2nd real wiimote slows down dolphin

erosman211981 · 07-06-2011, 03:40 PM #1

hy there guys, the problem is when i am playing wii sports resort, when i am playing with only one real wiimote the speed is fine, but when i connect the 2nd real wiimote the speed drops down with 15-20 fps making it unplayable with my friends, they are both original wiimotes, Huh

my specs are intel i5-460m turbo boost 2.8ghz, 4gb ram, nvidia 435m 1gb vram on a dell laptop

That's normal for multiplayer .Usually, the speed will drop by half

Does the simple task of connecting a second real Wiimote really heavily slows a game down? This cannot be. Thus, you must be talking about split-screen.

In that case, since things will need to be rendered twice, more work has to be done by the GPU. If your graphics settings are too high for your GPU, then it may become the bottleneck. Have you tried lowering the GFX settings?

yes just the simple task of connecting the second real wiimote slows down dolphin with about 15fps, especialy in wii sport resorts, could this be beacause i have a normal white wiimote and the other one is a black japanese real wiimote one? and it is stupid when i play split screen games to be slow as well what the hack my laptop is not that slow (i5-460m 2.8ghz, gforce 435m 1gb, 4gb of ram) this is clearely a emulator problem

suggestion: ditch the "craptop" and get a powerful tower or just live with it.

its not stupid these aint pc games. it takes alot to emulate wii hardware.

That's strange actually. Have you tried to use a emulated wiimote for the 2nd wiimote instead of using a real one and see if the game slows down again?
