Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hello!

My problem is, that the emulator works. Flawlessly, each game I tried. Until - I end Emulation.
Then, each game will afterwards crash dolphin immediately after I try to re-load it.
The game works again, if I delete the entire %documentroot%\dolphin folder.

But thats no option, because my controller mappings will then be gone too.


Windows 8.1, x64

Please help ( tried google )

Is this happening in 4.0.2, or the latest dev builds?

4.0.2, I downloaded it from the official website.

There is a bug with Windows 8.1, Dolphin, and certain sound cards. Try the latest dev build from here: https://dolphin-emu.org/download/

This is also optimus; could be the Intel HD + OpenGL Shader Cache bug.

thanks, ill try that

EDIT: Unfortunately, the same behaviour here: First run works perfectly, afterwards, emulator will crash with the same game.
Mmmmmhhhh ... What files will the emulator change when running a game for the first time?

EDIT: Mmmmmhhh ... what files does the User folder contain when ...

short story short: It was the shaders cache file. Once removed, the file will start again.
thank you, JMC47!
