Hi there!.....I run Luigi's mansion and Zelda 4 Swords with my S3 Prosavage DDR.....the graphics I know that are bad because of my video card....I am going to buy a new one the next month....but can I run Zelda Windwaker with my video card?? :whistling . The graphics are so bad with it? The errors in Luigis Mansion and Zelda 4 Swords don't appeared because of my video card, just because of those games problems.....Thanks! :bouncy:

P.D: I don't care about FPS, just I want to run it....

EDIT: Also I don't care about glinches....

if you don't care about fps. that's OK. if you expect perfect graphics with your new card, that's not. having a better card probably won't help you get further in a game. it will just display 'proper' grahpics. but the game will still crash at a point because of dolphin's limitations.

buying a card just to display a bit more graphics is a waste of money.

it doesn't freeze, it hangs, the game still runs but you can't do anything.

ArgJuli

P.D: LinktheHero: you have screenshots of Zelda WW running with your S3 ProSavage???? did you run many games with it?

It'll work, except the quality of emulation will be piss poor. On a non-PS2.0 card, you'll get each character having a hue for their main colour [Link has a green hue everywhere, the boat has a red one..], the water will be grey too and the sky white.. :[

PS2.0 is the least of his worries.. he'll be lucky to even get that on an S3 card.

@argjuli

make the picture with the key "PrtSc" (Print Screen) on your keyboard at a time of ur choice, afterwards goto mspaint or another image prog. paste the pic with ctrl+v (or some other methods) into the prog and save it as .jpg or .gif file. then, within the reply function on this forum you can attach images to it and so upload your pics....

You left out one detail: you have to have the image hosted on a site outside of emutalk. Then you provide the link to the web address of the image.Erm, since when do you need to host anything outside of emutalk. You just attach the images to the post!

Everytime I've ever added an image to a post it asks for a url to the image. So I've been using my geocities account for images.

On a non-PS2.0 card, you'll get each character having a hue for their main colour [Link has a green hue everywhere, the boat has a red one..], the water will be grey too and the sky white.. :[
Well, technically he should run fine with ps1.1 (which I don't think his card supports that either). The GCN is only 1.1 - enless of course dolphin requires that extra horse power to emulate the shaders.

As for actually playing Wind Waker... good luck. I run it on my geforce 6800 (supports ps3.0) and I still only get about 3-10fps with major glitches. (Don't remember the exact number, it's been a while since I played that one. But it was very slow).

Errr, technically, the GCN isn't 1.1 or anything. It's using a system called Tev (texture environment) that has nothing to do with pixel shaders. Dolphin use pixel shaders to emulate the Tev, but depending of the complexity of the Tev, the game will require pixel shaders 1.1 or 1.4 or more...

Gee dude, you have to use the "manage attachments" button and select your images for there. They'll appear at the end of the post.
