[GC] Metroid Prime

[Nithy]

I've got a problem with rev4771. Every time i try to save state or load state, mp freezes while the audio stutters and i have to close the game. I run the game in the Dolphin.exe, safe textures cache, copy EFB to system RAM, Dual-core, idle skipping, Optimize quantizers, JIT recompiler and HLE the IPL are all on. my CPU's Intel Core 2 duo 2.13 GHz. 32-bit. Save and load states worked for me in rev4222.

Trying this game for the first time now. Runs pretty well
But why is everyone talking about safe texture cache and copy EFB to RAM? I didn't use any of these (EFB to texture, though) and haven't had any problems so far (first save room).*shrug*

StripTheSoul, you need those two settings to be able to use the scanner.

[StripTheSoul]

are you talking about that normal scan funtion that you can use from the beginning on?
Cuz that works for me without any problems on EFB to texture...if I put it on RAM it's even worse because the scanned region looks kinda low res.

[Centaur444]

Actually, you just reminded me of something. Most of the game was indeed playable with the scanner with EFB to texture, but later on the X-Ray scanner was not functional and the heat visor had blue and purple colors instead of the normal heat colors.

So I guess in the earlier parts of the game, you can indeed use EFB to texture to help with speed, but in the later parts when you need the X-Ray scanner and perhaps the heat visor, then EFB to RAM is likely needed.

ah, alright. thx
Hm, it's strange that the zoomed area of the scan is low res with EFB to RAM, isn't it? O_o

I have a problem with rev 4771. Everything goes well to the moment where I want to enter the Phendrana Drifts. I take the elevator, go to the corridor, shoot the door at the end... and Dolphin crashes, giving me some some kind of advice (like disabling Dual Core support, which I did, but it didn't helped). Happened three times already. Someone said it is possible to complete the game, my question is: how to prevent Dolphin from crashing at this point of the game? I'm using the OpenGL plugin, other games and applications work fine, so I think that we might exclude the hardware problem.

EDIT: I managed to get through that location using rev 4525, seems that MP likes this one more.

Hi guys! I really need your help.(sorry for my english, i'am from Russia).
The problem is: game stops in first movie, when camera show some ship with orange lines.
Is there any way to skip that movie? Or did i missed something in configuration?
rev 4771. Thank you.
