Slow speed Android version - jonas_a_ - 06-29-2019
Hello.
I trying to make dolphin run at correct speed on my Android device.
It runs realy smooth on my phone but it feels like slowmotion.
I have mixed around with the settings but the defult settings is the smoothest.
i have pretty solid 55 fps in the game menys and the speed seams to be normal,
when im in game its 30 - 45 fps and the game goes in slowmotion, its not laggy only slow.
I wonder IF my systep specs are to weak, if it depends on the game or emulator?
i have a stock Android pie phone with 6gb ram and a Heilo P60 octa core 2ghz cpu., the brand is Umidigi F1 Play?
What game runs smooth on your phene?

Phones just aren't strong enough to emulate GameCube and Wii games in general. There's too many bottlenecks, thermal issues, and the hardware is just on the cusp of things.
Another generation or two and some better drivers and we'll see where things are really at. Right now, only extremely lightweight games will be playable on high end devices.

I don't consider both zelda games to be extremely lightweight though.

Wind Waker is definitely lightweight. Twilight Princess in modern builds with the minimap speedhack isn't bad. Skyward Sword is pretty unavoidable with the things it needs though.
The things popular games do tend to be more optimized in general.
