[GC] The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker

[Pluupy]

Alright, so Wind Waker works perfectly for me in terms of gameplay and graphics. 30FPS and always at 98-100% speed. I started a new game and witnessed the black screen and audio desync from the cutscenes problems. Those, I can deal with because of the patch. But right after I completed the first 'dungeon' (the tower, can't remember the name lol) I have absolutely no sound besides Link's footsteps.

Did I just enter the twilight zone and is there a way to fix this?

Dolphin: Windows x64 r7719
OS: Windows Vista Home Premium x64 SP2
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 840 ~3.2GHz (Quad)
Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series
DirectX Version: DirectX 11
RAM: 4gb

[color=#32CD32]EDIT: Yeah i don't know how this worked but I unticked the "enable dtk music" from DSP and sound started working again perfectly. [/color]

When I start the game, it ask me "Would you like to create a save file for Wind Waker on the Memory Card in Slot A?" but all I can select is No. The left-right button doesn't do anything. If I click No, it says "There is no save file for Wind Waker on the Memory Card in Slot A. It then brings me back to the first question and it continues to loop this way. How do you get past this? Every GC game I play, it says the memory card in slot A is corrupted.

Check the wiki on the main site. I'm too lazy to help someone asking for "best settings" (which depends on whether you're going for performance or accuracy).

Anyone with a GTX 560 having problems with ~10 fps slowdowns when approaching NPC's ingame while using 4x SSAA? Or is that card not good enough to run 4x SSAA at 100%? I don't believe my CPU could be the problem (i5-2500k at 3.3), and I'm using Dolphin 3.0 with the recommended settings from the Dolphin Wind Waker wiki page.

We need screenshots of all your settings. You may have your internal resolution set to high.

You should be maxing this game out, easily. Check my specs out and see why. I run it perfectly. Post your settings.

Here's my settings, obviously I have AA turned off in those screenshots but I'd like it turned on. My internal resolution could very well be the problem, I have it set to Auto (Window Size) since my monitor's resolution is 2048x1152. I'm going to mess around with different internal resolutions right now, but any feedback on my settings to optimize them will be very helpful.

Set EFB copy to texture.

[gsav21]

I've tried both EFB to texture and EFB to RAM, the problem persists through both. The drop is only when approaching NPC's, could that help pinpoint the problem at all?

Edit: Just tried Internal resolution set to 3x with 4x SSAA, and the slowdown is still there.
