Hi community! First post here!
So my issue is Pandora's Tower always slows down after about 10-20 minutes of playtime, no matter what version of dolphin I'm using. At first I figured this may be because of overheating, but after checking my temps, it never reaches above 50 degrees. As far as specs and performance goes, I am using a Ailenware m15x, with the gtx260m graphics card, 6 gb of ram, and i7 720qm processor. It doesn't run it the best, but runs its smooth for the most part. Before the slowdown, its always 30fps-25fps.
Somethings I tinkered around with.
Restarting the emulator always brings it back up to speed, but the slowdown happens after 5-10 minutes.
Using the frame advance key brings it back up to speed, but quickly falls back down to slow fps until I restart the emulator.
Currently not overclocked, but even when I do the slowdowns always happen around 10-20 minutes in.
Currently using settings that allow for performance, (x1 native resolution, etc)
Any ideas on how I can get the slowdown to stop happening? I understand I don't have the strongest of computers, but the slowdown doesn't seem to be anything close to overheating issues, and the slowdowns don't seem to make sense considering I will be in one area 30fps, come back later when the slow down happens and its now 15fps.
Not the most tech savy speaker, but If anyone can help find a solution to this, would be very grateful!
