Best Compression Technique

$
0
0
So I'm looking to shrink my NGC and Wii collection. I'm not looking for archive quality compression more so compression ratio, looking for what is the best method for removing dummy files and padding and compares games down while still keeping games playable. For NGC I settled on original ISO > GameCube ISO Tool > Dolphin's built in compressor. I have heard stories that some games don't run right after being trimmed like animal crossing (but then again I can't seem to find any sources to prove that is a thing besides what I've read on an emulation wiki). Any suggestions that might work better for NGC or Wii?

What's the meaning of "+-" and "-+" for Axes and Sliders?

$

There's "Slider 0+-" and "Slider 0-+" besides "Slider 0+" and "Slider 0-", but I never figured out what they mean and what's the difference between them.
I tried a quick google and had no luck. The controller section of the Dolphin wiki says
Quote:NOTE: If the controller is significantly off center in Dolphin but nowhere else, check all controller axis to see if one has a "+-" on it. This is not supposed to happen and is the source of your bug.
but no further explanation.
Could anyone tell me what do they exactly mean?
Thank you.

"Configure input" dialog title bar stops working after "Detect"

If I press "Detect", after the detection (either a success detection or just timeout) the title bar (including the X) stops working, making it impossible to cancel the dialog.
The only way I found to make it work again is to click the device selection combo box.
Version is 5.0-8935, and I don't see anything related in the latest update release notes at the time of editing...

Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door

Recently the Dolphin app went through a huge update. Because of this I have not gotten Paper Mario TTYD to run on my phone. I get in the boat to go to rogue port and then the app crashes. I don't think this is a problem with my phone because I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S9. Now if there's something I need to download in order for it to work or if I need to wait for the next update, please let me know. I just need some help because this game is literally the primary reason I downloaded Dolphin Emulator in the first place. Thank you so much! (Also keep in mind I've been through several different roms for PMTTYD so I'm pretty sure it's a problem with app).

How to make games look like "Pixar" memories quality.

$
0

When I was young and the Gamecube was about to be released, I was in awe. In my memories the games almost look like they were pre-rendered "Pixar" CGI, Luigi's Mansion especially.

But the problem is that on emulator or rather on PC, the particular processing and shading that gave it this coherent, smoothed-out look on console always got broken by the PC raw interpretation of graphics, which looks clearer, but also way more aliased and polygonal.

So I know the techniques used by console don't necessary mean better quality graphic, especially the annoying grey blurs, but there's just something about the way graphic were coherently smoothed on console and I want to get that effect back on Dolphin.

Is there a way, with current graphic technologies, drivers and shaders, to have some smoothing FX, gaussian blurring or shaders to have something that looks coherently smoothed and continuous in the whole scene like on actual consoles?
Thanks.

HELP. How can I set up 2P multiplayer on Android? (Same device

$

Hi, I'm using dolphin 5.0-8993 on Android. I'm trying to play melee in 2P mode using touchscreen as P1 and a Bluetooth controller as P2.

I'm used to do this in Mupen64 to play Smash64 and it works just fine.

I've tried setting the Bluetooth controller as P1 as well as P2, disabled every controller, mapped in every possible way, and everytime I try to play the touchscreen interfere with the Bluetooth controller, moving both players instead.

Is there something I've missed? Can I set the touchscreen to P2 only?

Lowering the Resolution Beyond Default 480p

Hi, I'm new here, so I was wondering if there was a way to lower the resolution beyond the default Wii/GameCube settings. This is probably a stupid question and I am not asking for it to be added in. I was just wondering if there is a configuration folder I could play around with to manually adjust the resolution. I am running Dolphin on the Google Pixel, I don't expect performance to be perfect, but I was hoping lowering the resolution below 480p would help.

LG G7 poor performance on dolphin oficial builds

Hi guys i am getting a very poor perfomance with my lg g7 on dolphin emulator official build, i've tested new super mario brothers and resident evil 4 on galaxy s9 and on lg g7 with the same snapdragon 845, 4gb of ram and Android 8, there was a huge difference, in resident evil 4 i got steady 30fps on s9 and around 20fps on g7, on new super mario brothers i got a lot of slowdowns on g7 and a great perfomance without slowdowns on s9.

Is there a way to fix this ? Is my something wrong with my smartphone ? I mean it should not be any significant difference between it's perfomance and the galaxy s9. Something is definatelly wrong...

I did more tests with donkey kong country returns and Found out that performance start around 60fps then It drops to 30fps after a few seconds that the game boots or i load a save state. I get the expected performance for the Snapdragon 845 If i use a custom build

So what is going on ? Is the problem with my phone ? Huh

Nvidia Shield - Castlevania The Adventure Rebirth Issue

$

Hi guys,

I want to play the wiiware game ''Castlevania The Adventure ReBirth'' on my Nvidia Shield but it's very laggy and unplayable.
I don't understand why, because Contra ReBirth and Gradius ReBirth, very similar graphism, work perfectly.
I can play 3D games like Melee, Soul Calibur, Fire Emblem etc, so why a little 2D game can't have a good framerate?
Is there something i can do to run this game at full speed?
Maybe specific settings i guess.

Thanks in advance.

Can Wii games be launched by ID?

Like steam, can arguments be used to run a Wii game. An example would go along these lines:

Dolphin.exe R3ME01

Is this possible? If so, what syntax is required?

Vulkan renderer issue on Nvidia Shield TV

Hello everyone,

My Nvidia Shield TV is updated with the latest version, and i'm using the latest build of Dolphin Android (5.0-8993) but if i choose the Vulkan video renderer and then launch a game, no matter which one, the emulator says ''Failed to create Vulkan instance'' and after i press ok it says ''Failed to initialize video backend!''.
I saw on Youtube and on forums that the Nvidia Shield works perfectly with Vulkan but not mine.
Everything is ok when i use Vulkan with PPSSPP, it works perfectly.
So what's the problem with Dolphin?
Is there something i have to do to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance for your help guys.

BT DualShock 4 bumpers not recognized

$

(I wasn't sure whenever to put this here on in the Controllers section)

I'm trying to set up Dolphin on my Mi Mix 2S (full specs are in my signature) with a DualShock 4 connected via Bluetooth.
The issue is, while the controller works perfectly fine outside of Dolphin, when I try configuring the GameCube controller, the bumpers don't get recognised at all, while all other buttons do. Here's a video showcasing the issue.

I'm running Dolphin 5.0-8991, downloaded from the Play Store.

App is not functioning properly

Hi, so I just downloaded Dolphin a few times and let me try to explain the issue.

So I havent downloaded any roms yet, thats because i dont wanna risk wasting 1gb of data without being certain that I'll be able to play the game. So I tried launching the app to see what it does. After launch it said, "Allow Dolphin to access sd card?" and I pressed yes. Then the ui appeared but that was it. Nothing else happened. I couldnt press any of the few buttons, seemed like it froze.

So I closed the app and launched it again. This time the ui didn't even appear. Only the blue bar on the top could be seen. But nothing else would happen. I restarted several more times and the same thing happened.

So then I thought that uninstalling and reinstalling the app might solve the issue. So I did that. After first launch the same events occured where it asked for sd card access permission and after pressing ok the same old ui but nothing was operable still. After restarting the same event as last time would occur; i.e a blue bar on the top and nothing else. I uninstalled and reinstalled one more time and exact same series of events occured then.

So i was wondering if it's because I haven't downloaded a rom yet, or if it's a bug, or if it's just that my phone is not compitable with this app(My phone is huawei y5, android v.6). I even downloaded from your official website, the latest version that apparently had been updated an hour ago, but that had the same results. So I am sad?.

I really wanna be able to emulate gamecube on my phone, there are so many games I'm just dying to play. I really encourage your effort on making it possible, and all the positive reviews on play store gives me hope. So I'm looking forward to developments to the app, and hopefully a solution to my problem, so I can fulfil my wish.?

Thanks a lot in advance?.
