Blocky Textures - dmeagher101 - 02-10-2011
Hi, I'm new to dolphin, but when ever I play games (I've only got two so far, Wind Waker and Twilight Princess) the textures appear blocky and very pixelated. What should I do to fix this? Also, how would you rate my specs for playing dolphin?
Specs
Mac OS X v10.6.6
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.26 GHz
2 GB RAM @1067 MHz
nVidia Ge Force 9400M w/ 256 MB shared with main memory.

Bad but not absymal. 2.26 GHz is a really low cpu clock rate (by modern standards). And a 9400m is not a very good gpu.

Settings?
Revision?

More blocky than this?

Just to make sure you aren't complaining about the game's native low-res textures

maybe efb scale is set too low?

We won't know until he decides to tell us what we need to know.

No, they're really blocky. Take a look.[attachment=5399][attachment=5400]

That's everything, although now I'm pretty sure its my low-end computer that's causing problems. thanks for all your help!

Looks like a driver issue. MACOSX claims another victim.

I've figured it out. I disabled OpenCL, and that fixed the problem. Thanks for all you're help.
