Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

This is probably going to be something stupid, but when I first got my gamecube games onto my computer, they were winrar files. I extracted them, to find another winrar file inside. This one could not be extracted, it would just say that it is empty. Confused, I tried to see if Dolphin would open this odd winrar file. It did, and it played fine. Still completely confused, I didn't care, I had my game, I was happy. Most of my games ended up being like this, with two of them be gcm files. All played fine. However, my Zelda: Wind Waker game has a grey scene issue. I've read how to fix this, but it involves right clicking on the game from the Dolphin menu. However, I cannot seem to get it into the dolphin menu since it is a rar file, not an iso. Not sure if this is common (I would think so, most of my games are like this), but more to the point, I can't seem figure out what to do. Again, the games seem to run fine regardless of if they are a winrar file or a gcm file.

How did you dump your games? Most softwares like cleanrip should give you the option of ripping into various formats or read here on how to dump properly

I have a friend do it. They might not be too tech savvy either and just showing off, but they work. Anyway, I feel like a derp, knew it was something stupid. Apparently you select the folder the game is in, and not the game itself. Feel free to delete this or put resolved on it. I feel stupid, going to go to bed now. Night, and thanks for being there.
