Hi. I am using dolphin and a brand new WiiMote, but the cursor is never on the screen and when I finally get it there, it is extremely shakey... IDK what to do... For the IR sensor, I'm using 2 TV remotes with the power button taped on, and the IR light is on 'cause I checked with my camera. What can I do?
Also, I have a 2.13 Ghz Dual Core Processor with a Intel Series 4 Expresschip graphics card, and, according to OpenGL Extensions viewer, that CAN run 2.1 OpenGL 100%, and 3.0 73%, but Dolphin still says missing extensions. And when I use Direct X, the speed is usually around 65%. If there is no way to use OpenGL, is there at least any way to increase my speed?
Thanks.
Intel Series 4 Expresschip graphics card seriously?
im afraid that onboard video card does not work with dolphin and there is no speed up
Also, for Dolphin it is recommended to have a dual core processor clocked at 2.8 Ghz - 3.0 Ghz to play most games at acceptable/decent speeds, 2.13 Ghz is just too slow. That is only if you have a processor based on the AMD Phenom II, Core2 architecture. Some games may be playable for less powerful processors, but it's usually games such as Super Smash Bros. Melee, Murumasa: The Demon Blade etc..
When I had my AMD64 x 2 3800+ at 2.0 Ghz, Zelda Windwaker ran at 10 FPS - 12 FPS in outdoor areas and 20 FPS - 25 FPS in most indoor areas. You are going to be severely limited with that cpu and Intel integrated graphics though so don't expect to get any better performance than you are currently getting.
K but OpenGL Viewer says OpenGL 2.1 is compatible with my graphics card, and that is the version Dolphin uses, right? So I should be able to run Dolphin with OpenGL... Also, you haven't answered my jittery cursor question... I can deal with having too low of a CPU as long as it's on OpenGL. Plus, minimum requirements are 2.0 GHz, so I at least meet those. I just want to know how to run OpenGL and how to stabilize my wiimote cursor. Thanks.
you graphic card not enough good your cpu is not enough good too dont think you could run many game some game are really hard in cpu gpu
my phenom 2 x4 3.4 have to be put to 3.8 to run every game nearly perfect my video card is 470 gtx super over clock
change you pc if you wanna play all game full speed or if you dont wanna pay at less oc cpu max you could and buy you a little 9400gt and dont think you get full speed in all game but dont forget if you oc check you temp and make test i dont wanna you scew your pc lol for newbie
I don't want to be able to run all games. Just a few small ones. I would be happy with just Wii Sports, really. I only need someone to tell me how to activate OpenGL because if OpenGL Viewer is correct, I CAN run OpenGL. And I am still having problems with my unstable cursor which everyone is overlooking...

Lol, thanks, tho.
It may say your gpu supports OpenGL 2.0, but the truth is that Intel drivers and IGP's suck and lack extensions that are required to use the OpenGL plugin. The only choices are the DX9 plugin and possibly DX11 if your Intel IGP supports DX11 although performance likely won't be decent given the limitations of the hardware.

Could be a number of issues. Your batteries could be low, you could be too close or too far away (Nintendo says atleast 3ft), your Wiimote could be dodgy or, most likely, what you're doing is just a dodgy implementation.
What do you mean dodgy implementation? I know my batteries are full, 'cause they're brand new. I will try backing up a though. Thanks!! Also, Xtreme2damax, how would I go about using dx3d11? So there is absolutely nothing I can do that would increase speed at all?
A remote control IR led flashes, it's not constantly on... That's why you see the jitter... You just can't use a remote control IR for this. You can only use a remote control to show the concept of the WiiMote and the Sensor Bar, but you can't use it practically. Use the Wii Sensor bar, buy a wireless sensor bar or create your own sensor.
Edit:
The IR LED's flahses faster than your camera can see.
