DSP LLE Issues

[Cawnah]

So I'm sure this has probably been answered before but I have tried searching for a few days and still not found anything to fix my problem. I'm trying to play Wind Waker with the latest version of Dolphin. I was getting stuck at grey screens whenever I walked through doors, so I switched to DSP LLE and the problem was fixed. But now there's a new problem. Whenever I get near an enemy or open a chest, my FPS drops to about 15 and the game get's very choppy. I saw a potential fix for this is to use DSP LLE on Thread, but when I have that selected, the game refuses to even load. Now I'm stuck and can't figure out what to do. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Here are my settings and specs:


Windows 7 64-bit
Intel Core i5 2500k @ 4.5GHz
AMD Radeon 6990
8GB RAM

Dont use LLE Interpreter, use the recompiler, download dolphin http://dolphin-emu.org/download/ 3.5-1485 from here. It has the roms for LLE included, created by the dolphin team

There's really no point in using LLE Interpreter, I've never heard a case in which it fixed an issue that LLE Recompiler had. It's mostly for debug. And uncheck LLE on Thread, it breaks this game occasionally. (Most other games have no issue with it, though.)

Also, with a 6990 you could raise the internal resolution to 4x if you wanted to. v_v; And pretty much every Windows Dolphin user I know says XAudio2 is better than DSound, so feel free to swap that.

And, yeah, do what he said about the Dolphin build you're running. You're probably running 3.5-367 (I can tell from the mix of settings in the screenshots, I know 'em like the back of my hand), which is an old build that everyone keeps getting from the old abandoned site. The current site (which is over a thousand builds ahead already) is over here: http://dolphin-emu.org/download/

I thought the LLE included didnt work for Zelda uCode games? Am I confusing HLE with LLE?

So the newly included LLE can be used with all games? Is there a performance increase or some limitation to it?

LLE works with uCode games. New AX-HLE does not.

The performance may not be as good as an "original" dump

The reverse-engineered DSP ROM always worked for Zelda µcode games. delroth threw AX support in a month or two ago (though I hear it isn't flawless). IIRC, there's a small optimization in it that should perform better on Dolphin's DSP JIT than the standard DSP dump, but nobody's measured it, so it may not necessarily be worthwhile.

The Zelda µcode HLE has always been pretty broken, but delroth's rewrite of the AX/AXWii µcodes' HLE is pretty much flawless.

Sorry for not replying in a couple of days everyone. I was very busy. I think switching to the LLE recompiler fixed it. I could have sworn I had already tried that but I guess not. Thanks a lot for the help, problem is solved
