Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

i tried to run a gamecube game and it gave me the seemingly common warning about needing 1 gb of contiguous memory and recommending that i turn off my antivirus and then suggesting i try the 64 bit build (if i can)

after that when i try to run gamecube games with any settings all i get is a yellow screen and then when the usual yellow text leaves the screen it goes to a cyan screen. no audio either.

i've tried paper mario ttyd and fire emblem path of radiance and both give me the same exact results, 1 warning, then yellow and cyan screens

specs :

intel pentuim 4 cpu 3.00 (2 cpus)
32 bit windows xp
core speed is 2992.5 mhz
1gb ram
ati mobility radeon 9700 agp graphics card which is updated along with my directx (direct x 9.0c)

im running the 4098 x86 build of dolphin.

i've tried unplugging and shutting down every other program but still no dice, and if it's any help i can run n64 games perfect,

your gfx card supports ogl 2.0, dolphin needs 2.1

is there a version of dolphin that doesn't need 2.1?


if not, how hard or expensive would it be to replace it?

er, 2.0 is good enough for dolphin i belive daco said somewhere... and that error is not linked to opengl problems.

Uuuuhm..... Direct3D plugin... :p
