I play it every day, it's all I really use Dolphin for right now besides occasional testing.Thank you (and everybody else) for your input. i'm gonna try this right now. Give me your dolphin settings? AND I can't really upgrade cause i gotta throw down 900 to get my car fixed so I'm not too worried about a laptop. Wish my dad would trade tops with me, but like i said I'm not too worried about it. I find this whole thing fun tryna get this to work. Feeling like a haxxor. Again thanks everybody and if I get it running smoothly with sound I will let everyone know. Like I said before it ain't TOO bad according to the GF and that's probably the best that can be done.
Also, 3.5-367's an old build you got from the wrong site. Current builds won't work on that GPU (hell, they don't exactly work properly on mine right now, which is why I'm running an OS X beta), but be aware that that's not the newest build of Dolphin. 3.5-663's the last one that'll work properly for you (and me).

It'll work fine with the default settings.
What's much more annoying about running this game at less than full-speed is that the in-game clock has to slow down with it, so after five hours of play it's only advanced two in-game hours.

I think that made a difference... Not too sure. I dunno I don't think I'm gonna get it any faster then it is, but's it's not horrible. So what I've done to make it bearable...
Cheat Engine 6.2 - Enabled the speedhack to 20. Anything higher made it black screen. Razer Gamebooster Dolphin 3.5-663 (open with gamebooster) and I shrunk the .ISO, so instead of it being a 1.4 gig file, it's only 32 MB. It's still slowish and choppyish, but it's real doable. With the Cheat Engine it'll say 0-2 FPS and 0% speed, but i think it helps making it faster. It's playable I was going to look into overclocking but I don't want to risk damaging my laptop, and I'm sure that this things so old it wouldn't make too big of a difference. (unless it would?) I'm not sure about turbo boosting either, but I'm happy of where it's at. So hopefully that'll help someone with crappy hardware like me to run it. BUT. I would like some opinions on whether or not I should overclock and/or turbo boost it. AND. I haven't tried Dolphin 3.0 or 3.5, just because I don't want to go through the whole beginning again. 05-18-2013, 08:32 AM
Turbo Boost is a feature in newer Intel CPUs, it's not something you do. And you can't really overclock an Atom netbook, there's no chance that the BIOS has options for that. :\

I'm not even sure I even like Animal Crossing, but like I said before I liked trying to get it to work. I'd play Mario Kart or other games, but I'm sure there's very little chance of any other game working if I have problems with Animal Crossing. And Thank you paulda for explaining the technical stuff.
