Hello
So first off. Long time fan, been following dolphin since its early pre-stable releases, but never bothered to say anything since I can't really contribute much.
I recently bought a copy of Samurai Warriors 3, being a massive koei fan and all. I wanted to play this game in something that actually allows me to see people in anything other then a blurry mess (Yay wii on HDTV ...), so I dumped my wii over and created a backup of Samurai Warriors 3. When I got to run this game its a terrible mess. The game runs slow as sin, the audio is all over the place, and OpenGL seems to completely disable half the textures in the game (Maps etc).
So first off, any hints on how I can make my copy of Samurai Warriors 3 run faster? I've got it very close with all the available features, but I simply cannot get it to run smooth in game. I suspect this may be one of the F-Zero variety, and be completely impossible to run full speed, simply because of the number of things going on screen. Koei games are pretty famous for causing frame rate drops on the normal machines, let alone with an emulator. But any idea's would be hot.
Also you know. OpenGL disabling textures and stuff is a little concerning.
Specs:
AMD Phenom II x6 1090T Thuban running at 3.9ghz oc
Nvidia EVGA 680 3gb
16gb 1666mhz Ripjaws across 4 sticks
WD Black 1TB HDD
Dolphin 4.0.1
