[Wii] Rhythm Heaven Fever

[Rpetey317]

I played the game for an hour or so and it runs smoothly, at a stable 60 fps and without any noticeable input lag or glitches. Up until Packing Pests (Level 4-2), which runs at 20 fps at most and it's completly unplayable. I tweaked the settings for a while and nothing seemed to have any effect. This is the only level so far that has any issues, so it's weird that it so massively laggy.

What version of Dolphin are you on: Stable, Beta, or Dev?

Have you made sure your GPU is up to date and set to high performance mode?

I'm using dolphin version 5.0-13178 and I checked my gpu settings and it all seems in order. I managed to get past that minigame and remix 4 has that same slowdown whenever that minigame loads in. I'm using an .nkit disc image so I'm going to try to restore it to .ISO to see if that fixes it.

To give an update on this: the parts of packing pests in remix 4 also have the same slowdown problem. I also got slowdowns in flockstep (and therefore remix 5) and they seemed related to the amount of birds on screen, so I initially thought it was a problem with my pc but when I checked with the task manager open it was using practically no resources (about a third as much as it consumes while in the menu) so it may not be a problem with my specs. I also restored my .nkit file to an ISO using the NKit app and it had no noticeable effects on performance

I solved it! Changing the texture cache accuracy to fast completly solves the slowdown issues in Packing Pests and Flockstep. It also made other levels that seemed to stutter a bit (Like air rally) run much more smoothly. I haven't tested it thoroughly but it doesn't seem to be causing any issues so far.
