Help running game (if you have the time)

[bobman]

Ok so i downloaded the latest version of Dolphin today and tryed to play a game (i know it's not on the supported games list, but figured i would ask). The game is "The sims bustin' out", it is a .gcm file, size of 1.28 GB.

Problem is: When i open the .gcm file in dolphin i get these errors in this order:

READ: Invalid address: 7e000004
WRITE: Invalid address: 7e000008
WRITE: Invalid address: 7e000000
WRITE: Invalid address: 7e00000c

DSI exception in lmv.

READ: Invalid address: 36390010
ERROR: Trying to compile at 0. LR=801b1ad0
iCacheJIT: Reading Opcode from fffffffc. Please report

PC:
Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit
Intel Pentium Dual core @3001Mhz
4GB DDR2 (3.25 Useable under 32 bit OS)
896MB XFX GeForce GTX260 (Newest Nvidia Drivers)

I am running dolphin "As Admin" and the .gcm file is on my desktop. I have tryed burning to a disc and get the same errors. if anyone could help that would be great.

Which Dolphin version?
Try a recent build from http://dolphin-emu.org

Probably need to enable MMU speed hack to get the game to work too.

Yay replys :D

Ok DirectX is up-to-date (needed to update for mafia 2, and i just checked now as well). I get the "setup has determined a newer or equi... blah blah blah".

I am using Dolphin V2.0 (i could not find build number). It's the one on the DL page for windows x86, just downloaded it yesterday.

I believe this has something to do with the DSP settings/plugin. When it's set to Dolphin DSP-LLE it works slightly better (shows 2 DSP related errors then continues, but the emulation stops at 18% speed and 0FPS). also i do not have a Wii or GC to dump the files from, so back to square HLE. When it's on Dolphin DSP-HLE, it crashes just like before. Tryed both openGL and dx9 plugin with both DSP settings and it works the same regardless of what plugin is being used (openGL/dx9).

Then the window title (for the emulator screen) is:
2.0: DX(: JIT32 DC | FPS|0 - VPS: 11 - SPEED: 18%

If anyone can make sense of that maybe you can help me out ;)

You are using dolphin 2.0 not latest revision, download lastest revision to get better performance on your games

[bobman]

Thanks for the info (kinda). Maybe you can try again and tell me WHERE i might find a more recent revision and/or how to download and install it.

look in the forums...it says tht blah blah blah builds from whoever rev 6xxx somewhere in the forums youll find posts like this and go into them...first page usually and go to theyre links and download it. make sure you download the correct rev, 34/64bit and the correct set of speed up instructions aka SEE4.1 , SEE4.2, if you dont know this then download cpu-z , google it, open it/install and itll tell you whats supported and what not...gl
