Super Mario Sunshine running slow - Jao45 - 01-30-2011
On my PC, this game runs kinda slow when PLAYING, but when on the cutscenes, it works nice!
Does anybody know what is the problem?
I am using Dolphin SVN 6923
My PC:
Windows XP
Dual CPU
E220 @2.20GHz
1,99GB of RAM
Here are my Dolphin settings:

Oh BTW, the newer versions of dolphin don't have the "Optimize Quantizers" option do they?

That's a weak cpu by dolphin standards. Also your integrated graphics processor is insufficient for dolphin as well. Setting efb copy to texture instead of to ram might help but it will probably still run poorly.

There isn't anything i can do to speed it up?

Yeah I really can't see your PC emulating any dolphin games at a decent speed I hate to say. Emulation really takes a lot more power than most people think. Luckily the processors just coming out now are powerful enough to handle dolphin and any other game emulator out there to a large degree. You will need a cpu with a decent processor and video card. Keep that in mind if you are buying a pc specifically for emulation.

Just a question:
If I UPGRADE my pc to windows 7 using the windows 7 DVD, my CPU will still have the same power right? It won't be better for running dolphin?
I should upgrade it or buy a new CPU?
RE: Super Mario Sunshine running slow - NaturalViolence - 02-01-2011
Buy a new cpu and a video card. You'll need both.

And I need a good one right? It is intalled inside the cpu or what?
