Dolphin always stuttering

So I'm having a problem with Dolphin as of late. It doesn't matter what game I play, either. The game will be running fine, but then it just stutters like crazy for 1-2 seconds. In certain games, this means messing up timing a button press. I've already got my Windows at high performance, and Nvidia settings set to maximum performance with Dolphin.

One thing I've noticed as well, if I have something playing in my second monitor at the same time, it will stutter as well. For example, if I have a youtube video playing in Monitor 2, and Dolphin in 1, when dolphin stutters, the video will as well.

Hello everyone,

So, I've been wanting to play some Starfox adventures, but Dolphin seems to have a real beef with it. By just starting the game and not even doing anything, it will soon give the following message: https://gyazo.com/249893f7efb77958357b3d6cdfbdea9e

Hitting "Ja" which is "Yes" gives me this message: https://gyazo.com/ac854183aeced6a6f1cabba008503f8d

Allow me to translate;

Unknown OP-code.

This means one of the following:
* The emulated GPU was desyncronized, deactivating doublecore might help.
* Kommandostream was corrupted by an unknown memory-error.
* It's really an unknown op-code(very unlikely)
* A different type of error

Further errors will be sent to video-backup-log and Dolphin will now most likely crash or freeze. Enjoy.

I also got this message afterwards: https://gyazo.com/1e47135278e7bd385cbd16c876621ac8

So, I've tried to disable my cores so the program is only running on one core, and that actually works. However, just one core isn't strong enough to play the game. As soon as there's larger area of the game to be emulated, the gameplay gets laggy, music struggling etc.

So... anyone able to help? I am running the 5.0 version.

Skyward Sword Issue with Slingshot Cursor Disappearing

I'm playing through Skyward Sword on dolphin and have just obtained the slingshot. However, when I move the aiming cursor it and the rest of the hud disappear behind the trees and continually pop back and forth between the front and back of the screen. This will almost make the game unplayable for me even though everything else runs great. How do I fix this?

Here is a screenshot:

Frame Rate Issue After Changing "Emulation Speed."

Earlier today my frame rate was doing fine but when I messed with the "emulation speed" in Wind Waker trying to speed through the intro the frame rate seems to have decreased drastically on all games and all many different versions of the emulator. I put the speed back to 100% by the way.

I have tried turning my computer on and off and messing with the settings but nothing seems to have worked.

hey, i'm just wondering if this small budget pc will be good enough for 'most' dolphin games, such as super mario bros & the general mario serie. I don't care about running high demanding games such as xenoblade, but most multiplayer games.



Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3

GPU: ASUS GeForce GT 710

CPU: AMD FX-8350 8C 4.0 GHz Black Edition 8MB

RAM: (2x) Corsair 4GB CL9 1600Mhz VENGEANCE


thanks guys :]

edit: sorry for small worded thread, ask me if i missed anything.

Hotkey for skip EFB access from CPU?

Is it possible to add a hotkey to toggle Skip EFB access from CPU?

This option has HUGE impact on performance but turning it off renders certain elements of some games unplayable.

Mario galaxy for example has around 30-40fps with option off with drops down to 10fps when you see the sun, even on low graphics settings (in other words: unplayable). Turn the option on tough and woilla! flawless 60fps with twice the resolution and 4x MSAA. In mario galaxy you need this option to jump between galaxies though, something you only have to do once every 5-15 minutes so i don't mind having the option off while playing and on while choosing galaxy.

It would be great if there was a hotkey for this option as entering the menus every 10 min is a bit annoying Angel

Hello everyone !

So I've been trying to run Harvest Moon Animal Parade, but it is very very laggy. I tried to find some solutions but I didn't really find (or maybe I just don't understand) anything ...

Here are the infos about my pc, directly copied from my profile :
Operating System: Windows 10 x64
Processor/CPU: Intel Core i5-6300HQ 2.3GHz
Video Card/GPU: NVIDIA GEFORE GTX 960m
Memory/RAM: 8 Go
Dolphin Revision Currently Using: 5.0

Is there hope or is my computer just not good enough for the game or emulator ?

Thank you in advance Big Grin

Does this has a solution? a config? or i just won't be able to play games that use the cursor too much? - sorry for bad english and sorry for the last post that i talked about downloading games, this won't happen again.

Xbox One Controller Unresponsive

I was planning to play a number of games from this emulator so I downloaded the 5.0 version. I connected my xbox one controller using a micro usb cable to my computer. (Works fine with all other emulators for different consoles.) I configured it perfectly changed it to the right device under the controllers tab but once I load the game and try to press a button on the controller it is fully unresponsive. It is as if the emulator doesn't recognise the controller which has really been frustrating me.
Any ideas on what the problem is and how I could fix it?

MacOS NAND Dump - Black Wii System Menu

January 31, 2017, 2:53 pm

Hello,

I'm running:

Dolphin5.0-2170

With a NAND dump from my Wii

on the following hardware:

MacOS 10.11.6
Mac Mini Mid 2011
2.7 GHz i7 16GB DDR3
AMD Radeon HD 6630M 256 MB

All Mii are imported properly, banners show up, saved games show up.

When I select "Tools -> Load Wii System Menu 513E"  I briefly see the empty card graphic, then the screen goes black and stays black (left running over night).

Install Procedure:
New Dolphin Download
Deleted Contents of ~/Library/Application Support/Dolphin save for SYSCONF
Changed permissions of Dolphin/ to: everyone read/write
Unziped clean copy of NAND dump to ~/nand
Changed Permissions of /nand to: everyone read/write
Renamed nand/shared2/sys/SYSCONF to  SYSCONF.old,
Copied previous Dolphin SYSCONF into /sys above

Launched Dolphin
Clicked Configuration - > Paths
Set ISO Paths
Set NAND Path
Close

Reload Dolphin Interface

Banners load fine.

When I select "Tools -> Load Wii System Menu 513E"  I briefly see the empty card graphic, then the screen goes black and stays black (left running over night).

The NAND Dump was done with BootMii and Extract was done with nandExtract on a windows 7 virtual machine.  Some errors were noted.  (Which supports the idea that this could be due to a problem with the NAND Dump)

Any suggestions?  All my googling indicates that NAND dumps infrequently have problems unless there is an issue with the dump itself.  I'm not 100% on how to prove or disprove a bad NAND dump.


Thanks,
Hastyr

What makes menus (generally) so slow?

Heya guys!

This is not about a specific game or anything. I'm just curious about something I've observed a lot of times in emulators (at the moment mostly Citra but it was the same with Dolphin in earlier stages):
Some games have costly 3D graphics but are smoothly emulated while simple 2D graphics like menus and stuff are sometimes awfully slow, especially transitions between different menus.
Why is this? The 2D graphics themselves cannot be so taxing, can they? Is it just some kind of idle state that needs to be skipped for it to be faster?

AMD RX 740 vs GTX 1050 Ti

Hello!

I was wondering how the performance differs between AMD's RX 470 and Nvidia's GTX 1050 Ti. While the 470 has generally better performance, I'm particularly concerned how an AMD graphics card compares to Nvidia cards on Dolphin.

Thank you for your time!

Wiimote gets connected but doesn't work as expected

Yesterday I received the dolphin bar running the latest firmware, I have the following wiimote:

https://www.saturn.de/de/product/_konix-25843-duo-controller-pack-black-wii-u-2183837.html

I added the bar to mode 4 and on the screen I got the message "connected" the wiimote vibrates and the "1" led turns on. Unfortunately only the home button works, no A not moving nothing and I get the wii message that the connection has been interrupted and I have to press A although the wiimote is still connected.
It is because of the wiimote or am i doing something wrong?

Bluetooth Passthrough dropping with Skyward Sword

Operating System: windows 8.1 x64
Processor/CPU: i7-4700HQ @ 2.40 GHz
Video Card/GPU: NVidia GTX860m
Memory/RAM: 2x8GB DDR3L Crucial
___________
RVL-036 motion plus controller + nunchuck
intel wireless bluetooth 4.0 hs+
Skyward sword runs at 30fps.

Possibly brief slow downs could be the issue. Like load time drops, a new sound/cutscene queuing up.

Have been able to play a few times for 40 mins to over an hour no issues. Other times I cannot even get to the main menu as the controller disconnects immediately after the first button press. Twice cut scenes have caused the rumble to get stuck on until the game is completely closed.

Timeline:
-intro cutscene rumble got stuck on. Pulled controller battery, couldn't reconnect.
-Attempts to relaunch the game/close dolphin and try again immediate disconnect.
-Eventually an attempt worked.
-pulled out sword for the first time = Disconnected, relaunch and no issue
-Rumble got stuck on during the cutscene with the escaping skybirdthing.
-Relaunch
-cutscene of the ceremony starting = Disconnected
-Attempts to relaunch the game/close dolphin and try again immediate disconnect.

I am sure if I try it again now it will probably work, just wondering if this is an issue with my computer dropping in performance causing out of sync data to the controller. in the sense of a dropped packets to or from the controller. The issue with not reconnecting or launching then connecting correctly is super annoying though. Thoughts?
