well... before you start to blame me... I have a Game Cube, and off course a lot of original games (one of them is Mario Sunshine)...

I'm only curious about the game cube emulation and I have one question that I hope someone can answer me...

I downloaded one file .rar that is supossed to be the Mario Sunshine game, but inside the file there are near 16 files but there isnt a .gcm or .iso file...

How can I open the game, in the dolphin emulator?? :huh:

What files are inside the RAR? If they're all RAR files [named in a pattern, part01.rar, part02.rar or r01, r02..] you can extract them all to a folder and use one or the main one [usually .rar] to extract the game. :D

Hope it helps.

Well, I could extract the files :D, thanks for the help :)...
Now the problem I cant open the iso with the emulator... the emulator always stays loading, i mean, booting, any way to fix this? :huh:

Is it .ISO or .GCM? To my knowledge, Dolphin only works properly with .GCM files, so you'll have to switch over the filetype.

In any folder > tools > folder options > view > uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types" > Go to the .ISO file and rename it to .GCM. :D

No, I think it works with any version of 9.0 [Excluding A]. But, the more updated DirectX versions help. :P

Well I read in the forum that you could use a .iso too... anyways, I changed the iso to .gcm before posting the question :) and the problem persists.

In any folder > tools > folder options > etc...
Im a noob but I know how change file extensions :)... lol...

I also tried moving dlls and all, but, the booting window keeps following me :p...
ehmmm let me think... I think that's all I tried at the moment... any suggestions? :)


what version of directx do u have
DirectX 9.0c :)

I don't want to be rude but you're seeing things, if you mean in graphics, they may work better with the fixes they are doing, but the fps i don't think they will be PERFECT until some time.
