Need help with speeding up Dolphin

[iXThe KaiserXi]

I am trying to play The Legend of Zelda The Wind Waker on Dolphin SVN R 4771. It loads up perfectly but while in game play I am only getting around 10 fps which makes my game very slow where as at the start menu I was getting around 30. And when I pause the game or when I go into a building the fps jumps back up to 30. Also the music seems to jump around as well. If anyone has a solution to this problem, I would greatly appreciate it.

These are my specs
-Processor=AMD Athlon 64 x2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ 2.20 GHz
-RAM=2.00 GB
-Operating system=Windows 7 32-bit
-Video Card=NVIDIA GeForce 9500 GT

Mm...Have you set framelimit off or 30?
Set: Enable EFB copy to: texture.
Using Direct3D9 Plugin?
DSP: Only active Enable HLE Audio.
Frameskiping to 1.
Using DolphinIL.
Also you need a bit more powerful PC. Like 3 GHZ at least to run this game at decent speed.
Mm....Also using the Zelda TP Bloom hack in game properties gives you FPS extra.

Still no help, but maybe your right about needing a more powerful computer. Thanks anyway, I will keep on trying to get it to work.

GeForce 9500GT would surely start slowing down at 1280x1024.
Try anything under that resolution, disabling filters helps.

Did you try FrameSkipping with both plugins?

K8 Athlon cpu's are a little slower mhz by mhz compared to Phenoms and Core 2s, so yes, you need more processing power.
Your cpu does support a 64 bit OS...

Since you have 2 cores, it will really be useful to disable special effects/themes like aero and kill a lot of unneeded processes.


You can still try a couple of things before upgrading anything.

Mm....Sort of...Skipping frames or jumping frames?
Mm...This gives a bit of speed.
It is under Emulation. Then Frameskipping.

where can I get "DolphinIL" and what's the difference with the normal 2.0 version?
I'm using mamarios build 5442

Click on "Config" and select the "JitIL experimental recompiler" to enable JitIL .

latest builds aren't ALWAYS fastest builds, you can try using the older 51xx versions. They're damn fast for me. i suggest 5186SSE3 from spellforce.
