Dolphin on Shield Tablet (K1)

12-07-2017, 07:21 PM #1

Hi,
Sorry for my bad english... I'm from Germany.
I want to play some games like Super Mario Sunshine on my Shield Tablet K1 with Android 7.
The official Android builds from the Dolphin Website aren't compatible with my Shield.
So I downloaded some builds from the forum.
I started Mario Sunshine and nothing happened.
So I used OpenGL render but when the Mario logo should appear it freezes.
So I tried activating Fastmem but then it won't start.
Any Ideas?

Those old builds don't work well, and we can't help you with them. If you want to run Dolphin, I would recommend not using a Shield Tablet K1.

We don't support 32 bit any more. Feel free to use a 3 year old build, but you won't like the result. Especially as it crashes on Android 5 or newer...

Feel free to compile a generic build of dolphin. They support 32 bit, only without any JIT support. So you'll get less than 5 fps.

In the end, I'm sorry, but your tablet is too slow to enjoy dolphin. It has a powerful GPU, but the CPU is too weak, even if we try to support 32 bit.

Ok then I'll play on my PC. Big Grin
