TTYD Mario Walking Slow When Dumping Frames? - SPM56 - 10-10-2016
Okay, I'm currently playing Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door.
The game works perfectly fine when playing it normally. It runs at 60FPS without any problems!
However, when I start dumping frames Mario's walk speed decreases while everything else in the game runs fine.
I'm using Dolphin 5.0, I don't have this problem on older versions like 4.0-xxx although, the screen does flicker every 3-5 seconds when dumping frames on an older versions of Dolphin.
Any ideas why this is happening and is there a fix?
Many thanks.

Dumping frames is very performance-heavy on the video thread.
If you want Mario to walk at a normal speed relative to the emulation speed, try disabling dual core. (Note: Rather than making Mario walk faster, this will most likely slow down emulation.)

I've tried that! Mario still walks super slow and yet the game still runs at a normal speed.
