Failed to compile vertex shader!

[octojay]

I'm getting this about 60% of the way through Paper Mario GCN when entering certain areas:

\Dolphin\memory(53,13): error X3018: invalid subscript 'C4'



Here's the dump:

Any help would be appreciated.

Did you perform a search for vertex shader on the forums? I got around 75 results or so. I recommend it.

To give you a head start, I think it means your graphics card isnt up to snuff for Dolphin. This can happen if perhaps the integrated GPU is selected on the Graphics config or maybe your drivers arent legit/up to date.

I can run any game at max settings and get close to 120fps, so I sort of doubt it's lack of horsepower on my part. I don't have an integrated gpu, two physical cards. The correct card is selected and I keep all of my drivers completely up to date.

Apologies for not doing more searching I guess. I just followed the directions in the error message.

In dolphin? Imposible. In PC games? Perhaps.

Correct. I was merely pointing out that my problem certainly isn't lack of horsepower.

Try something more recent than the build you're using. It's more than 1000 builds old. Latest builds.

Also what ExtremeDude2 meant is that your rig is excellent for PC games but not necessarily for Dolphin. You'll get aware of that if you try to play some demanding games. However Paper Mario isn't really demanding so it shouldn't be the problem here

Thank you. The latest dev release seems not to be throwing me this issue.
