LOL no!
You can compile Dolphin by yourself, it's not hard, you just need to download the source code and Visual Studio 2013. Then, change the line I linked and compile (there's build instructions available in GitHub repository) => done, no memory cap...

IMO 2GB may be safe limit to leave untouched

Well, you can submit a new PR with this new calculation, it may be merged back into official builds if all active devs agree...

Actually I'll try This will be my first commit in C++ ever... but after that I today managed to write Elasticsearch match script in groovy than this shouldn't be harder
Too bad that IntelliJ PhpStorm doesn't allow to install C++ plugin, and full IntelliJ stack for me is overkill


EDIT:
Done We will see if it will be merged

You can check that in the source code, the limit is hardcoded at line 143 in Source/Core/VideoCommon/HiresTextures.cpp, both in master and stable branch...

I tried to use VS 2013 but could not install on my Windows 7 x64. Would you have some compilation tutorial? Im lost..

You need to install it in order to compile dolphin.
