How to set up best performance for The Last Story??

[Infinite Star]

My PC:
Intel Core i5-3470 CPU 3.20 GHz
8GB Ram
NVDIA Geforce GTX 760
Win 7 64 bits

When open the game in run at 30fps and the sound ok, but when i press enter the menu section it drop to 10 fps and sound scuttering and almost freeze and keep slowing down like that when i press enter to the next section of the game.Basically the game is very lag for me right now. Can anyone help me detail everything set up especially for that game? Appreciate a lot.

Try the latest 5.0-dev build?

It does sound like you are using some really bad setting, like per pixel lightning, or SSAA or i don't know. It shouldn't already lag in the menu with your hardware.

There's one thing you can do for performance, and that is turn off efb to texture only. Since that messes up the clothes, you can either disable it after loading the clothes, or use this build:

And there's some way to enable the same hack in ishiiruka, ask in the ishiiruka thread:

Follow up questions to either of these builds belong in the respective threads!

PS: Somebody should probably move this to the support forum

IDK where the graphics config file is but I'd delete that (after backing it up) and see if Dolphin generates defaults.

>I wouldn't hope for too much either as, IIRC, The Last Story also lags on a real Wii

Your CPU is not fast enough for the last story . Ivy Bridge is 30% slower than Haswell in Dolphin , i5 3570k 4.4GHz is as fast as i3 4130 @ 3.4GHz
My i7 4700MQ @ 3.4GHz (Haswell) barely run the Last Story at full speed ....
