All my games, my config, and the questions.......

[Klemc]

Hello everybody,
i'm not english, learned Russian to school (early), excuse me for weird "syntax".

lastly i just buy a computer, that is :
Prime z390M-plus
i7-7900F (no igp, no o/c)
32go (2x16) Corsair LPX
1660S (Pny, single fan)
SSD's
Screen : 1080p, later will be 1440p (no 4k)

My gamepads :
Mayflash DolphinBar (last)
Ori BattlePad (GC pad [no rumble])
Ori Fighting Commander (for versus)
+
Ori Edge 301 (PSX pad, second pad when needed)
EasySMX (Xbox pad, unused in Dolphin)


Now i know Ishiiruka doesn't load Wii nkit iso's (FIFO shutting down while active) but loads GC nkit iso's. Is that that an update is needed by Ishiiruka ?

Do i have to use ISO instead (i wait for my SSD to ship, for possibly move (if nkit) or copy (if iso) files), and loose 70go (i have largely that space, not a too big loss in my case), or is there any other advantage to use nkit to play (like remove partitions ....) ?
If not i'll prefer iso's !
Also i know stable realeases (v5 & v777) show error message while indexing games that are in nkit format.
Perhaps only dolphin 11991 (last) didn't shown errors.......



I know there is Wiki for each game Dolphin works with, it's much helply.

There are all the games i have, i linked to textures when available, uptodate links (as 2020-6-5).
If some textures pack you know i didn't found by myself, please tell me.

I've two questions, Muramasa has a new UHD pack, must i use it rather than 2k one ? But my screen will never be 4k ! Now there is new made for Zelda TP in 2020-4, Victor's mod is it the same thing (i was interested in this one, updated is better).

Wii Menu textures !!

---

From taday i start to use Dolphin, i had not a computer before....... i'll come to this thread when necessary !!

[JosJuice]

Yes, the reason Ishiiruka doesn't support Wii NKit is because it lacks an update that was made to Dolphin. And regardless, I advise against using NKit unless you are aware of what disadvantages it brings, which it seems like almost nobody is aware of. Among other things, it makes the emulated loading times longer, breaks netplay/TAS sync, and breaks a few games entirely.

[Klemc]

Now it's easy to take a decision about that  
Thanks to you,
(i'm lucky, all that i converted was temporary, in wait for an SSD, so i'll put ISO on !t).

Now i've patched Luigi mansion's PAL to 60hz it works, asking automatically to process in Progressive mode, cool !

Is it possible to talk about time for v6 or not even this year !?

EDIT: other than that, Ishiiruka is often mentionned preferable when texture packs used, should ever use it when my game comes with a pack of enhanced textures ?

EDIT+ : why i can't make the list of my games with links to "expand "collapse" like in some forums ? I used quote and horizontal rule, nothoing happens.......

[Klemc]

Today i learned to add gecko codes, it's okay =

[Gecko]
#name
****** *****
.......

And i can see "ini" is not anymore empty while game has been launched once, commentary notes are added, also are some settings from "original" ini. Cool.

Textures load is easy to understand (i tried REcvX.... thanks to AmazonLocker i received my SSD today, so ISO only  now and finished for Nkit format).

Like i asked upper, i launched Viewtiful Joe with 4k texture pack, my screen is 1080p (will be 1440p soon) but not 4k, we can see it's not made for it and  it's loading everytime (perhaps it has to downscale) and it doesn'y load while preload/prefetch are enabled (this game).
Will it be good with 2k monitor ? There is also Muramasa, that i have twice, 2k and 4k.......

Now i'm searching GC games having good 16:9 support (from list upper), i have already 60hz Gecko's. One needed Xdelta, Luigi

EDIT= i'm discovering it' not so simple to find codes (MgsTTS, PaperMario........), also not all games will download even if WIIRD has codes, Ishiiruka not at all !!

EDIT : finally, Ishiiruka isn't really directed for my hardware as it is made to support ol'school Dolphin, is that right ?
EDIT= by testing VJ with 4k texture i must say Doldev is the good choice for me.

[Klemc]

I had to add a Dolphin instance to each game, like that i won't mess with settings at all, it's perfect. Also Ishiiruka was "needed" for some mipmapping in one or two texture packs, will it be terrible to not use it ?

I dream to a Dolphin v6 coming soon


EDIT = is that true that ia have to patch the PAL Luigi's Mansion to work in 60hz, is there no 60hz code AR & GK ?? I did it (once, the only game that needs that)

[Klemc]

Salut,

i'm playing now, "So Blonde Back to the island" works well, but i can see "shadow clipping", game is in 3D but looks like cell shading.

OpenGL (tried D3D)
IR 3x (1080p)
Vsync
AA 8x
Anistrop 16x
FXAA


Question is, what setting can fit this PLZ.
RVJPFR
https://www.gametdb.com/Wii/RVJPFR
https://adventuregamers.com/articles/view/18635

EDIT = Progressive Scan fixed it !!!!!!! D3D (half screen in OpenGL)

EDIT 2 = not sure right now if it's ProgScan or DD12 that fixed the gliutch (try later)....
I looked in "Hacks Tab" and decided to adjust for settings that enhance render, seems good.......

EDIT III = i should ask, because i could understand opposite and apply wrong setting. Also i have two games (Captain Morgane and the Golden Turtle) with identical mechanism.

Are the settings like that a good way to have the better and most accurate emulation ?

[Klemc]

While adding nunchuck (optionnal), Wiimote often disconnects. W-o, never.
