[Wii] The Last Story

[makotech222]

Is there any way to remove the post processing in this game? I hate the depth of field blur and some of the bloom.

P.S. haven't played this in a few months, and its nice that it no longer crashes randomly!

Can anyone explain me why my 4 CPU's are not beign used at 100%, I understand that this game is very CPU demanding, but why is not using the full power of the CPU's??

Dolphin is a dual core application, it dedicates two major threads to do most of its processing. It can dedicate a third major thread to process audio if you use LLE audio and enable LLE on Thread, but that's usually if you need the game to have perfect sound. 50% CPU usage means Dolphin is using your quad core system the best it can. It's also been explained why using any more cores would be inefficient (google around if you're curious) or better yet, read the main site's FAQ answer.

But you can actually see in the captures that is using the 4 cores, so it makes no sense.
I can not get more performance without having to overclock? (I don't really see the point on overclocking if it isn't usin the CPU's at full speed)

Check "Lock Threads to Cores" (Config/General)

[Shonumi]

The reason it looks that way is due to the fact that the two threads Dolphin uses often rapidly jump between cores. This is generally controlled by your OS, but the option LordVador suggested forces Dolphin to stick to the cores. With Lock Threads to Cores, you should see only two cores with large amounts of activity.

hey guys, just joined the community. Am wondering if TLS demands a lot more resources as compared to Xenoblade? I don't mind lowering graphical spec, but I am very concern about sound emulation.

[DefenderX]

Yep, TLS is much more demanding than Xenoblade. I'd even say, that The Last Story is the most demanding Wii game

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

[ExtremeDude2]

Not as demanding as ones that need to use interpreter

[DefenderX]

Yeah, but there are only a few games (e.g. CoD The Big Red One)
