I'm playing a mod of Mario Kart, Wiimms Mario Kart Fun 2020-12. This is my own ripped copy of Mario Kart Wii, with Wiimms Mario Kart Fun patched into it following the instructions here: http://wiki.tockdom.com/wiki/Wiimms_Mario_Kart:_Download_and_Install#How_To_.28English.29

This worked fine for many months. However, recently it's started sporadically crashing. Immediately before starting one of the races (usually the second or third race in a cup), a dialog will pop up with a title of "Question" and a totally empty white body. Eventually, Windows will pop up its own dialog on top, stating that Dolphin.exe is not responding:

Any ideas on how to debug this? C:\Users\Daniel\Documents\Dolphin Emulator\Logs\dolphin.log is 0 bytes - Is there a logging option I need to enable?

Windows 10, 20H2 (build 19042.985)

The error message should work properly if you disable Dual Core. (Or, if the problem was caused by dual core to begin with, this will cause the error message to go away.)

Thank you! I disabled dual core and the error seems to have gone away. At least, I didn't encounter it after playing a few games. I've got 32 cores so I figured enabling dual core would better utilise the hardware Smile

I've played Mario Kart a few more times and disabling Dual Core definitely fixed it. Is it a common issue that games are incompatible with Dual Core mode (and that the error dialogs are just blank)?

Both of these two things are known issues, though I'm not sure exactly how common they are. (Some games are more known to be sensitive to dual core problems than others, and I didn't think Mario Kart was one of them...)
