Do your friends get 60 fps normally? If one of them has bad hardware it will effect you too. If you play will 3 people you will need to turn up the buffer, the buffer stacks. Probably your buffer is too low.
If you're using the correct version of Dolphin in this guide (4.0-652) then you will not desync with dual core enabled. If you are indeed using the right version:
It's all good, thanks for the tip.
Tell your friend to update to 64 bit. It's free to upgrade to 64 bit from 32 bit and that will provide some performance increase.It's all good, thanks for the tip.
One of the friends was using 32 bit windows so we went down a version an grabbed a version of dolphin you can use on 32bit for him. His computer couldn't handle the game though so went back up to latest version and now we can play!
Sadly my other friend still makes the game go down to about 45-50 fps but it's playable and fun!
Thank you for the help!
Are you using custom textures via Dolphin (Dolphin Emulator/Load/Textures/RSBEPM/) or via Project M (Custom skins ect). If you're doing the latter, you'll get a different md5 and you'll desync. You can't play online with custom textures unless your opponent has the same ones. Dolphin textures are safe to use but I believe those are only for CSPs/menus ect.
Unfortunately yes.
Where do you feel like it slows down? Specs?
2500k i5 and a 770GTX 2gb, 8gb ram. Well I can assure you it actually slows down, and its randomly. But it doesnt show lower numbers in the VPS FPS or percentage counter on dolphin, I asked in SSBPM on reddit and one guy said thats just how dolphin works and he had a pretty good rig. is there any specific settings when you right click on the ISO and properties that should be set? MMU/VBeam etc etc?
Yeah your build is above average for Dolphin and Brawl (PM) is a lightweight game. Small lag spikes at the beginning of matches and between menus is to be expected due to Dolphin generating the shaders. In the next Dolphin netplay build under development this will be fixed by having all shaders not generated on the first frame.
It has to do with your router. Some routers don't like dolphin opening a port for you via upnp. You can actually use direct ip connecting in 648/652. Instead of using the 8 digit id you drop down to local host in the host window them give them your IP and forwarded tcp port. First try allowing dolphin through your firewall though.
If the lag is only very minor then I don't know what to say. The new dolphin build will be faster when it is released. Make sure you're using the x64 version of dolphin.
Ive had another friend try fixing it for me for like 3 hours. He suspected it was router problems as well, but after going into CMD and like changing settings on my internet and force allowing Ports It still wouldn't work. Firewall is permanently off for me as well.
The format for local host is ip
ort. So you'd do like 192.123.4.567:2626 if using port 2626. There is no difference in lag between localhost and UDP code. The only difference is that UDP code uses a transversal server to keep a port open for routers (most routers) that work with it. The inputs do not go through the server, it just keeps a port open for you. You have to open a TCP port or something in your router settings. I'm not familiar too much with how to do it. Try portforward.comLook at your pad settings. Your down direction is Z-+ which is different than the rest. Redo your down direction.Hey can I get some help with my set up? My problem is with the cstick on my set up. It's defaulting to this area down. Is there any way to make it default to the center? I've unplugged the controller and done resets (XYStart). Is there anything else I can do?
You could have gotten a bad dump. You can verify the md5 checksum of your brawl iso on redump.org. All I did to get mine was use Cleanrip on Wii and dumped it to a usb drive. Simple. If the size isn't over 7gb it's definitely a bad dump.
You shouldn't be "downloading" anything. If you use Cleanrip, it extracts the iso from the game disc itself, then you verify that the checksum of the iso matches the one on redump.org
I used usb loader gx, just cuz its the most common. Maybe where it went wrong is I didn't format my flash drive as wbfs before I got the game off the disc, so I couldn't use wii backup file system program, I had to use some weird wbfs to iso converter. I will try it again when I get the chance. On a sidenote, using a keyboard to play is WEEEEEIIIIIRD. I won't be getting the adapter until the official one is confirmed/deconfirmed to work for pc, as it makes no sense to buy 2.
I would just get cleanrip, very simple to use, didn't have to format anything. Use Wii Backup Manager if you insist on converting wbfs to iso though.Sorry, improper use of the word "download".
Well using WiFi is going to increase probability of packet loss, not to mention you're likely sharing your college Internet with however many other people are using it. Wouldn't know what to do besides contact whoever is in charge of the WiFi. It is definitely your Internet.
This would have been my first assumption, but my good friend brings his laptop over and plays online all the time and raves about how good our internet is... We have our own modem in my dorm so its only being shared between my roommates and I. Is my Wifi card just inferior to his or something?
1) do not talk about torrenting here
Does Windows recognize it? In control panel->devices do you see your game pad? Well actually dolphin is recognizing it's there if the options in the gcpad settings. Have you tried loading my gcpad settings in the faq?
Yeah my computer definitely recognizes it, as the calibration worked. I loaded your gcpad settings but I had to make the Profiles and GCPad folders in the Config folder myself if that means anything. I'm not sure if it actually worked because the settings that show up are still the default settings. The Config folder also already has a file named GCPadNew...should I replace that?
You probably needed administrative access.Hello, I've been having trouble with building the iso. I do not have a mac and am using windows. I think I have all the files in the right place, but it says that it cannot find the projectm\pf folder in the same directory as the builder pack. Here is a screen shot.
I also checked my brawl iso with WinMD5 to make sure it has the same hash as ones that are confirmed to be working. Is there anything I am missing?
Edit: I tried on a different computer and it seems to be working, not sure why it didn't work on this one.
In case you ever want to manually set up, you left click the boxes and input the corresponding button in gcpad settings or right click the boxes to manually select a button. Make sure you turned on a standard controller as well.
