Hello i was wondering if anyone could help me with my problem. This is what happend: I was completing forsaken fortress and just got the sword back and i beat the little mobin guy but when i entered the door it was black screen Sigh...(im bad at sneaking so this took me ages) after finnaly getting up again because i had to do everything over the black screen wasn't here anymore YAY! But it froze right after you see the king of read lions next to you (no time to save) i gave up and went on the forums. the problem is it doesn't freeze at a certain point it just freezes whenever it feels like it,

This isn't the latest build. You'll find latest ones here. You can try that

I guess it isn't a good sign when it immediately has a black screen when i choose my savegame?

That's your problem. Use LLE Recompiler without "LLE on Thread"/"DSP on Dedicated Thread" checked to fix this.


RE: Legend of zelda wind waker black screen freeze - daanvandam - 06-02-2013

I checked the lle recompiler but it is not starting with that option it says it can't load the dps.rom or something.
Im verry sorry im from holland.

Savestates aren't reliable, don't use them.

You're obviously still not using the latest build. Use the "latest development version" from the download link.


RE: Legend of zelda wind waker black screen freeze - LordVador - 06-02-2013

If you use latest builds you'll be able to use LLE (a free DSP is provided).
If you use older builds such as the one you're using here is what you'll have to do


RE: Legend of zelda wind waker black screen freeze - pauldacheez - 06-02-2013

(Oops, seems I've been ninja'd.)

Follow LordVador's advice and use a current development build, then. Those have a free (reverse-engineered) DSP ROM included. (You can preserve all your settings/saves by dragging the User folder from the old build into the new one, replacing the User folder that's already there.)

Or, even better, you can dump your own DSP ROM, which tends to have less issues and doesn't whine at you every time you start a game. You'll need a real Wii to do this. http://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-howto-getting-dsp-dumps-required-for-dsp-lle--23103

RE: Legend of zelda wind waker black screen freeze - daanvandam - 06-02-2013

it is working so far but it's slow as fuk is this normal? i rather play the full 30fps. it was 30fps with DSP HLE


RE: Legend of zelda wind waker black screen freeze - pauldacheez - 06-02-2013

Yeah, it'll be slower with LLE. Not much you can do about that other than check that "LLE on Thread"/"DSP on Dedicated Thread" option under it (which has a chance of causing the original issue again) or overclock your CPU until it runs at full speed (this is the better option).
