Hi,

iam playing Zelda twillight princess (gamecube) on the r7436 an it works fine.
I have this game for Wii an i think the texture quality in dolhin is not very good, which specific options improves texture quality?
by the way, the crashed(hang) two times in fullscreen, once after i meet zelda and warped back to ordon(right after the warp) and once while collecting light at hylia sea (i was near the grass and wanted to howl - right side of the sea)
i didnt had rights for posting this into game discussion.
edit: it definitly hang up everything i try to call the shadow bird (howl) after collecting the first lights at hylia sea. (In fullscreen! it works in windows mode..)

zunder

it also hang when i want to listen to a rock (have to howl) and it hang also in windows mode when i have the howl with the other wolf (when pressing A to howl)

@Zunder

I noticed that when I used task manager and ended some processes, then disabled visual themes in Windows, the full screen mode works a hell of a lot better. Just keep in mind, too many peoples' problems are they have too many things running on their computers when emulating games.

You can set anisotropic filtering to 16x but that's it. It's a GC/Wii game with low resolution textures, nothing you can do about that other than remake all of the textures yourself.

@prince, i have only running dolphin in fullscreen 100% speed 60Frames stable. but frame drops still appear around the castle. The crash/hang when i want to howl an press A definitly looks like a bug because in this moment i have still 100% speed and 60 frame.. it just hang, its allways the same picture. I had another "hang" today while making the bodyguard mission to kakariko while focusing some guy on his "horse"..

@natural, ya i feared it.. guess deactivating native maps makes it even worse.
But the textures where looking more .. 3D**.. isnt this called "mapping" or "parallax mapping" that makes better textures?
(no idea how it works - sorry if iam wrong)

That makes no sense. I don't know of any GC/Wii games that use parallax mapping.

the "howl" freeze bug only appear with scaling integral -> it works with fractional

now it also appeared with fractional...

Please find the game thread for TP in the game discussion section of the forum and read it/post there. These issues have been discussed more times than I can count there.
