Gems aren't showing during the transition between levels: http://i.imgur.com/XWt569h.png

Using 4.0-126, specs in profile.

Seems the gems not showing is still an issue using latest emu version 4.0-9350

Also iv noticed everytime you first load up the game and you use the fire breath it causes lag but then after that its fine, doesnt do that on the console (i checked) so thought id mention it here

these are for my PC. i have tried to play on my laptop where the cpu is the same but lower on ghz and it plays fine so why wont it play on my pc. i dont like the keyboard on my laptop so i cant really play games on it. is there anyway at all i can get more speed out of dolphin on my pc
Thanks in advance for any help at all you can give me

i have tried dolphin version 3.5 and also 5.0

Thanks for the info first.
This game is Highly demanding even on the real gamecube because it was rushed and the game suffered a lot.
A possible solution is set overclock between 250% and 300% on the latest Dolphin master branch.
Warning: this function is highly demanding of CPU and if it make the game slower try turning down the overclock a little bit.
Even with a good PC this game suffers a lot.

Did you tried with any other games? Because this game have lots of problem because of the poor development itself.

Yes hun i have. ive tried heros tail and enter the dragon. ive also tried zelda ocarina of time and majoras mask. ive even tried doing them on both Gamecube roms and Wii roms. The Wii side was actually even slower. it took about 10 - 15 mins just to do the opening cutscreen lol. the most i can get is between 20 - 30 FPS on the gamecube roms
