Wiimms Mario Kart Retro

[smurrell]

so having problems with Wiimms Mario Kart Retro.

Setting Texture Cache to safe fix the Fatal Error blue screen message.

the other problem I have is the track selection is all messed up.
this only happens after a saved game have been created so the 1st run of the game is perfect.

wondering if anyone has solved this issue thanks guys

According to your profile you're still running Dolphin 4.0 which is no longer supported. You need to update to 5.0 or the latest Developement build

I think this was the icache issue?

Edit: "Another welcome surprise is that a bunch of romhacks should run better in Dolphin. Wiimm's Mario Kart Wii More Fun romhacks will load their track selection screen properly! To a degree, at least.

This is very, very lucky to be working at all. Because the hack doesn't clear the icache and instead relies on the PowerPC processor to handle icache eviction and flushing, it was thought to be impossible to emulate on Dolphin without huge performance penalties. But now Dolphin clears the icache on BAT changes. Unfortunately, users will need to return to the main menu between races. If you want this fixed... don't bother reporting it here. While Dolphin will eventually emulate instruction and data cache emulation, both combined will raise requirements for CPU emulation by 14x! For hardcore users and those seeking accuracy, this needs to be emulated, but for everyone else you really don't want a game you like to require accurate cache emulation.

If the romhackers want their games to run in Dolphin in the meantime, we unfortunately must ask them to not rely on the icache/dcache behavior of the PowerPC. In the case of Project M, before their final release they did fix their icache/dcache reliances so it should run properly in Dolphin. But, hey, if you don't want people on Dolphin running your romhacks, you know how to defeat it - for now."

il keep a eye on this to see if things inprove or they change their hack. I am enjoying Newer Super Mario brothers atm so not a huge loss
