Upgrade from 4.0-9426 to 5.0 worths it?

[sandwich2k]

Hi everybody,

I compiled the developers version a couple the months ago for my linux following the advice of some users.
Is it a big difference between 4.0.-9426 and 5.0?
Does it worth it?

Thanks in advance.

not really, but no reason not to unless you have a bunch of shaders compiled and cached you don't want dolphin stuttering to recompile.

I upgraded from 4.0.94xx to latest 5 dev build, and now im getting instant crash when launch any game, gc or wii.

Happens on dx11 and dx12 backend. Didnt try other.

thank you all

If you're getting crashes could you at least bisect to when it started or make an issue report. IF I was having every game crash for me I'd be letting someone know immediately

We've had reports of this. For now, either use 5.0-72 or earlier, or use OpenGL. https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/9643

This is now fixed in 5.0-86. It was a problem with bounding box.

Yes, oh heck yes. Especially if you have an AMD CPU, like I do. BIG performance boost that makes Wii games playable without throwing errors!
