For short, PC games need powerful GPU, Dolphin need powerful CPU (specifically, models with higher IPC rates, so, avoid AMD CPUs/APUs at any cost). Newcomers always come here and think that, and we're sick of answering the same question again and again. Your CPU is weak for the GC games you're trying to run (that probably are demanding since they're from EA), and that's the reason you wrongly think GC emulation is more demanding (it doesn't matter if it's a Wii or GC game, some are demanding, some not).Ĭrashisgod Wrote:I can run very demanding computer games like Diablo 3 at maximum settings but I can't run old GC games? Yes, because Dolphin isn't a PC game. Now, try to run any Metroid Prime game or The Last Story/Xenoblade Chronicles from Wii, even the fastest processors available for Dolphin at moment will suffer some kind of slowdown.

Try Wind Waker or TimeSplitters, for example, they'll probably run full speed in your computer and both are GC games. All the gamecube games I mentioned run at 100% at the main screen, but slow down during gameplay.ĭifferent games have different requirements, so, the GC games you're trying to run are more demanding than the Wii games you played (probably lightweight). If you have any ideas not listed in the Performance Guide let me know. But some games cause Dolphin to crash on both versions (Avatar - The Last Airbender). Some games like The Sims 2 Pets doesn't run at all in 4.0 but runs fine but at around 83% in 4.0-1478. Other games had a more significant impact, Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance jumped from an unplayable 40% to 100% without any lag.

The fact that it speeds up simply by using a different version tells me it might be how Dolphin was programmed. Either way I don't see how it could possibly be the demands of the game slowing Dolphin down, my CPU is running at 2% and I have a couple unused GB of RAM while the game is running. Disabling EFB Copies still makes no difference, I guess its just not something the game uses or the functions broken in the Mac version. I can run very demanding computer games like Diablo 3 at maximum settings but I can't run old GC games? I am using 4.0 (the latest stable version for Mac) But just now I downloaded the latest development version, 4.0-1478 and I noticed the game has jumped from running between 63-73% on average to 73-85% on average and Sims Bustin Out jumped from around 40% to around 55% (jumping between 30-80% periodically, bringing it from unplayable to playable with a great deal of patience in my book) (very short testing with the dev version) and this is with the same settings.

I have tried everything in the Performance Guide ( ) I even disabled EFB Copies altogether and everything else to boost speed and the most simple game I have (The Sims 1) still runs at most 70%, the second game in the series The Sims Bustin Out runs around 40%, while The Sims 3 for Wii runs at 100%. Dolphin seems to work perfectly with Wii emulation, they all run at 100%, but for some reason all Gamecube games are significantly slowed down, and despite adjustments to settings the speed is unaffected.

I'd list comp specs but I already did at registration so I'm guessing you can see them.
