Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hi,

I was trying to play Super Mario Sunshine and Mario Kart Double Dash for GameCube, but I get some errors about the graphics that I'm not sure how to solve. When my graphics are set to OpenGL I get an error saying "GPU:OGL ERROR: Need GL_ARB_uniform_buffer_object. GpU: DOes your videocard supportOpenGL 3.1?"
If I try with Direct3D it says "Failed o load D3DCompiler_42.dll, update your DX11 runtime, please". On both cases I checked and my PC and VG are compatible and have the softwares.

These are the specs about my PC: MSI FX420 CPU: I5-2410M VGA: AMD Radeon HD6470M/ 1GB GDDR3 RAM: DDRIII 6GB(4GB1 + 2GB1).

Do you think my laptop is powerfull enough to support these games and Dolphin emu? Is this issue related to software and drivers?

I would appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction.

Sincerely,

Make sure you do not select AMD 6470M via Dolphin Configuration , leave it as default : Intel HD
and follow the guide :

You can get good results with 2410m (I've got a laptop with the same CPU). As long as games aren't too much demanding. SMS and Mario Kart should work "decently"

Thanks for the info guys. It helped get my laptop configuration right and run dolphin on Software Renderer , but still getting those error when I try to go with OpenGL or Direct3D.

Any ideas on that?
I'm adding some screenshots of the graphic configuration. Hopefully it will add something.

Have you installed the latest AMD Catalyst?

Install that and see if the problem still occurs.
