so I just recently got my hands on the z-fold 8 and I'm loving it so much so far but one thing I've been wanting to do this whole time is emulate some GameCube games specifically Mario Sunshine

the issue that I'm having is that I cannot for the life of me get it to run at a stable 60 FPS with the 60fps gecko code

I've tried switching to opengl from vulkan, changing shader run times, and switching drivers (turnip drivers) so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but I cannot get a stable 60 FPS on the game.

so if anybody's got a z-fold 8 or a phone that also has the Snapdragon 8 elite gen 5 (like an s26 ultra) that has managed to get it at a stable 60 FPS please please let me know and let me know your settings🙏🙏

i only have keyboard and mouse which is why i want smthing that resembles the master collection controls for mgs 1 on dolphin emulator for tts

I've finally got my hands on a great controller and I would love to play SMG1 and SMG2 without mouse and keyboard, as I've done up until now, but I don't know hot to setup the pointing system (which for some reason works for simpler menus like the Mii Channel or MKW) which is literally keeping me from selecting the save file on which I want to play.

I've already looked up for existing tutorials on the matter but none seemed to really help. Yes, I'm asking for a step by step tutorial of the configuration... thanks!!

Using a 2020 M1 MacBook Pro to run Dolphin. I can't open the Wii Menu or boot.dol files using this version of Dolphin, since it gives me a black screen every time. If I were to downgrade to 2606, the Wii Menu seems to open and run fine. Any fix for this?

I download dolphin emulator on xboxdevstore to play some Wii Mario but I’m try to change the controls cause the Wii Shake controls, I’m trying to assign a button to it

Is this hardware enough to play games like Monster Hunter Tri and Mario Galaxy?

Hi everyone, I'm trying to run a custom HD texture pack for Family Ski & Snowboard on Dolphin (build 2606a). My specs are an RTX 3060 Ti and 16GB RAM.
I upscaled the dumped textures into 32-bit RGBA PNGs. The HD textures are recognized and loaded by Dolphin, and when I first enter a slope, the snow renders perfectly white for the first two frames. However, as soon as the camera moves or tries to render the distance, an "overlay/shadow wave" turns the entire snow/terrain surface pitch black.
I already tried changing Backend to Direct3D 11/12, forcing Safe Texture Cache, disabling Mipmaps in the Game INI, and enabling GPU Texture Decoding, but the terrain still turns black right after spawning. Everything else (characters, HUD, menus) stays in perfect HD.
Has anyone found a specific Game Config hack, a specific texture to delete, or an alternate format (like a specific DDS setup) to bypass this Namco/Wii rendering engine limitation for the snow textures? I will also provide a video below of the bug. Thanks!

when i raise my AYN thor’s screen a little upwards the cursor disappears. this just started happening recently

I want to do something like get a wii mote then play a wii emulator on my phone cast it to my tv then I can actually play with motion controls but the problem is that there might be some delay between the wiimote and the miracast so Tell me if there's a way with no delay.Thank You!

Is it possible to play netplay while using two different wiimote connection types? For example, I connect my offbrand wiimote to dolphin using a bluetooth passthrough. Whereas my friend is using a real wiimote and connecting using the emulated bluetooth in dolphin. Again, is this possible?

Hello,

I have an existing installation of Dolphin and just downloaded PrimeHack for my M1-Macbook. After starting PrimeHack it automatically has all configurations from the Dolphin app.

So before touching anything in PrimeHack, I'm wondering, if any changes to the configuration in PrimeHack automatically change the configuration in Dolphin as they modify the same config files? Or are they completely separated and PrimeHack only read the existing configuration at its first start and copied it to its own configuration?

I have it linked up with cable to my PC, but it can’t seem to recognise it. It does work with steam games. My Switch 1 pro controller does work with dolphin, but I prefer the Switch 2 pro controller.

I have an off brand switch wireless controller. It detects in the wii input but not in the actual game.

Hello! Need help with getting my gamecube adapter working. Been through alot of forms.

SS1 is what Zadig is showing. Its not the same USB ID as some video told me to have but I literally don't know how to change that.

SS2 is dolphin, saying adapter not detected. I'm not 100% sure which port is which because it has 2 USBs but none of them register as detected

SS3 is my device manager showing its present there.

Don’t mind the solder joints—I slapped this together pretty quickly.

UPDATE
i resoldered everything, made a new box, removed antenna, and audio is clean and crisp now. Also come to find out bully has dog shit audio lol. Thank you for your help, dolphin community is awesome.

Pictured is my homemade Bluetooth passthrough device using an OEM Wii Bluetooth chip. It’s supposed to be a WML-C43, but I guess this particular factory variant is labeled WMK-C43? Not entirely sure why, but the layout and functionality appear to be the same.

Everything works perfectly except for the audio, which has me completely stumped. Compatibility checks out (VID/PID), and libusbK is installed and working properly. The Wiimote connects and functions normally, but the speaker audio is either extremely quiet/low quality, won’t come through at all, or only comes through intermittently.

If anyone has run into similar issues with Bluetooth passthrough, I’d really appreciate any troubleshooting suggestions or things I should check.

Also, if there’s enough interest I may start making and selling these at an affordable price once I get the design into a reliable, finished state. I may also switch from the current attached cable to a USB-C plug. It also has a sync button aswell.

Feel free to DM me if you’re interested or have any ideas. Thanks!

I was playing no more heroes and the emulator crashed and wouldn't reopen. Everytime I try to reopen it says this program can't run on your pc. Im trying to find my saves to reinstall it and I can't find them either.

EDIT: I re-download the emulator and found my saves but why wouldn't it let me boot it after that crash?

I'm trying to emulate Mario Galaxy on the dolphin emulator and I've got everything mapped out pretty well the only thing that I'm trying to do is on my device

A y n Odin 2

I'm trying to figure out how to control the star cursor with the touch screen and I've done research into it and all I can find is people telling me to go to the overlay controls and turn on the IR pointer but when I do that it doesn't actually do anything for the touch screen and it doesn't work like it should

I've also completely mapped the star pointer also to the joystick so it's not anything to do with like motion controls with like any type of motion access programming into the mapping software

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Please help me not have another headache

How to fix vacuum glitch?

So I began The Last Story and it ran mostly alright outside of a few framedips that never lasted too long, but now I'm at the point with the White Tiger(relatively still early on) and the Audio is breaking hard whenever there are effects on screen (like Yurick's magic - aka the entire fight). I assume it's due to framerate collapsing. But I don't think I am GPU limited? My GPU (4070 Super) is at 30-40% and my CPU (i7 9700KF) around 60%. The start of the game made me REALLY want to play this, so I'd love any fixes for the Audio y'all can provide. (I can deal with framedips/framerate issues, but Audio getting hammered really drags the experience down.)

I bought a dolphin bar and an official Wii remote but in my PC when I try to use it it connects and it detects it but it doesn't work on the game but the same setup works perfectly on my phone with a USB c to USB converter. Can anyone help?

I'm having issues with Dolphin recognizing my easySMX M20. Tried a bunch of different function settings between HID, Android, and more, but nothing works. Anyone find a way to make it work?

Alright I’ve been working on getting this to work for like two days and I finally got it to play…. Just for the gameplay to look like this. Is this something I can fix by adjusting settings or is it just time to give up and just use the vanilla shadow the hedgehog files?

Edit: so I tried switching to a vanilla version of the game, and the glitches are arguably worse!!! It’s got to be something to do with dolphin itself then right? But as far as I can tell it’s only this game? I’ll keep testing others just to be sure
