Dolphin 3.0 is super old. You need to update if you want to get support here.

I know know. But strangely a some pacific games runs really laggy on the new dolphin 4.0 and higher? I try to optimise my settings. But When i run this game on 3.0 its a much smoother frame-rate, but the graphics are a bit worse.

[color=#000080]Have you tried to lower the graphic settings on newest Dolphin builds as much as possible first? Did you also tried other renderers (D3D, Vulkan...)? I would be really surprised if you can't get similar performances or better on newer builds...

Btw, what is your configuration (CPU, GPU, Memory)?[/color]

Well true i figured its just the my slowish computer. I run a mac so i can only use OpenGL and software renderer. Also what did you mean by lower graphics? i keep V sync off and auto on aspect ratio and so on.. Im not sure what my configuration is? how do i change that or check??

I have a Mac too and I get full speed in games. I'm running MacBook Pro Retina 15' (late 2013) model. Quad-core I7, 16GB RAM and a Geforce 750M GT 2GB.

What's your specs?

You need to update if you want support.
