Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

A GPU benchmark then?

We could use that. IF AND ONLY IF IT'S DONE PROPERLY.

Ok, for the GPU benchmark I´m going to use Dolphin 3.5 stable (I will try to upload the game saves later)

Renamed the thread to something more fitting. For what it's worth, I'm not interested in a GPU benchmark and I'm not interested in using 3.5 with 4.0 just around the corner. You'll have to count me out on this one. Good luck guys.

Before continuing, who (apart from Starscream) want this benchmark after Dolphin 4.0, and who want this benchmark now?

(In things like this I usually get a democratic attitude).

I would prefer waiting for 4.0

I'll just repost what I posted in the benchmark thread earlier today.

Of course 75 and 92 are the extremes, but depending on the position of the boat on its loop around the island, I would get a stable 89ish or a stable 77ish. Meaning the frame rate stayed the same for maybe 5 seconds or more and wasn't the result of a spike.

With the upcoming 4.0 release, it might be nice to make a benchmark that consists of a .dtm file that'll get everybody into the game at the same frame x. Then you could have Dolphin stop itself after y number of frames and log its FPS to a file. When it's done, strip out the data before frame x occurred, and average them all together. Probably just do this from the command line to make it easier.

I don't really know what obstacles would be in the way of that, but off the top of my head:
1) I don't know if running a dtm on multiple computers with different specs and IO speeds would result in the same emulation.
2) I don't think there's a way to launch a recording from the command line.
3) There isn't a command line option that'll stop the emulation after a certain number of frames, or any GUI option for that matter.

Maybe I'm just making things too complicated. Anyway, it's just a little idea I had.

So I hear u liek 4.0?

@ExtremeDude2: That´s what people have said at this moment.

And I was confirming I do too
