I recommend epicurean to try dolphin version 4.0-7528 instead, as the prior builds gave me a similar problem with Wind Waker (black screen and freezing).
That should be fixed in 4.0-7592, though the error reports I've heard about it say that game does that when launching, so I'm not sure if epicurean's issue is the same.
Yes, it happens with me in the beginning of the game. I don't know what happens when you load a save state, though. Maybe it skips the bad part, but it may eventually give a similar error later. Who knows. Since i don't use saves states i can't reproduce it.
I just tested build 4.0-7592 and i still can't pass through the file selection. Wind Waker NTSC md5 d8e4d45af2032a081a0f446384e9261b .
Really hope they fix it or else i will have to stick with 4.0-7528 for a long time and miss the next improvements on Dolphin.
I am actually playing Skies of Arcadia right now. But i always play a bit of Wind Waker everytime i download a new build to check its performance. If it doesn't run that game well, i shall pass.

My game had no issues whatsoever until reaching the cutscene I mentioned before.

I just tried this and the game was able to continue past that cutscene. Thanks.
Black screen after loading a save in the latest dev build in both D3D and OpenGL. (4.0-7597) Stopped working after 4.0-7528.
I tested build 7620 and the problem persists.
However i tested with other game i have and i didn't notice anything wrong. Probably it just affects wind waker?
When I try to load a save on file selection screen on Wind Waker all i get is black screen.
So i started the game all over again and did a new save just at the beginning of the game. I reseted and tried to load this new save and it worked. Then i closed the emulator and tried the same thing and it worked again.
So, the problem as of now seems to be related to some incompatibility between older saves (up to 7528) that doesn't seem to load well on these newer builds.
BTW, when i do a "save state" on 7528 and try to "load state" on these newer builds, i don't have any problem... the problem happens when i try to load a save via the "memory card emulation" through the file selection screen, just as you would on a real gamecube.
Does the broken save file work in older versions? There should never be any memory card save incompatibilities.

Works perfectly until 7528.
I will gladly test another "old" save if provide. It wasn't broken until i tested these newer builds. I don't think it is broken at all since it still works with older builds.
I started a new game on 7528, did a save on memory card at the begining and loaded it on 7620 without any problem. However, if i load the "broken" save using 7528 and do a new save over the "broken" one at the same place (Windfall Island), it will load on 7528, but not on 7620.
Still, switch to 7520 allowed epicurean to proceed with his game. So, i don't know whats going on.
