Random, Jagged Emulator Speed

Khaydri · 08-04-2013, 08:55 PM #1

Alright, so I've made use of Dolphin twice now, one on my laptop, once on my computer before I updated the GPU and RAm, and once now. Previously I was working on an AMD Phenom II X2 3.2 GHz dual core with 4 GB RAM, and with some settings adjustments I was able to play game on my emulators at reasonable speeds. Barring some hiccups they'd run in the 90-100 percentile.

Ever since I upgraded to my Phenom II X4 3.4 GHz Quad COre and 8 GB RAM, I can't get any games for the emulator to work. While loading and at normal screens they run at 100, then no matter what game or settings, drop and flip around jaggedly and randomly during gameplay/cutscenes. I've changed the settings every way I can think of and I've yet to see any difference no matter how they're set, except when I use OpenGL it drops lower than any of the other settings. Can anyone help me?

Did you use the same revision and settings?

Yeah, I've used both the same settings as before, and different sets. I've customized it every way the performance guide on the wiki says that wouldn't run the danger of breaking the game.

But did you use the same revision?

"Revision" was the common term before (months or even years ago Tongue

). Now people tend to use "build" or "version" that's right

What's the difference?

This says: A revision is an incremental numeric assignment indicating changes to an artifact. A version is an incremental numeric assignment indicating changes to a group of artifacts at a specific milestone. In this context, development builds are revisions while stable builds are versions.
