[Wii] Xenoblade Chronicles

[Loran]

Hello!

I do have a question.

If i'm correctly informed you can play Xenoblade with the classic controller instead of wiimote. But how do I configure this in dolphin? When I start the game and the title screen comes, saying i should press a button, i can only do this, if the wiimote is emulated. But how do i "tell" the game, that i want to use the classic controller instead of the wiimote? And how do i configure the classic controller in the configuration menu? Is it the same configuration as the gamecube controller config?

I haven't played any wii game with dolphin so far.

Sorry for my bad english

Greetings

Loran

That wasn't very helpful Comae; he/she is basically asking how to configure the Classic Controller :p

Anyway, if you have an Emulated Wiimote, enter the screen to configure the Emulated Wiimote. Look in the bottom right-hand side of that screen, click the dropdown box that says Extensions and select Classic Controller from the options. Now hit the Configure button that appears next to Extensions. In the next screen that pops up, you can now configure input for an emulated Classic Controller.

Great. Works fine now. Thanks a lot.

PSA: An audio-related fix that applies to this game was just merged. Go update to 4.0-2386 or newer. https://dolphin-emu.org/download/

amakuni: FYI, between your previous build and the one you're running now, there's been a few rather large changes in how audio's processed and output:
-Latency has been reduced quite a bit on non-OpenAL backends.
-OpenAL is kinda broken, that's a legitimate regression.
-Stuttering sounds different – sound is processed and output in smaller chunks, so the stuttering now has shorter intervals between silence and sound, which sounds arguably worse.
-Lowering the framelimit also lowers the pitch of the audio to make audio samples longer in duration, thus avoiding stuttering. Unfortunately, to lower CPU usage it doesn't do any pitch correction, so it sounds like a bad YouTube Poop.
Also note that the audio framelimit's been removed and that the "Limit by FPS" checkbox is long gone. These kinds of options tend to break more than they fix, yet a ton of users use them anyway because they don't know any better. I'd bet VBeam Speed Hack is next on the chopping block.

Unrelated: I've started playing this game (on real hardware, not in Dolphin), and I can tell I'm gonna waste 40-80 hours of my life on it.

After trying numerous builds, I feel the issue is my hardware since I cannot run the game without significant slowdowns without using the V-Beam speedhack. As you guys have said, the speedhack does decrease the audio quality. I feel my only option is to try the PAL version with the lower FPS, but honestly I think I'll run into the same problem of not being able to run the game optimally without overclock and having those sound issues because of the overclock. My PC was built in 2008, perhaps its time for an upgrade.

Yeah, the hardware's 99% of your issue. I'd suggest an i5-4690K or i7-4790K and an R9 290 or GTX 780 if you have the budget for high-end hardware, though you can easily get away with much less for this game (e.g. any decent Haswell CPU + a GTX 750 or better). Feel free to use my part list as a starting point, or do whatever else you want to do with it: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/Z6P9t6

If you want to complete all side-quests (can be quite tedious and - sometimes - boring) you won't get through under 100 hours

Trust me : 290 tri-x or vapor-x are the only hawaii really good, 600w is still enough, 8gb is enough for gaming, I'll take a samsung 256gb evo, the i7 4770k is cheaper and as good as the 4790k, the rest is fine. Maybe a 290 would be better than a 780 for emulation, amd got a bigger bus so maybe you would increase the resolution more easily.
