I downloaded two gcm ( tales of symphonia and mario paper ) (hope i am not doing something against the rules...



But ... there is always a but ... they didn t worked... well they work but so slow... i never reach more than 10 fps... on the prologue video (haven t not the patience to wait ) and of course no sound...

So what i am doing wrong here?

Here's my PC stats :

CPU : Intel p4 2,8 GHZ FSB 800
RAM : 256 Mo PC 3200 DR

And of course directx 9.0c

Any help ?

Don't expect fullspeed, best advise I can give you is to get off your ass and buy a gamecube if you wanna play the games....

[Lanfeust]

oh but i know that...
and i will... in like two months...but i really wanted to play tales of symphonia ASAP....

so i guess .. no advice ?

Has thi game worked with others?

This question has been answered thousands of times...you can't play it at more than 10fps, 10 fps(look what i say) IT'S A LOT. So... if you really want to play tales of symphonia, don't buy a better video card, just buy the gc and the game, it's simple. Or just wait months, nothing more to say. If you see the forum(i don't even expect to use the search button) you will see a post asking the same.

Edit: Oh.. ya, this is even more difficult to emulate than the nintendo 64, don't expect nothing for months, as i said.

Has thi game worked with others?

Ya, it worked, but... with 5-15 fps i presume. The Dolphin Team is doing all they can, we must be thankful to them.

Cheers, Pky

In the beta for 1.03, Paper Mario ranges from 7 - 12 FPS ingame, but it still doesn't go into battle with Lord Crump. It freezes as soon as the curtain goes down.

As hard as the Gamecube is to emulate, F|RES, Ector, Yaz0r, and rest of the coders do a darn good job with it.

The thing ur doing wrong is expecting way way way to much outta this emulator you gotta read up on how the emulator runs dont expect it to run full games the sec its released, This emulator has progressed faster then any emulator ive seen in awhile and thats more then enough for me at this point and time.
