FPS Issues

[bolad0]

Hello, I'm a new member on the forum and just started using Dolphin 3.0. I've read some tutorials about configuration and better performance but it seems like nothing really works! I'm trying to emulate The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (NTSC) and I'm getting like 20~30 fps when I'm sure I can get more.
My PC has: Intel Core i3 processor, ATI HD 5870 2gb video board, 4gb DDR3 RAM.
What am I doing wrong? These are the settings I'm using:







Thanks!

Which i3 does you have?

In the ini setting, the game is set to run the game with EFB Copies to RAM.

Right-click on the game in Dolphin, then hit properties.
In the window that pops up, hit edit config, which you can find at the bottom-left of the window.

In the ini file that opens, at the bottom, you should see these three lines:

Code:

EFBAccessEnable = True
EFBToTextureEnable = False
EFBCopyEnable = True

Erase them, save the file, and see if it worked.

Thanks! Now the FPS dont drop anymore, but it doesn't go pass 30. The game is NTSC, so the max is 60. Any idea why that happens?

(Sorry for bad english, not my first language)

No, Wind Waker runs at 30FPS, so you're good.
Not every game runs at 60FPS.
