It's ok, but AMD GPUs suffer with their poor OpenGL performance. And OS X itself has GPU overhead vs Windows to start with unless an app can use Metal.Is the Mac version of Dolphin any good? I want to play the GC and Wii versions of Fire Emblem, and HD seems like a pretty good way to do it, but I only have a MacBook Pro (granted, a fairly powerful i7 one).

Cant make my ds4 controller to work. Im using ds4windows and was able to setup the controls through the controller setup but it's not being recognized in game.
Try not using DS4Windows. It will appear under devices as 'DInput/0/Wireless Controller'.
Apple writes their own GPU drivers, they don't use AMD's. Also Dolphin does not have a Metal graphics backend so OpenGL is basically the only real option with Dolphin on macOS.
Didn't fix it. Actually even using the keyboard does not work.
Still some issues, though the Gamecube ver. of Prime 1 had no noticeable issues last time I checked.
I'm an owner of an ASUS STRIX RX 480 8gb and Dolphin is barely able to reach 60 fps meanwhile my old Ati Radeon HD 7870 2gb had no problem doing that. What should I do?
Well, the CPU is the same, I just changed the GPU and the performances dropped down.Check your CPU. Dolphin doesn't really care for GPU until you want higher resolution.
I feel like this post deserves a bump just because this is the weirdest thing I've ever heard. I mean there's literally no reason for Dolphin to affect Diablo3's executable in any way so I'm honestly as curious about this as you. You didn't download anything else fishy that day? Go to any uh.....extra curricular websites?
So the best way is to play Prime 1 & 2 for the GC and the 3 on the Wii, rather than playing Prime Trilogy?
Are you sure you set up the controls for the right console, remember Dolphin is both Wii and Gamecube and has separate controller configs for each machine.
So let's say I want to start playing Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance on my MacBook. I have both an Xbox One and a PS4. Which controller is easy to use? I just have the regular Xbox One controllers, not the ones specifically meant for Windows. I've ember used either of them for gaming.
This.
The top set of configure buttons are for gamecube controllers as in gamecube games. The second set is for wii games.
Do I need to configure a Wii remote, even though there aren't settings within to assign buttons to a classic controller?
Thanks both. Is it possible to make / buy a relatively small PC that would be 4GHz+? I'm not keen on getting a super-massive gaming tower. The smaller the better.

This looks awesome!!

Is it possible to mod a wii mini with the homebrew channel? Specifically for game ripping?
Is there a different if connecting a wii mote our wii mote plus with dolphin?
I have a couple old wii motes (with the plus add on separate) and I was wondering if I should get rid of them on keep them for dolphin.
Is it true thst the Wii motes with plus built in are harder to configure?
New article: Dolphin Progress Report: January 2017
On the controller side, I would love to see WM+ emulated, but I imagine it's a backburner issue since, one, it affects relatively few actually interesting games, two, it doesn't heat up Dolphin devs the way that little misunderstandings of CPU/GPU and complete mysteries do.
Wait, if Motion+ isn't emulated, how can people even play Skyward Sword in Dolphin with some semblance of accuracy??

I think you can play with the real thing, but you can't emulate it to use a mouse or an xbox controller as a remote plus.

Someone elsewhere mentioned buying BlueSoleil might be needed for some dongles. I'm fine with this, or even possibly messing with driver develompent myself, but I want to be sure a dongle is compatible with motion+ controllers and Windows 7 before ordering. That wiibrew list seems a little out of date.Howdy all, I thought this would be a good thread to ask. I know about the list of Bluetooth adapters, but there are so many I don't know where to start. I need a Bluetooth USB adapter that works:
* On Windows 7
* With old Wiimote+ controllers
I'm not necessarily going to use them with Dolphin, though that might be a nice plus. I'm hoping to use them for Wiimote+ development in a game. I figured this thread would have some experts on whether certain dongles / drivers are much more reliable and easy to use than others, though.
How would motion+ emulation even work? You can't exactly play Skyward Sword with a mouse or keyboard.
I'm guessing practical implementation questions are one of the main reasons no one has addressed it.
I'm confident I could make a really cool Steam controller configuration. It works incredibly well with the Mario Galaxy games.
