Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Radiant Dawn for the most part runs fine on my system on Dolphin 5.0 x64 (Stable Version), save for one really annoying hiccup. The game instantly crashes Dolphin when using OpenGL, and on other renderers like Direct3D 11, all the cutscenes look like this:



And can sometimes crash instantly or within a few seconds. This means every Chapter transition and 3D cutscene has to be skipped right away every time or else I have to restart the emulation. I've tried fiddling with the settings for what feels like hours, and I also tried downloading the Dev version for today (Dolphin 5.0-3183) which made it stop crashing on OpenGL, but didn't fix the cutscene problem.
This is really weird, since as far as I can tell I'm the only person encountering this issue, and I can't for the life of me figure out what's causing it. Can anyone help me?

Which is the normal internal FPS of this game?

Today I started to play it and I noticed the FPS in the battlefield (outside battles) may dip to 25-30 while the VPS stays in 60.
So it looks like they were internal slowdowns of this game, but I played it on my Wii long time ago and I don't remember the framerate being so choppy sometimes...

By the way, I have the Overclock feature disabled.

I've started to try and play Radiant Dawn and can't get any further than the file select menu. All starts well, no lag or sound issues and when I press start the file menu comes up... with no files to select. In fact, it's blank. It just shows the little "file select" on top and the Tellius map in the background. Doesn't prompt me to create a file or anything but the music keeps playing just as normal and everything is running at 60fps according to Dolphin. So... I'm not entirely sure if it's freezing or not? I tried waiting it out thinking maybe it's loading but it's literally just a blank menu background with music playing. Been trying to search everywhere for a solution on this, any suggestions?

Have you checked if you have a good game dump?

Can you post your md5 hash to check? You can find it under your game > properties > info.

Sorry I'm a little new to running dolphin, hope this is the right thing

That's it. What region is your game? It didn't check out for NTSC-U afaict and I wasn't able to look up others.

Says the region is for US...

Yeah, I don't think that's correct, try redumping your game.
