Hello there,
So I got the Dolphin emulator and was wanting to run Tales of Symphonia (Gamecube) with it. There are threads on it but from reading them, they either don't have the information I am looking for, or the thread itself is outdated.
Essentially, the game runs pretty well but there are a few problems:
1.) FPS is fine up until I complete a battle. the FPS goes from 60 to 30 when it shows battle stats. If I go from one part of town to another (when there is a very short loading screen of black) at times the FPS remains at 60, where as other times the loading of the next area drops to 30. (Unless this is a normal occurrence, please let me know if it is)
2.) Ghosting. The visuals look great for the most part, but I have some problems with ghosting as seen in the following image:
3.) Audio. In the game's beautiful introduction video. There are specific parts that ALWAYS have a grinding sound. I have seen a video of somebody on YouTube showing how the game runs "perfectly" on thier laptop, but I hear the grinding at the same parts during the video. Is there any way to fix this grinding?
4.) the music seems to be a little quirky at times. It has been so long since I played the game on my Game cube, but it seems the music is missing some parts.
The following is information about my computer:
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition (3.4GHz/AM3/8BM Cache)
GPU: XFX Nvidia GTS 250 Core Edition (1GB/DDR3)
RAM: 4GB DDR3 RAM (1333 MHz)
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
(let me know if further PC information is required)
I use the PCSX2 Emulator, which with that, it is vital to always use the most up to date version of the emulator. Thought I thought it would be the same with Dolphin, it seems that older versions work better for different games, so the following is information on the version and set-up I have for Dolphin. I have changed various things with the emulator, but did not notice much difference.
The top left corner of the Emulator Window says "Dolphin R6882"
I have heard that with this game, the DSP should be set to 'Dolphin DSP-LLE Plugin. When I try this setting, I get some error messages and the game will be stuck on the Nintendo logo. The 'config.' settings under the LLE is in the following picture.
It is to my understanding that running the emulator in high visual settings requires a very powerful computer. Given the hardware that I have in my setup, should I tone down certian settings? are fine where they are? or do I have enough resources to turn settings up after I properly configure things?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
