Hi all,
um i was recently playing around with dolphin emu and some of my games
and have come across some issues/questions that i have:
1) I was wondering if the GC bios/IPL would work on dolphin emu, well i found a vidoe that showed it working for andriod and i got mine to work the same,
by working i mean:
-changed "Skip IPL (GC bios)" = True (disable) to False (enable)
(using a text editor on andriod, i use file exploer, to edit the Dolphin.ini file in the dolphin-emu folder)
- put IPL.bin file in GC/Region folder in my case "eur" folder.
-booted up any game and the gc logo showed up, i tryed holding A on bootup to go to the menu,
it works great and sound/speed is perfect no issues here
.
but um, would it be posslbe instead of having to edit the line "skip IPL" using a text editor,
to add an option of "Skip IPL = Checkbox (enable/disable)" in the GUI/settings menu of dolphin?
like how other features were added in? to make enabling/disbaling the IPL menu easier than having to
edit the main dolphin.ini file.
not sure if this would be possble to implement as a fix/additon/feature?
2) im not sure about harry potter POA not workning on dolphin 5.0, but i think that:
-something is borken in 5.0 that prevents the game from working
-the game needs a fix for it to work in 5.0 in genereal, as of 5.0 it has stopped working period, not matter what version of 5.0 you update to, it won't work.
not sure if having a log enabling or such can troubleshoot the issue?
um, would it be possble to use an older dolphin verion say (4.0-xxx) that works for this game specificly
but keep my existing dolphin 5.0 verion?
or will installing and older version of dolphin overwrite my current verion? since it is the same fork,
mmj/r is a diffrent fork, so it have a separate folder.
3) can dolphin run GC homebrew apps like .dol files? the libretroarch core for dolphin says that it supports
fromats of .dol, .wad and such.
dolphin can run wiiware games and the wii system menu fine, but can it run .dol files like supertux or similar?
4) i tryed to used the 4.3 wii menu instead of the4.2 to see if it changed anything, and now i saw that zelda skyward sword on bootup shows the wiimotion plus video, on 4.2 it didn't do this,
even though i removed the 4.3 wad file and added/installed 4.2 back to dolphin, this motionplus video still shows up on bootup of skyward sword, any fix on how to remove/disbale this?
5) i tyred to play super mario galaxy, but it has some issues, one being that the grapgihcs fr mario, the charaters and some stages are white instead of having their correct colors, this happens on all three dolphin verisons that i tryed (dolphin-emu/MMj/MMJr)
same issue any fix?
6) shadow the hegiehog seesm to have a saving to memeory card issue, it can create game data, but when you try to save or load the game up (with a game file created), it won't work and complain that there is no game data in slot A. any fix of this?
7) um, a new feature was added for andriod, "generate new statics identity" in a recent update,
what does this do?
any help is appreated.
