Heh...yeah.. that's the tradeoff sadly.
Quote:sometimes the speed is 100/98% and the FPS decrease to 10... I don't understand why.
Where does this happen?
I'm sure you've noticed that the game runs at 60fps everywhere besides the worldmap, where it runs at 30fps.

Ah. I've passed that a few days ago. Didn't crash for me.
I used to play with the
official 3.0 build where it worked fine.
I have been trying the newer versions lately, but they were working fine for me aswell.
It might be just the specific build that you have for some reason.
It might also have to do with his settings or he might just have a bad dump. A VERY long time ago, i used 7436 aswell for this game, and even though i switched to 7594, it wasn't due to any sort of crashing, so the build should work just fine. My game can still crash, but it usually only happens after extended playing sessions, so i'ts usually no problem at all.
Edit: I just read his settings, and i don't see the problem here. I'm aware that he is now using DX9 and EFB to Texture.
@Ashrea
Do as Garteal suggested and try 3.0 or if you still have trouble, switch to a different revision instead.
Hello, I'm here again! Sorry for the late, I was very busy with the school...
I'm using Dolphin 3.0-371 v64, the last that it is uploaded (
http://www.dolphin-emu.org/download.html ), and even so I have the trouble of the crashes.
Also, strange things happens with the game. As example, the darkness don't exist in it (in temple of Volt and in temple of Shadow, I always have light as if I were in a normal map).
And I have a problem with the... ¿"boxes"?. It's strange, but sometimes I can move them and sometimes I can't... (and yes, I'm using the sorceress ring with the change of throwing darkness)

¿Am I doing something wrong? ¿Or it is another problem with the emulator?
I can't pass the temple with this...
Quote:I'm sure you've noticed that the game runs at 60fps everywhere besides the worldmap, where it runs at 30fps.
Well, in this version (PAL) it's a bit slower (50 instead of 60, and 25 instead of 30 as normal). But yes, I noticed it. This happens me still too, sometimes decreases and after a while it increases again as normal... But what worries me the most is the trouble of boxes...
Thanks for your help in advance.
It would help if I knew what it was supposed to look like.
Uncheck everything in the hacks section of the graphics settings (especially the disable fog option).
Hm... how can I explain it?
In the game there're a part where I have to use an item (Sorceress Ring) to move a few boxes and complete a sort of puzzle. I use the Ring, and the Option of "Mover/Grab" must appears at the right of the screen, but that option doesn't appear or appears sometimes and disappears again, blocking me. I told this to a friend that passed the game in a GC and I discover that it is a problem of the emulator:

happens the same thing that happens to me at the temple... I don't understand how to fix it... :S They said something like "
pressing "1/2 press"modifier causes the character to move slowly.
during this slowed move, approach the box.
that's all."
But I didn't understand it... (I'm feeling so idiot) and don't know more options to solve it...
Once more, thank you.
Hi Ashrea, sorry for the late reply. I was pretty busy and was trying to get further in the game to verify these myself.
Quote:As example, the darkness don't exist in it (in temple of Volt and in temple of Shadow, I always have light as if I were in a normal map
Yeah, the game shouldn't be dark, so what you see is probably how it's supposed to be.
The only place that is dark is in the Temple of Lightning in the areas where lightning strikes.
Quote:In the game there're a part where I have to use an item (Sorceress Ring) to move a few boxes and complete a sort of puzzle.
That should work fine. To verify this, I just reached this Temple yesterday and had no problems at all moving them.
(You have to stand exactly in the middle and face your character to the middle (where the orb is)).
Quote:They said something like "pressing "1/2 press"modifier causes the character to move slowly.

No need to worry about that. It works fine without changing any option.
I hope this helped.
It's ok, Garteal, I also had many things to do, specially during the week (I usually can play just weekends). And I finish solved this. I had to get closer of boxes, I mean, walking not running and then the game recognised that I could move them.
But now... I have a problem worse than that another...
It always, ALWAYS... the game freezes after a battle, after passing a map, after do anything... Definitely, I can't do anything that have as a result a change of scene or something like that:

(my most recent)
http://i43.tinypic.com/2qvunhu.png
(the second save)
http://i41.tinypic.com/vfkvpi.png
(the third save)
Also, suddenly I can't load the game with the intro, because it doesn't recognised the data in this version (3.024) and in the 3.0 (and in the 3.0 I can't load saves from other recent version). In the A slot it recognised a save from another old date (Temple of Shadow, a lot of scenes, sidequest, maps and levels before I'm now) and in the B slot it doesn't appears any date.
I don't understand anything! Last night I was playing and all was correct... I had planned the fight versus Abyssion today and start the second game.
PD: I have a bad hunch... I'm watching me beginning the game again...
Quote:It always, ALWAYS... the game freezes after a battle, after passing a map, after do anything... Definitely, I can't do anything that have as a result a change of scene or something like that
When did this start happening exactly? Does it stay frozen, or does it resume after a certain amount of time?
Quote:Also, suddenly I can't load the game with the intro
Intro? Do you mean the opening movie? Disc B I presume?
Quote:it doesn't recognised the data in this version (3.024) and in the 3.0 (and in the 3.0 I can't load saves from other recent version)
Hmm... that's odd. You are copying them over to the other version right?
I never had issues with save games on older/newer versions (of Dolphin).
Quote:and in the B slot it doesn't appears any date.
To use the B slot, you have to let Dolphin format and create one for you. (I assume you already have).
Did you also copy the B memory card over to your other version? (It should be called something like
MemoryCardB.-region-.raw.
Quote:I had planned the fight versus Abyssion today
Haha, good luck! It's a fun boss
Try him on Mania too in your next playthroughs!
Quote:and start the second game
Sweet, you still
probably have a lot to discover that you missed in the first run.
This game is addicting, and if you like this game, and want to complete it fully, you will probably have to play through it for.. 6-7 times in order to get everything 100%.
Let's see...
It's stay frozen. It is happening to me since this morning (last night I save as normally, too), and if I pause and play the emulation, speed changes but fps are still in 0, and the screen is still frozen too.
Quote:Intro? Do you mean the opening movie? Disc B I presume?
Yes, I'm refering to that, and yes, I use the 2º Disc as well.
Quote:Hmm... that's odd. You are copying them over to the other version right?

Exactly, I'm just putting them in the GC Folder.
Quote:To use the B slot, you have to let Dolphin format and create one for you. (I assume you already have).
Did you also copy the B memory card over to your other version? (It should be called something like MemoryCardB.-region-.raw.
Yes, they're called MemoryCardA.EUR.raw and MemoryCardB.EUR.raw, and I moved them to the folder also. I don't know if I'm doing something bad, but it doesn't justify the appearance of the non-recognised-saves and the old save at the intro...
PD: Mother of God, six times? That remember when I played and got the 70-80% of thing in Tales of the Abyss with three times...
Quote:It is happening to me since this morning
Have you installed anything (programs, etc) that might cause this?
You haven't changed the settings either right?
Could you verify if the freezes only happen with the version you use right now? Or does it also happen with 3.0 or newer versions?
Quote:Yes, I'm refering to that, and yes, I use the 2º Disc as well.
So the intro is just a white screen? Or does it not appear at all?
It should appear.

Can you see the savegames in the game when you copied them over?
Quote:Mother of God, six times? That remember when I played and got the 70-80% of thing in Tales of the Abyss with three times...
Lol yea, if you want to see every event, or collect every item yes. Tales of Symphonia, unlike Tales of the Abyss, uses affection more.
So you could basically build your affection with any character in the game and get special events etc
(something I missed from Abyss...)
After this I'll probably go for a 2nd run on Abyss.
