Skyward Sword getting very low FPS - krazzeekane - 06-08-2013

Hello, I'm new to the forums, and could use some help. I have The Legend of Zelda: The Skyward Sword for Wii, and am trying to get it running smoothly on my machine. I load it up, and I'm getting a constant 15-17 FPS at 40%-ish speed, which makes it extremely stuttery. I've seen a good many reports with systems similar to mine that were able to play it with 25-30 for the most part, so I wanted to see if maybe I'm doing something wrong. If anyone knows the best possible settings for getting good FPS. I'm using Dolphin v3.0-410.

My Specs are:
Windows 7 x86
Processor/CPU:Intel Core 2 Duo E8500
Video Card/GPU:AMD Radeon 6770
Memory/RAM:2048 MB Ram
Dolphin Revision Currently Using:3.0-410

Not the greatest, I know, but from what I've read the game should be at least playable for me. My settings are below, if maybe I have something checked wrong somewhere:
[attachment=9345] [attachment=9346] [attachment=9347] [attachment=9348] [attachment=9349]

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I really want to play this game at a reasonable speed, so I'm hoping some genius guru here in the forums can help me out. Thanks in advance Smile

Your CPU is weak for this game . You need to upgrade your CPU to i5 4670k or equivalent CPU or overclock your current CPU (3.6GHz+)

Also the motionplus build is really out of date. This branch should be revived in my opinion.

Dolphin is an open source application, you are more than welcome to provide your input.

If you're talking about "Emulated Motion Plus" it was updated recently
