Well, I'll start out with my system specs, I went down to bare bones and got literally everything, down to the game case and fan speed. It is as described.

NZXT Guardian 921 RB Gaming Case Black w/ red lights.
Meteor Lights w/ 8 Speed settings along the casing.
Intel Core i3 540 Processor (2x 3.06 GHz/4MB L3 Cache).
Liquid CPU Cooling System [SOCKET-1156] with 120mm Fan.
4GB [2 GB X2] DDR3-1600 memory module
NVIDIA GeForce GT 430 - 1GB
MSI H55M-P33 -- Intel H55 Express Chipset w/ 8ch HD Audio, Dual-Channel DDR3, Gb LAN,
S-ATA, USB 2.0, 1x PCI-E 2.0 x16.
SATA III motherboard
450 watt power supply
1 TB Hard Drive -- 64M cache, 7200 RPM, 6.0 Gb/s

That is literally EVERYTHING, now for the bug issue. I had beaten the game, and as the credits were rolling, I could feel my excitement, remembering back when I played it on my Gamecube, I remember the secret area revealed, and actually playing as the President of Hocotate Freight once you beat it in place of .. well yeah. Anywho, as the credits were rolling, and "He" (Louie?) seemed lost, (I can't spell his damn name. xD) it shows him peeking around the corner of a leaf, and bam...There it was, game freeze during credits.

I don't know what happened, but it destroyed the game for me, I had 100's of artifacts to go, and I was so excited, and this happens. And not only this, but in Windwaker, just as I go in to get the sword off the old man, or go in any house other than granny's house, screen goes black, and stays black while switching to the inside of the house. Zelda, Twilight Princess, howling scene with the other wolf, freezes there also. Game just stops, but the sound and music keeps going. Same for Wind Waker, music keeps going through the black screen. Pikmin 2 crashing, well...The music is playing, and then as it strikes a note and it freezes, it keeps playing that note in a straight "*Beeeeep*" streamed single note.

Can any of you please, PLEASE help me? I really want to keep playing, I've seen youtube video's of others playing these games further than I've reached on the Dolphin Emulator, could it be the ISO's I've downloaded? Will you require the settings I have or is there any settings already prescribed to fix this issue? It was during the credits..I was so close. Sad

I'm not sure I understand. r6000 or r6500? I can't seem to find that setting. I apologize, I'm a bit illiterate in Dolphin since I started only a few days ago ^^;

That is a revision number.

That means I have to get an older version of the program? I'm sorry, I'm a bit computer stupid right now. I shouldn't have had those Budweisers while playing Twilight Princess. <.<;

They are older Dolphin builds where I had no issues with the games you mentioned (except Pikmin, never played that). Try it anyway.

Search here ---> http://www.dolphin-emu.org/download.html Go to the bottom where it says "archive" and search back to those revisions I mentioned, or use the latest build if you're not already.

No, your revision is too new (if that makes sense Tongue)

Alright, thank you both very much, I will try the old revisions :3
Tried the new revisions, no luck. Well, the r6000 is a dead link, takes me to a page with random buttons, but the 6500 link worked. I "Injected" my save states into Pikmin 2, and each time I try and load one, it just says "Dolphin.exe has stopped working" and...I don't have the patience to push through the entire game again on a whim that it "May work" T_T

P.S. Tried the new version and that didn't fix it. It loaded the states but...It still freezes as Louie is looking around the leaf T_T

Do not use savestates, use your normal save.

-Sighs- ... I give up. I've tried everything for Pikmin 2. I wish there was some way to skip the cinematic, or some setting, or something I can put in the folder to skip all cinematic (CG) cutscenes or auto skip ending credits. I've tried it all, nothing seems to work.

On a lighter note, it seems Wind Waker has definately gotten much further since I started using the r6000, and it also loads faster, though it puts my GPU at a 3-5 degree higher difference, that doesn't really bother me, nor the machine at all. I guess I'll be busy with Wind Waker for a while, but I do have a worry.

The worry is, if you have a revision 6000 that works for one game, but the newest doesn't, does that mean Dolphin will never be complete? There will never be a "Final revision" that has all of the kinks worked out?
