After updating to the latest beta version of Dolphin (5.0-19368), most PAL games I've tried don't bring up the Hz selection menu at startup like it normally should. I've tried Super Smash Bros. Melee, Super Mario Sunshine, and Star Fox Adventures. The only one that works is Melee, the other two don't pop up at all (even if I hold down B, as some have suggested). Is there some kind of option I'm missing to properly enable this, or is the latest version of Dolphin just glitched in this regard?
Most PAL games don't allow you to select between 60hz and 50hz

The GameCube remembers whether you selected 50Hz or 60Hz the last time, and only brings up the selection automatically if you've selected 60Hz; if you've selected 50Hz it skips the question completely and just runs at 50Hz. (There's a few games that behave differently, but that's the norm most follow.) If your last selection was 50Hz, you must hold B on game boot in order to bring up the question again. (That is, the B button on the GameCube controller in the first controller port.)
I've just tried 5.0-19804 with Mario Sunshine (PAL) and it seems to behave exactly as I would expect it to. We also haven't knowingly changed anything related to this recently, so it's unclear to me why it would suddenly misbehave for you. (For reference, the selection is stored in the user dir under GC/SRAM.raw, along with some other GC BIOS settings like system language, RTC, and sound output. You can delete this file and let Dolphin regenerate it if you think something is preventing writes to it or something along those lines.) 07-18-2023, 05:36 AM

I actually tried deleting the SRAM file after making this thread and, unless I changed something else and simply don't remember, it does seem to have fixed the issue from what I can tell. |
