[color=#FF0000]Q.Whats faster D3d or Opengl or X64[/color]
update A. as of r4635 D3d and Opengl are both as fast using 0xantilising and 16xanisotrophic.
After a lot of test today I found that Ogl might be a little faster I dont know
what they did but it helped OGL a lot . Runs Mario Kart wii faster
Q.Will There be Quadcore Support?
A.Enable Dual Core and Look at your Task Manger all 4 cores are already
being used at High Power .ATLEST IN WINDOWS 7
With widescreen hack img doesnt look stretched also look at core usage

[color=#FF0000]Q.Why,arent some Wii games affected byAntilising, Anisotrophic filtering[/color]
A.Bc devs havent got there yet. Although Using HighResolution on games like
Naruto Wii version will not produce high resolution textures or the use of antilising or anisotropic filtering
they still hurt your fps if you set them high.Try Using Opengl and the bleach hack to On position on the Advanced settings and ull
get beautifull graphics at at a cost of some ui.Images below show the difference
