Megaman Network Transmission

[Vyloe]

Hi, I recently got Dolphin in order to play MNT and it works fine, speed is smooth, cutscenes are staying at 100% speed.

However, when I get to a point where there are either; 1. A lot of enemies(3 Cannons, 2 Mettals) or 2. A couple of NPCs on-screen (Mega and Roll), the sound starts chopping up. It'll go out, then come back in. It wont skip anything, but it's like taking your palms and repeatedly covering your ears while listening to a stereo. I've tried many changes with options and looked at many posts but it seems like they have a different problem than mine.

I have version 3.5-367
Currently my settings:
Config:
-General: Enable Dual Core, Enable Idle Skipping, Frame Limit set to Audio, JIT Recompiler
-DSP(Audio): DSP HLE emulation (People say to try LLE but that just intensifies the problem), DSound
Graphics:
-General: Direct3D11, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260, Resolution 1920x1080, Aspect Ratio: Force 16:9
-Enhancements: Int.Res. 3x Native, Anti-aliasing: None, Anisotropic Filtering: 16x, Scaled EFB Copy, Force Texture Filtering
-Hacks: Skip EFB Access from CPU, Ignore Format Changes

Most of the Graphics options dont do anything to mess with the audio, they just make the game look much better. I hope someone can tell me if they've encountered/fixed this problem. Thank you.

You are using an old version of Dolphin from an unofficial site. Get the latest development version from the official site. https://dolphin-emu.org/download/ Latest as of this writing is 3.5-1699.

The latest dev version has improvements that should improve your audio quality. As long as you can run the game fullspeed, that is.

Here is probably his problem.

@Vyloe: You can't run the game full-speed with your CPU (at stock). That's why you've got stutterings with new AX-HLE. And that's why it's been even worse with LLE. The solution? Try to overclock your CPU

You're probably right...but isn't overclocking risky?

If you have to ask that question, you really need to do some research on your own and read everything you can about your CPU/mobo and overclocking. That way you can make an informed decision and fully understand the risk (if any) involved. Having someone tell you "yes it is okay" or "no it isn't okay" isn't going to be very helpful. You really need to read, learn and understand what needs to be done yourself and then consider if you want to do it or not.
