[GC] Star Fox Adventures: 0FPS but sound/buttons work fine

[Nooga]

Hello all. Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this, but my ISO of Star Fox Adventures is being a bit temperamental.

It's got the 0FPS/Working sound issue, but it didn't have it before and I haven't been mucking around with the settings. I tried a few things, and disabling dual core worked, but made the game so slow it was pretty much unplayable.

Specs are:
Operating System: Windows 8, x64
Processor/CPU: Intel i7-4510U @ 200GHz 2.60GHz
Video Card/GPU: Intel HD Graphics Family

Dolphin Revision Currently Using: 4.0-8696

As for Dolphin's settings, everything is default except for:
-Audio Backend (XAudio2)
-GCN Slot 1 (GCI Folder)
-Graphics Backend (Direct3D, as OpenGL caused full-on crashes)

None of my other games have this issue, and I find it particularly odd that it's only just started having this problem. Performance-wise, none of the other games have major issues either, other than going to 60-80% occasionally on more demanding scenes.

Another thing I've noticed is that normally I get that yellow text detailing certain graphics-related stuff at the start, but it's not showing up when SFA has this problem.


Thanks in advance for the help.

Make sure your game was dumped correctly. Dolphin can generate an MD5 hash for it (right-click the game from Dolphin's game list -> Properties -> Info tab -> Compute button). Compare that hash with one from Redump.org. If yours don't match theirs, your dump is corrupt and you should try dumping the game again

Had a look, the dump looks fine to me. Is there any other possibility as to what's wrong with it? Settings issue, or otherwise? BTW, it's the PAL version if that helps, being in Australia and all.

Could you post your settings? Screenshots are fine. Additionally, have you updated Dolphin to 4.0-8696 recently? It's possible that some sort of graphical issue was introduced in Dolphin's master branch. What happens when you try a later revision?
