Dolphin: how to solve these little issues

[legolas119]

HI
unfortunately due to a crash of my hard disk, I lost my Dolphin configuration so I have done it again from the beginning. I notice these little issues, can you help me please?

1)The legend of zelda Skyward Sword for Wii: I can't start the game because at the beginning I continue to have this message. https://i.postimg.cc/zXnVrMcq/Immagine.png
I'm using an original Wii nunchuk controller and I'm sure that this game worked correctly before my hard disk crash...

2) Tatsunoko vs capcom, Castlevania Judgment: I can play these 2 games only with the joypad (logitech rumblepad 2, that I configured to be used only with gamecube games), not with nunckuk. Why?

thank you!

What version of dolphin are you using? Anything before 5.0 is unsupported and latest beta is highly recommended.

yes sure i have the latest beta release. I solved the issues:
1) It seems that this issue appears only some times...if I reboot the game, the nunchuck is correctly detected immediately...
2) I have to disable the Standard gamecube controller on Port 1 for that games: If I do ti, the nucnhuck is correctly detected.

I have now this really little issue: Dolphin doesn't detected 2 icons for 2 wii game, even if I played them for about 15 minutes:https://i.postimg.cc/Ls6xnnw8/Immagine.png I'm sure that they were available before to reinstall my O.S:ì...so it is strange that now aren't detected...do you know how can I load them?

Last question, if you can: this is my current Dolphin configuration. I followed some youtube guides. Do you think that everything is ok or can I modify anything? This is my pc specs:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 3700X
Motherboard: Gigabyte X570 I AORUS PRO WIFI
RAM: 16 GB Kingston HyperX Predator 3200-16
GPU: RTX 2060 Super
HDD: Seagate ST2000LX001 HDD Interno FireCuda, 2 TB
SDD: Samsung Memorie MZ-76E500 860 EVO SSD

This is my Dolphin config:

They will show up once you create a save file in-game.

ah thank you!

Sorry, I have another question: the .nkit ISO are isos image not so big as ISOS image. But Am I sure that a game is complete even if image is little? In this way I can save space

thanks

It depends on what you mean by "complete" and what settings you use when converting to NKit. Regardless, I would not playing games in the NKit format in Dolphin, as it can lead to various problems. If you want a format with good compression that works perfectly in Dolphin, you can use Dolphin to convert to RVZ.

[legolas119]

complete, I mean: without any cut or compression in video and so on...is the game worst than the iso version?

By that definition, the game is complete. The settings used when converting will determine whether the update partition is intact too.

is the game worst than the iso version?

Yes (as long as the game is in the NKit format – if you convert it back then it will go back to how it originally was). Most notably, Super Paper Mario can't be played at all when it's in the NKit format. Loading times are also affected negatively.

understood.
Well, just for curiosity: it seems that there isn't difference between PAL 50Hz game and USA 60 Hz games: i tried both version on Delphin and I dind't notice differecences...probably for gamecube some games were converted for PAL region in a really good way (i.e: Mario Power Tennis, Metroid prime trilogy, super smash bros brawl). Is it possible? Or is it better in any case USA version?

thanks
