Super Mario Galaxy 2 on Dolphin-x64-r7111 - Muffinman - 02-13-2011

OK ok, I know , I know, there are millions of threads regarding the grand star 1 in SMG2. So before any of those who users who like to post "use the search option" in every thread , just calm down and read what I want first.

My SMG2 is working fine on r7111 but I still have this black screen after grand star.

What I understood from the other threads, that the's only solution is to set the DSP to OpenAL , disable music and throttle and then replay the level without using save states in order to pass the grand star.

However, in the latest Dolphin 7100s builds , there is no OpenAL option, I have the OpenAl plugin , but those builds don't have a 'Plugins" tab, I can't see any way to add a plugin there...

So how to add a plugin on this build?

Just use the XAudio2 sound backend in the Audio/DSP config.

^ would that solve the problem? that's it? Would I be able to pass the grand star freeze?

Or use DSP LLE Recompiler.

The grand stars are at the end of each world. They let you travel to the next world. To get past a grand star level without crashing you either have to use lle audio or disable audio completely.

I'm not going to use it until I upgrade to a better cpu (sandy bridge 2500k).

I'm not going to use it until it's faster than HLE Tongue
Or until I start caring about sound anyway...
