Hi there,

I play Mario Kart regularly through Dolphin emulator and I noticed that there are certain points in the game where it lags (sound slows down and FPS drops from 60 to 30-40. It usually happens at the begining of a race or when I am selecting the race (Grand Prix, Time Trials).

I built and installed the latest version of Dolphin, version 5.0-2925. My CPU is a i7-3770K and my graphics card is an Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti. I'm playing at native resolution, my OS is Ubuntu 16.04, and I'm using the proprietary Nvidia drivers version 375.39. I noticed in the wiki that there are a number of comments that mention this affect....

I played around with a bunch of settings but I could not make this affect go away. I notice on several youtube demos that some users do not suffer from this affect. For example, in this video...

There is not a hint of stuttering in this video, he breezes right through the race selection screen. So my question is.... How do I get rid of this affect? Any suggestions? Does anyone else notice this lag and have they solved it? Thanks!

For the menus, the videos are hard on dolphin and require a stronger computer than most scenarios. The beginning of the ravce sounds like shader compilation. It has to pause the game and compile the shaders. Not changing setting and quitting and starting again will result with no lag the second time.

He is experiencing the lag in the video. He is just using an old build (3.5?) that doesn't slow/stop the audio when emulation lags.

Unfortunally in the menus, it happens because the videos running and in the racing it's possible it would be shader compilation + Sounds or music loading. You can avoid the shader compilation though, using the unnoficial dolphin ishiruuka (it will cause some bugs, but it's temporary and really deserve a shot). Big Grin

Dolphin Revision Currently Using: 5.0-xxxx X64 (always the latest) and the latest Ishiiruka for custom textures.

I'm still learning english. Please, be patient with me. And, if i make a mistake, please correct me, i will learn a lot this way!  Big Grin
