Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hello. I just dropped $3500 on a new rig. I am playing Pokemon Battle Revolution on Dolphin revision 692. It runs at full speed on LLE emulation until I go to battle, where it no longer runs at 100% speed. Instead, during battle, the emulator runs between 75-80% speed. Any idea how to get full speed? Lock Threads to Core, and Dual core speedup are both enabled. If there are any settings that I need to change please let me know. Any help appreciated, thanks

Specs:
Intel Core i7 3930K 6 Core OC 4.2 GHz
32GB DDR3-1600 MHz Quad Channel
Sapphire Radeon HD 7970
Crucial M4 128GB SSD

My settings are in these screenshots. I tried switching from LLE to HLE audio, which only cured the audio stuttering. The framerate was still in the high 70s %age

Why did you create another similar thread? http://forums.dolphin-emu.org/showthread.php?tid=23929
Have you tried what I had suggested in this one?

Sorry. I wish I could delete that old thread. Someone in the thread told me to post on here instead of that other section. I dont want too many threads. I want to get rid of the old one but I dont know how. I tried your suggestion and it made absolutely no difference whatsoever

Right-click the game inside dolphin game list - properties - "Activate Vbeam"

No. I want to get the game to run at 100% speed. How do I make it do that?

It could be possible that this is just one of those games that Dolphin can't get fullspeed in no matter the hardware. Just throwing that out there (note, have not looked at YouTube vids of this game, dunno if others have gotten fullspeed).

Also, how does the game run for you in other revisions of Dolphin, like 3.0 for example.

Lastly, don't worry, I'll close the old thread in Support and leave a link to this thread. If you want to open the other one for whatever, just PM me or some other admin.

So far all my games get full speed besides this one. I dont know why this one wont

Well, every game is different with its demands on hardware. Like I said, some games currently just don't get fullspeed with Dolphin, no way around it (e.g. Call of Duty: Big Red One, or something). Anyway, what about 3.0?

PBR is more demanding than SMG.
This is true.

I have revision 692. Thats version 3 right? Also, think my CPU could get full speed on COD?
