[Wii] The Last Story

[LordVador]

Well these games should be set apart IMO. We can't really consider them as "very demanding" since they can't really be considered as "playable". TLS is very demanding AND playable

Quote:You need a Core i5-3570k @ 4.2GHz or more to run this game fine @ LLE

TLS doesn't need LLE backend . TLS don't have audio issue , the whole game works perfectly with HLE
i5 3570k 4.2GHz+ is required for "EFB copies to Ram" and HLE .

I had issues with the Cutscenes, they were very slow while running the dolphin .793 version....
I disable the dual core option and the game ran a little better, but I wasnt satisfied, the cutscenes where still bad.....(EFB to ram didnt work either)
So I switched to the .865 version and enabled EFB copies to Ram....(dual core enabled) and the game works really well....alot better then the previous version...now Im pleased
A big difference for me between the two dolphin versions......

Lol, everything you did in the last build should have made things slower XD

[hansel00]

hey, I just did a test run on my TLS and this is my result:




Graphic-wise: I'm running totally fine, be it cut scene, in lazuli market place or in battle
Sound-wise: Combat seems alright, but the moment I stepped into the city....oh my...totally unbearable lol

My config:
Frame limit by Audio | Limit by FPS
Lock Threads to Cores
DSP LLE | Running LLE on Thread
XAudio 2
DX3D9 | 1080p | 2x Native | 4x SSAA | 16x anisto filter | Scaled EFB Copy
Skip EFB Access CPU
EFB Copies on Ram | Enabled Cache
Disabled Idle Skipping | Enabled Vbeam

Hardware specs on signature

Any advise on where I can improve my tuning on? Thank you

Overclock that CPU to 4.2GHz or higher
Oops... Nevermind , I thought you had i5 3570k

yup, I purposely get a non-k just to refrain myself from overclocking...

Not overclocking with these CPU's is honestly very dumb.
Getting +- 30% performance increases for free is what you're missing.

Also, why the hell are you using LLE? The Last Story works fine with HLE.
You should also toggle the EFB Copies from RAM to Texture to gain some speed.
Disabling idle skipping has no effect on LLE. It should also decrease your performance by a lot, so enable it.

[ExtremeDude2]

Perhaps it is because he is using an Xenoblade HLE patch build and that makes the sound bad in TLS XD, inwitch case he should get an official build.

Didn't know there will be a difference in performance although they are of the same revision. Will try the official build out

Edit: Just tried the latest 878 official build. Works wonder with HLE now. Thanks!

I am fully aware of what I am missing, but I am using a MATX Asus P8Z77-M PRO board and Factal Design chasis (, very worried about overheating issue.

I am fine with both HLE and LLE at the beginning of game play, but HLE sound starts to crack up after about 5 mins into the game, with LLE I was still able to play through the entire tutorial, only problem is shit got serious after reaching lazulis.
