Mario Kart Arcade GP2

Whoa! I'm a big Mario Kart fan. Did not know this was available for Dolphin. Very Cool.

[Hero of Legend]

BBK PMed me the 640x480 shots of Mario Kart AGP2:

And now I have to make a comparison:





The model looks high in polygons, but the kart looks really bad, especially those wheels. O_o

Also the gloss in 7 really shines.

But you gotta love that colorful design in the Arcade shot above! :D

I remember once upon a time hoping that Arcade would be a representation of the Revolution since the Triforce was a beefed up GC, but we got even better-looking games by a mile! :D Shame MKWii didn't really receive a nice upgrade from DD. :/

[Foffy]

So, I figure if I get this sensor bar and this Bluetooth dongle, I'm good to go?

Personally, I'd use a bluetooth adapter from here: http://wiibrew.org/wiki/List_of_Work...etooth_Devices

Yours may work, but it may not. It's a slight gamble, since it seems the majority work fine with Wiimotes. Unless you found a report that it works with wiimotes somewhere.

[Dacvak]

Whoa! I'm a big Mario Kart fan. Did not know this was available for Dolphin. Very Cool.

Wow, that's outrageous. Is F-Zero AX playable on Dolphin out of curiosity?

[Lime]

Anyone have the Dolphin version that allows for Okami to be played in OpenGL? The D3D backends do not support the game and I get black lateral lines on the latest versions of Dolphin.

I'm pretty sure that the over-simplified graphical style of MKWii was a result of trying to maintain 60 FPS with 12 racers on-screen. Then again, F-Zero GX managed 30.

[Kokonoe]

So I've witnessed the beauty of which is Hi-Res texture packs on Dolphin. However, I am unable to locate the Wind Waker HUD texture pack as all the links (megaupload) are dead now.

May someone upload it to mediafire if you have it? Thanks.

[hlhbk]

In general, your Audio backend should be set to XAudio2. Dunno if that will help solve your issues, but your setup is pretty much nearly the same as mine and I'm able to use LLE, get the internal res up to 3x, AA to 4x, and AF to 16x with no major audio issues in Xenoblade.

Tried Xaudio2, same issue. Anyone?????

[Fantastical]

I'm loving playing through Xenoblade on Dolphin. I already got somewhat far into the game when I played it on my Wii, but I decided to start from the beginning with Dolphin. Here are some random screenshots

[Seik]

Woah wait a minute, I didn't knew there was such thing as a MarioKartXNamco. O_O

This is arcade only if I understand well? Because, shit, I'd pay for this!

[Tess3ract]

You can only play them on a Triforce which is a spiffy gamecube.

Or dolphin.

[catabarez]

Is anybody else having problems with Epic Mickey? Pretty much everything that isn't done in game is completely messed up for me.

Hi-res HUD Texture

[bigace33]

Man this thing is amazing. I could barely play Metroid prime on my Gamecube, due to the fact that the graphics were pretty muddy, and I absolutely hate the Gamecube controller. Playing Metroid Prime on Dolphin with super clean graphics, and the Dualshock 3 controller seems almost like a crime. I'm loving this game again. Seriously, Prime looks better than some of the stuff this gen. The game itself is amazing.

How is that even possible?
And dear lord Wind Waker... they really need to make a Zelda game like that again. Screw the people that want "realistic"

Yep definitely a crime. :\

Hi-res HUD Texture

Wow. What are your Dolphin settings and system specs?

[ASTROID2]

zww Hi-res HUD Texture

I love all the different faces Link makes in WW.

[Barrow Roll]

I heard that Metroid Prime Trilogy had issues with Dolphin. Are those fixed? How about New Play Control Metroid Prime 1 and 2?

[Caelus]

Alright.

Whoever has TWW NEEDS to do the DOF hack. Not only does it get rid of the DOF, but shadows and black bars as well, and provides a major boost in performance.

I have a laptop with Intel HD Graphics 2000 and Intel Core i5, now it runs full speed at 1366x768 resolution. Holy Shit!

[Anth0ny]

Wind Waker. The best looking game of all time. Look no further than the screens above. God damn.

Bu- but I like DoF. If it really boost performance, I guess I can take it though. How do?

[Cuban Legend]

Don't worry about it. The DOF doesn't seem to be in effect in those latest screens, besides, why would you actively WANT to remove shadows?

[EvilMario]

I wish people would do some night grabs from Wind Waker. When you're sailing on the ocean, and the moon is rising, with some clouds over head.. so amazing.

If your system sucks, like mine. There's barely a difference.

[Thunder Monkey]

It's such a shame that Nintendo didn't use the Wind Waker engine for Zelda Wii.

They did.

SS used a modified TP engine, which used a modified WW engine, which was based on a very heavily modified version of the MM/OoT engine.

They didn't use the visual styling.

But aside from a few trees lacking in polygons I think they had something pretty there.

[firehawk12]

Hrm, I just downloaded this and I'm a bit confused as to how to configure a 360 controller to work as an emulated wiimote. I'm trying Xenoblade to see how it will play.

[jediyoshi]

Hrm, I just downloaded this and I'm a bit confused as to how to configure a 360 controller to work as an emulated wiimote. I'm trying Xenoblade to see how it will play.

Hit the Wiimote button on the toolbar
Next to Wiimote 1 select Emulated Wiimote and hit Configure
Under Device select XInput/0/Gamepad, may have to hit Refresh for it to show
Under Extension select Classic and hit Configure
Map the buttons as if they were a classic controller, hit OK when done

Back in the Wiimote Config window, you can type a name under profile and then hit save to save it. Not required but it helps.

Really? never played these games. Will I like these metroid games? the first one is over 10 years old? surely that game cant hold up?


Halo came out the same time and that game thanks to atmosphere, the outdoor levels, the interesting mythos and universe all.. made me forget about ever playing metroid.

But as I saw Prometheus recently, it somehow reminded me of an metroid prime commercial i vaguely remember seeing, and I wondered - would prime be worth playing TODAY? I shrugged it off thinking that a graphical stellar game like that, which was a technical marvel a decade ago could not invoke the same powers it once could. watching a hitchcock classic today is still creepy, (can be) but gone are the days when people where afraid to be near birds at the park or take a shower.

[Foffy]

Hey guys, maybe you can help me. I'm trying to play the Galaxy games, and it seems I can't get a means of getting a solid framerate. Are there any particular settings that give it a smooth boost? My CPU's a AMD Phenom II X4 955 3.2 GHz and my GPU's an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580. I've read on the Dolphin wiki pages of people with weaker stats than mine being able to run the game well...I can run Xenoblade just fine, and I'd figure that would be the more demanding game, given the open world and all.

[AmaterasuOkami076]

I apologise for my ignorance, I'm fairly new to this. How does Xenoblade run at 1080p? Are there any major sound issues/glitches/bugs/problems that arise whilst playing like there are in games such as Wind Waker? (Such as the issue recently mentioned of disabling sound to get past a certain part of the game without it crashing) Or is it judged on an individual basis depending on your setup?

I ask because I've seen screenshots from Dolphin and it just looks beautiful. I have my 25 hour game save on my Wii on hold since I'd be more than happy to finally pull the trigger on a gaming PC and start from scratch on Dolphin. Places like Eryth Sea and Satorl Marsh are just asking to be begging to be experienced in HD.

Thanks in advance!

There are occasional sound glitches when playing in HLE (at least for me) during the cutscenes but during gameplay it's all gravy. You also need to patch the game to play at 30fps if it is the PAL version (and on my stock 2500k it maintains mostly 25-30fps, with the occasional slow down in massive battles - if I OC the 2500k, it's smooth).

There is a special build of Dolphin posted some pages back that will run the game even better than that, apparently.

Metroid > Halo. In art, convincing game world, and execution.

[Dmax3901]

Those Project Zero screens look amazing, is it out on Wii already?

Some of my WW screens, thanks for the textures BlackBeetle, gonna use them now :D.

[Attackthebase]

Hot damn with all these screenshots. I need to start working on Dolphin again. I've been having problems with setting everything up, thus I raged quit for a bit.

[Foffy]

Came out today, in fact.

Prime holds up fantastically well, in visuals, level design, etc.

I'm more worried that you haven't played Super Metroid though, that should be done before playing Metroid Prime...that way you won't go into it expecting a "shooter"

[abasm]

Like so many Wii games, Xenoblade was practically made for HD.

Hi-res HUD Texture

Can't seem to get these to work, any tips?

[Ceebs]

So I got myself a new high res monitor...

Wind Waker at 2560X1440 with 4X AA is out of this world. You just do not expect an almost 10 year old game to make your jaw drop.

[oatmeal]

I'm guessing you picked up a Korean panel? Which model did you get.

The Crossover. I was talking about it in the PC thread a page or two back.

[Mistle]

Definitely need to replay WW in HD one of these days..

[DeviousAngel]

Gosh, those Wind Waker screens... ;__;

I would kill for an HD version on WiiU. KILL!!!

[BlackBeetleKing]

Can't seem to get these to work, any tips?

seems only for the old dolphin (like Rev.6257)

[Lime]

Where do I download old revisions of Dolphin? The links on the official site only link to deleted and broken links, e.g. Mediafire or zShare dead ends.

[big_z]

Are there any recommended settings for project zero 2?
