Visual Plugin Problems - MaxyDawg - 04-04-2009

The program keeps telling me that it has problems with OpenGL, and that it can't find some components. This happens every time I try to start LoZ:Wind Waker. XP Home SP3, Intel Celeron 2.4GHz, 768MB RAM, GeForce 6200. Trying to use DS2Key for the controls, which goes through the keyboard.

My log file is in the archive. I just updated DirectX after the problem happened. Using the latest version of the emulator, downloaded today. What's wrong?

Have you updated your DirectX9? Also with such specs you won't be able to run game at full speed

And I kinda did expect some lag...

I went ot the requirements thread, looked over it, updated a bunch of stuff again, and tried to reproduce the error. I succeeded Sad

Here are the screens:

to fix the open gl renderer problem you need to do one of three things. It's always different.

1. Try enabling dual core. For some reason this can fix it.
2. Go to the nVIDIA control panel and disable limit opengl extensions
3. Uninstall your graphic drivers then reinstall.

Dual Core seems to fix it. But, I don't see anything about OpenGL in nVidia's Control Panel. Thnx!

I don't think Geforce 6 series are Opengl 2.0 compatible ! I'm not sure , but that might be a clue !


RE: Visual Plugin Problems - cmccmc - 04-08-2009

I have a Geforce 6100 and it works fine


RE: Visual Plugin Problems - abfab126 - 04-08-2009

OK so i've made my searches and I was right Geforce 6200 is only Open GL 1.5 and dolphin needs Open GL2.0 at least !

Change your Graphic Card !

Maybe with a program like Rivatuner you can force the version of OpenGL but I'm not sure !


RE: Visual Plugin Problems - cmccmc - 04-08-2009

thats not true I have a 6200 on my other computer and it's opengl 2.0 compatible.
also he just said it was working
with my fix of course Smile
