Resolution and other issues

[UnseenK]

Hey, I JUST got Dolphin about two days ago, so I got the official release (RC1 V 2.0) and I have a .gcm of Twilight Princess.

I've been having a lot of issues with setting the graphics. Whenever I try to change the resolution, AA or AF, as soon as I load the game it defaults to 640x480 and the AA and AF get reset. It also locks so I can't even change it, even if I changed it prior to loading the game.

Also, whenever I try to change the controller options, they don't ever save or anything, is that supposed to happen? Should I just try to get a new controller plugin?

I appreciate any help, thanks.

It runs rather smoothly actually, it's just the resolution won't change...

Also, trying to run it in Direct X instead of OpenGL just makes it crash. Whenever I try to change the settings, when I hit apply, then open it again, it resets. All my settings reset every time I try to change something. I think I found out that's the main problem.

Try deleting your .ini files, if it doesn't help, redownload Dolphin. Make sure Dolphin is placed in a folder where it has privilege to change files in it's subfolders (Vista and Win7 may not allow that if it's placed in the program files folder.) This step first btw.

Hah, taking it out of program files fixed it. Would have never have thought of that. Is it possible to make it work properly in program files?

[Alyx]

ofcourse
only you must overtake the folter and subfolder to your own
ist the permision of win 7
right click propertis and then security in germans are called "Erweitert" and at the tab users/owners ? you can change the owner
i am not sure waht you can do in win 7 home edition i have a pro
or the other is you run it as administrator but remember
zelda tp has a performanche problem in huge area Hyrule

and i have some forgoten thats ar nerly the same settings like my first post
