new idea about ppl askin if dolphin will work - hansenderek - 08-22-2009
The devs should make a button in dolphin tht will scan their system and determine if dolphin will work and if not then have a little list of reasons why...
what im talking about is an extra program with dolphin or included wateva doesnt matter tht will scan through your system ram/cpu/memory/drivers/everything needed to run dolphin and tell you if its compatable or not..

The OpenGL plugin does something like that already, with the "Can't create opengl renderer... extensions...".
That won't stop irrational newfags to come and complain about it.

well the opengl plugin should say :
"your graphics card is too old to play dolphin, get a new one"
so everyone would understand.
If you tell somebody that something has failed, they most likely dont think its there fault and ask.
