Well finally im at hyrule field. I think is working fine,..Maybe im not in the best part of hyrule field but it's full at 100% fps.

When the Twilight area's are gone you wont get more than 22 FPS on hyrule field such a shame

Why cant I run TP properly? Well, just a few more info, maybe can help:
- My CPU is not overclocked
- I'm testing it on Faron Woods Only, and thats twilight area, can anyone comfirm if thats a slow area?
- No matter what configs I set, I can even turn Antialias and filter on, or put a high res, it makes no difference on this game, not slower, not faster, just seems capped on 17 fps, like a invisible fps limiter holding it on 17 fps...
- Disabled DSP throttle...
plz, guys, help me! thanx!


EDIT: well, 17 fps is with OGL plugin, with DX I have No more than 2 fps....
What build u are using guys? I tried with Omegadox and Orleans..

EDIT2: One more thing, in the intro, with link in epona and etc, it runs fullspeed in OGL and even faster in DX plugin!!! Seems really like something is limitng fps while ingame... maybe the game... could this be some kind of crazy bug, some region incompatibility? im using USA version...

Maybe It is because you are running a Windows 32 bit version and there for using a 32bit dolphin emu. I have read that the 64 bit version is alot faster
I am using 4270 64bit version (CPU PII X4 965BE @3.8 Ghz Vidcard 275gtx Windows 7 ultimate 64bit)

Runo,I was getting 2-3 fps with directx plugin in high resolution without using a projection hack. With projection hack at same place I got like 20 fps.
In newest revisions it's not necesarry to use projection hack,I always get atleast 20 fps.
Are you sure you are using latest revision ?
Make sure you use fullscreen,maybe windowed mode doesnt work for you ?

Is the projection hack the same as the zelda bloom hack?

Im using now the last revision of Unknownforce 4384 x64, seems kinda better to me not sure but meh...
You can download it from here : http://unknownforce.selfip.com/

Another question, does anyone know the diference with the blue mark or the "check" mark with the options in properties? i really cant tell the difference...

[Runo]

Maybe thats the point! Im using the same revision as u two, but the 32 bit version! Well I know they aways sad the 64 bit version was faster, but this is madness! there must be some problem, and when I sad that for this game the settings seemed to make no effect in speed, for worse or for better, it includes the projection hack, but in this case Im gonna say that I not sure if the projection hack is working for me, u know, I cant see any diference with and without the TP bloom hack, same speed, same grafics...

EDIT: Now Im curious, is there anyway for me to run the 64bit version? I mean, I dunno, any, 64 emulation or something, the 64 bit CPUs can't do this can they?

EDIT2: well, I checked it and I wasnt using the same revision as u two at all, but its close, I was using the 4368, gonna test with the 4384 now...

EDIT3: OH MY GOD!!! It's Working!!!!!!! Fullspeed Twilight Area OGL plugin, AND NOW WHEN I CHANGE THE SETTINGS THEY MAKE SOME DIFFERENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im gonna test DX plugin, but Im happy with wut I got, thankyou so much, man I could kiss my monitor right now, and now the bloom hack works, LIFE IS BEAUTYFULL!!!!!!!! Thankyou guys!!!
I just wonder why the Orleans and Omegadox revs are so crappy, maybe something I done just screwed up with the settings files, because the problem was it was not aplyng the settings I checked, it showed up antialias off but it was on, strange, but thanx again I so happy!!! I will try to redownload them later...

EDIT4: DX plugin is even better, I had to limit it because it was running at 80 FPS!!! 80! Can u believe it? Man Im gonna dream with dolphins tonight...

64bit is the way to go and no u cant use 64bit programms with a 32bit OS, you have to upgrade to a 64bit OS (windows 7 ultimate 64)

[Runo]

Well, I wasnt thinking on a traditional way anyaway, I meant some kind of 64bit emulation, like VirtualPC 2007 or something like that, but nevermind, I just got it to work normally at fullspeed in my 32bit OS...

[secondtime]

I tried new rev..but it doesnt have the map yet...(with EFB option in direct3d9)

Btw the emu works very nice..zelda is extremly playable at least in good video cards...

Do you know if there is a way and how much cost...to use real nintendo wii game pad into dolphin? Because i saw...settings about sensors in the dolphin...and i want to know more about the topic.

Well when you get rid of all the twiligh areas you won't get full speed in hyrule field even with my build xD such a shame...

I'm at the Snow place myself and get from 20-25 fps in hyrule. Very much playable. Well, this was also several builds ago, I haven't tested it since like 4360 or something... But I didn't see too many changes that could affect it.. Other than EFB's being updated, but they put in a Disable EFB option, so that adds a bit of speed, cause EFB's are fairly slow from what I hear.

[Runo]

Well, Im glad with this, but wow, why is that build so much faster than the others? and only in this game! No diference on the others! It's kind of a Twilight Princess Optimized Build?
