the task manager and saw that the processor was only used at 40%....
How can I use all of it?
Thanks!

Sorry if this should of been posted in the Google issues site, since this only occurs on android and almost all the issues posted there are related to PC builds.

So as the title says, since Build #532 https://buildbot.dolphin-emu.org/builder...builds/532 any game will crash upon start-up with the ARM Recompiler, but with the interpreter everything works fine (slow!).

What surprises me the most is that it was almost a month ago, and I think since most the devs probably use the Nividia K1 it might of been something to do with the CPU Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 with the Adreno 330 (Tab Pro 10.1 LTE, stock rom, Android 4.4.2 if that helps). I'm not sure of this as I only have one android device.

Games aren't at a playable stage yet with the previous build anyway (5-10fps), however I still like something better than nothing

processor is AMD A6-4400M APU with Radeon HD graphics onboard and its a dual core with another logical core for floting points so techincally 3 cores. graphics driver is Gallium 0.4 on AMD ARUBA.
OS is Ubuntu 14.04 LTS everything is up to date

now with that out the way...games run at 60fps normally but a few run at 30-25 like zelda twilight princess which is very gpu intensive anyways so i expect that. but some games i am experiencing a teal color tint to menus or ingame i am seeing the same color or white and has missing textures or even some of the textures will load on a modle but some parts like the weapon or a hat or something will be missing its textures. i dont know if this is an actual emulation issue like a part is missing that isnt decoding the textures right emulator wise or if it is on my end and i have to install a better driver like a mesa driver and risk messing with my amd drivers. any feedback would be nice

super smash bros melee(menus and OCCASIONLLY in game probobly a bug from the menu carrying into the game), zelda twilight princess(menus are fine, ingame missing textures EVERYWHERE and some textures missing on npc modles. link is perfectly fine some reason)

just some examples of games i ran into.

I've installed a 4.3 system menu for dolphin, it runs fine, and i installed the homebrew channel, but whenever i try to run Wad Manager V1.7, it comes up with a black screen (That doesn't refresh, as it still has the yellow writing at the top half faded) also with horribly distorted sound.

I have an i7-4790k at 4.5ghz, and a GTX 970.

I do not want to run 'Wad Manager V1.7' to install wads, as dolphin already has an inbuilt wad installer, i want to run it so i can dump the audio!
I've tried a few things, different sound settings seem to alter it a bit, as in, horribly distorted, or no sound at all.

Hi,
I haven't bought a new graphics card yet because no gfx card has HDMI 2.0 support and my 4K TV has no Displayport plugs. But NVidia's latest series of graphics cards finally has HDMI 2.0! But they are really expensive... So before I'll get one I'd like to know if someone already ran dolphin on it at 4K-res and could tell me how the performances are especially for games like F-Zero GX, Twilight Princess, Skyward sword, Metroid games, Mario & Sonic at the XXX olympics...
And does the performance decrease when recording a video of the gameplay?
I think I should also mention that my CPU clock is at 3,1GHz (3.8 turbo).

Well, I expect that most games would run fine at 4K, since the graphical requirements aren't as high as for the latest PC games. But it's always nice to verify.

I got a .gsc for Dolphin, the latest version for x32. Whenever I launch it I go to open my game and it crashes before the game loads, I put graphics to lowest and I think my gpu is broke so it uses my integrated but why will it refuse to work on integrated, is that the problem?

For some reason, trying to assign buttons to my wireless controller (Which works just fine in the stable but slow 4.0.2 build) no longer works. It refuses to acknowledge any buttons I push from that controller, and won't respond unless I clear out the entire controller options menu.

Has anyone experienced this before? Again, the 4.0.2 build works fine, although it goes ridiculously slow even on basic Gamecube games.

I was looking for a wii remote/wii remote plus controllers to use with dolphin. I found on big chinese e-market websites controllers considerably cheaper than authentic nintendo controllers. And considering how many units that specific seller already sold, these controllers seem to work fine. So, my question is, assuming that these generic controllers work fine with wii, does this automatically mean that they will work fine with dolphin? In other words, is there any difference in controller requirements between wii and dolphin?

Was thinking about playing though New Super Mario Bros Wii with a friend over netplay, will we be able to save our progress while doing so?

Also while I'm at it, the netplay guide says this about Wii games "Cache and Wii folders must be synced. ", I have no idea what that means.

When playing gradius rebirth with the "unlimited use of konami code" gecko cheat enabled will cause dolphin to crash when you die. I can post the full log if you want, but this is where the crash occurs:

On the GCPad menu, there is a checkbox for 'Iterative Input'

What does this setting do? There is no tooltip and google turns up no results.

I just bought a generic (non-Nintendo) Wii remote & Nunchuck and I wanted to try them on the latest version of Dolphin.
The Wii remote just worked perfectly but when I tried games that requires the Nunchuck, They didn't recognize It!
Many people are confirming that They are using a 3rd party Wii remote and Nunchucks without any problems on Dolphin.
What am I missing ?
