Dolphin doesnt work on my system... - Mariostar - 03-30-2009

Hello!

I have the Dolphin SVN 2745 Emulator and the Mario Kart Wii Iso. But when I try to start it theres an error message wich says "cant create open gl renderer". And the Direct x 9 plugin doesnt work too. on this site theres said that the emulator requires a graphic card which provides pixel shader 2.0 (this is the site: http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/ ) And if you look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel_shader You can see unter SiS Mirage 3 there is Pixel shader 2.0. So my pc should run the emulator or not? Please help me. Hope you can understand me, I'm from Germany.

My System:
Intel Dual Core 2.0 ghz
2GB Ram
256mb onboard SiS Mirage 3 Graphics
Windows XP Home 32-Bit

Read the Dolphin Requirements and download everything that's required.

Quote from http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/

System Requirements

* Windows XP or higher, or Linux, or MacOSX.
* Fast CPU with SSE2. Dual core a plus.
* Any reasonable modern GPU, support for pixel shaders 2.0 required.

So I think I have everything which is required.

I said, to DOWNLOAD everything that is required. That means software, not hardware.

READ THE DOLPHIN REQUIREMENTS. They are right there. Doesn't get any easier than that. There are 2 things. Do them both.

somehow the visual studio cant load the Dolphin.sln file. But is that really necessary for my problem?
i have opengl 1.5 so and just saw that 2.1 is required so i can forget the emulator Sad
