Just wondering, what exactly prevents loading texture pack textures like emulating a disc. For example, if the game says "load navi.gcimg" and there is "navi.png" in the texture pack, why can't it load that instead instead of waiting until the texture is actively being used by dolphin? Instead of stuttering, it could behave like a normal gamecube would when reading the disc (and the gamecube never stuttered).
I actually used a trick with the gamecube in hyrule field once to open the lid for a split second (as to not trigger the open disc screen), close it, run the horse farther, right when the disc is recognized, do it again until I ran off a cliff and got stuck falling over and over again. I would prefer a glitch like that for insufficient load speeds than a large intrusive stutter.
This would really reduce the required RAM on some of these beautiful texture packs out there, so I can get by with 6 GBs of RAM. I shouldn't have to prefetch all of the entire game (from hyrule field to the wart on the shop lady's face) when all I'm doing is entering a single room in Twilight Princess.
PS. The specs in my signature are really outdated, I haven't gone around to fixing it yet. Somewhat fixed, but not very specific since I'm on my laptop right now and can't verify anything.
