Don't wanna sound rude, but search the forum and you're sure to come up with someone else that has the exact same problem as you. Also keep in mind that it's a "Teaser" so it's just like a beta. Don't expect anything to work like you might hope or think. If you insist on keeping up this particular thread, post your specs so that people can help you out a little easier.

You say all you do is stare at a black screen, can you explain anything more specific? Say, anything happening before it comes up?

I run dolphin.exe
i set up the gcm file path
using all the default plugins
click on windwaker
and it start loading.
shows the file location at botoom left
and just a black screen
and then shows video at 0.0 and core at 100.0
is it just crashing?
wut could be the problem? plz post.

btw ive had problems like this on all my ps2 games using my ps2 emulator if this has any relevance.
:term: (thot it was a cool smiley) teehee

I doubt that the ps2 emulator doing that has any relevance. Do you think it may be a bad rip? Is it a real gc iso, or did you download it and it's a fake? Is it shrunk or normal size? And how big is the size of the iso?

I presume your friend got the gcm to run on his PC!? Also are you're gfx drivers up to date? Have you altered any of the gfx plugin settings in dolphin? Dynarec or Interp?

With the core at 100% for more than 5 secs means its pretty much not going anywhere....

yea he got it to work and all my gfx drivers are up to date. im using the default gfx plugin settings in dolphin.
also when i run chrystal chronicles i get really slow fps and its like core 94.0 video 06.0 and fps is aorund 7. and it crahses after title and cant play intro.
these are the onhly two gcms ive tried so.

This is a very strange situation, when the dolphin window is open, click emulation up the top and click dynarec, then go to the gfx plugins settings, and click advanced, then click on the bar that has either interpret (slowest, most compatible) or compile lists and decode vertex lists, and change it to compile lists and decode vertex lists.

O.K. well i did all that and when i tried loading it never could get to the part where it says core and video at bottom left at all on both crystal chronicles and zelda.

Hmm. Does the play button highlight when you load the game?

wut do u mean? when i go to screen and press the play button it just turns gray cuz its trying to load.

 

[Vegetable]

That's what I meant, if you have to press the play button to start the game, auto load isn't on.

i can also double click but anyway is this a problem?

Haha, good job, I'm surprised I didn't think of that.
For future reference though, you need to add the brackets around quote, the [], and quote (not sure about this) has to be in capital letters.
Example:

Would be done like this, without the ones.
