The quote loops for me continually, but I can press A and it skips it. My problem is, under the same settings, sound in the videos arbitrarily decides to play or not. I don't change a thing, it works, then it doesn't, then it does again. hmmm.

I got Iceman build for W7-64.
No special config, some random crashes, but I can play decently.
Only problem, I use the keyboard as pad. The combination target button + up + attack does not work.
It is needed to destroy the statue in chapter one.

I am at final pious battle but game crashes when he is hit the third time.Its the scene where camera goes to that tome-room and player character is changed.Error is 'no support for operand size 1' which some people say solved by disabling 'optimize quantizers' or something but i cant find that option in all 3 builds I have.Also,cutscenes are always 4:3 with vertical bars even though game runs fine at native 16:9 widescreen.

I tried fifo patched build,5775 sse4+OCL and 5786 sse4 builds.All are randomly chosen svn 64bit.Smooth for most part at 720p.Although OGL is smooth too I prefer DX11 to avoid screen corruption.I disable safe texture and cpu to efb option.I dont remember exactly but i think OCL build ran without single crash on dual core without the need to use savestate at poe quote.Savestate trick is necessary and dual core mode is unstable on other two builds .
savestate trick necesary?for what m8?ar eu using revision's from here?

why do u need savestate?it breaks sync of sound streaming and game does not work properly with savestate,u can also save game anywhere.

are u using NTSC?care to share your memory card save for me to check?

I was using old revision,seems like new rev is up,DLing nao. Big Grin I wonder if it will allow me to finish the fight XD.btw I dont have savestate anymore but I do have mem card saved just before pious battle.

EDIT - Tried the latest builds and they dont require savestates but last battle still crashes at the same spot.

Wow this thread has come a long way since it first started, glad too see ED is finally playable Big Grin

I myself am a dolphin noob and still can't get it to work Sad

I've read through this entire thread, post for post, and I'm still not sure what to do as some information may not be relevant any more.

I've downloaded the latest version of dolphin and I have an ED ROM. I've also set my config to some of the screenshots in this thread as best I can although the screenshots were from an older version of dolphin :/

I guess I'm hoping someone can help a noob get this working, alls I have is the rom, latest version of dolphin and a 'most probably out of date' config.

Another thing, when I view the ED ROM in dolphin it has one star and it says it is broken Sad
can somebody tell me a good value for the watermark tightness(fifo thing) for ED? i use rev 6218.

with a value greater then 400 i can't get ingame, it hang at the loading screen and get following errors:

---------------------------
Warning
---------------------------
Fail .\Src\GfxState.cpp 188, stage=3

---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

and:

---------------------------
Warning
---------------------------
Failed to create blend state at .\Src\GfxState.cpp 199

---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

with a value <= 50 i cant even get in the menu.

or am i wrong and watermark tighness is not the fifo patch? little bit confused about that Tongue
I use R6000 32-Bit with no problems, maybe that is something you would want to consider doing yourself.
I'm using revision 6206 and the game works almost perfectly. It repeats the loading quote endlessly but all I have to do is mash a button to move past it. Only issues past that is the inability to use a save state, and sound often missing from cut scenes. The frame rate does drag sometimes, but it usually runs at or near 60FPS most the time.

But these aren't that big of an issue. The cut scenes can be re-watched at any time from the in-game menu itself. So if you miss out on one with sound, just keep replaying it from the options until it does get sound. Save states don't work, at least not for me, but you don't really need them with this game. If I try to save state, it looks like it's working fine, but won't load it later. But the game can already save to the memory card almost anywhere you would need to, such as right before the boss on Peter's level, or as Alex in the mansion between any level. The game does not auto save, but levels are pretty short if you know what to do, and you can save almost anywhere yourself if you do have trouble. I died a few times, but it was never much a hassle.

With the game now working almost perfect, they will likely turn their attention to other matters. I hope they get around to Rogue Ops myself, this is a good game that is still not even playable on Dolphin, at least not for me. I made a thread about it. The game averages half FPS or less, which means it runs permanently in a dreadful slow motion with no way to speed it up to normal to enjoy it. Playing a game in nothing but slow motion is dreadfully boring.
