[Wii] Endless Ocean 2: Adventures of the Deep

[JADS]

About the game (Wikipedia)

Adventures of the Deep features improved graphics and larger explorable areas than the previous game. Adventures of the Deep allows players to travel to six different diving spots around the globe, including new polar and river locations.The ability to dive with a dolphin as a companion returns from the first game, and players will now also be able to ride them to move quickly through the water. Players can also sell salvaged treasure for money that can be used to buy items to decorate their private reef and aquarium. Potentially dangerous creatures such as sharks and crocodiles will now elicit a warning for players and may even attack them; players will be able to drive them off using a new tranquilizer-like tool called the Pulsar which calms them down. The Pulsar can also be used to heal any creatures the player finds that are unwell. Adventures of the Deep features online cooperative multiplayer that allows players to communicate using the Wii Speak peripheral, which the game will also come bundled with for a short time.As with the first game, players will also be able to take pictures during their dives, which can now be saved to an SD card.

Emulation Status & Speed
What works:
A few hours in, no major issues encountered yet.

What does not work:
On-line obviously doesn't work, for the rest the game is working minus some graphical issues.

Emulation Speed
Full speed at 30FPS but with some minor slowdowns on a Intel I7 860 @ 3.5Ghz. Game runs at 16xFSSA and 16xAF.

Additional Information
Game is also knows as Blue World in the USA. The game seems to have some issues with DoF (Dept of Field). The game needs EBF Copy to Ram to get past the intro. Controls well with both the Wiimote and the Classical Controller.

If you could make a configuration screenshot of dolphin settings or state them clearly out then I will add it to the Official Game thread. Kraids template works but its very bland on really giving out options for others to try out and compare.

Example of a Screenshot with all options together.

Or just state them out like Nosound97 templates shows.


This is a very nice put together thread. Loving the pictures.

I love this game, thanks for making a thread.

Also, would be nice if more people took 1080p videos such as JADS did

I have gotten trough the whole storyline mission of Endless Ocean 2. Eight hours on the clock, time to go and explore. The game runs great but with some really minor issues. There are some transparent textures (A certain statue is white while it should be gold) but nothing major. Haven't encountered a single crash, so the game is fully playable using the Wii Remote or the classical controller on Dolphin. Some more screenshots:

Yep , this game is beautiful , but the music is even better !

When the girl drops her pendant and shark attacks you, there was minor screen lag. Otherwise I didn't notice bugs. On some settings, water can seem a bit distorted (like in Twilight Princess) when you are walking on the surface instead of diving.

my game got stuck after the girl dropped her pendant..
mother whale is coming my way and im supposed to shake the wii remote to dodge but the guy wont move and the game doesnt progress..
anyone encountered the same problem?

[StripTheSoul]

maybe a stupid question: do you play with a real wiimote which you shake at that spot?^^
