Nothing.. I just run it and it was fine. Maybe you have a bad dump.

The game is slow, and that's a fact. It has some errors, specially when you try to came out of your house after put the goats in the barn. It gave me a lot of errors, but it didn't freeze the game

You are on 32bit, right ? Mine is x64 and it is slightly faster.

What are your computer specs?
What version of the dolphin emulator are you using?
Is the dump of twilight princess from the Gamecube good?

This could give us some clues.

my specs are dell inspiron 1520, windows xp home edition (service pack 2) intel core 2 duo @ 1.50 ghz 987 mhz, 1.00 gb ram, nvidia geforce 8400 GS. the version of this emulator is 1.0.0.3. i was thinking my processor may not be fast enough, but how would i go about making this laptop faster? i know it is not the dump part because resident evil booted up but didn't go in game. i read later it ws not compatible with the emulator just yet. it's the strangest error message that i've ever gotten. i paid nearly a thousand dollars for this computer hardly even a year ago. well, i didn't pay for it, someone else did. anyways... the error is strange.

That's right. I'm on 32bits mode, but the game runs. Sometimes gave a message saying something like "Dont Panic, would you like to continue anyway"

Same here.. it was gave a message like that to me sometimes.. Better off report to author about it because I had no problem with Beta 3 but Rev 9 does have its message sometimes.

Well, since it seemed useless and innappropiate to ask this on the SVN discussion thread, I seem to be having trouble with Twilight Princess as well.

Having a:
- Athlon x2 4600+
- 2gb RAM (kingston 800mhz)
- MSI Geforce NX8500gt
- more than enough disk space
- Win XP SP3 32bit

Whenever I run Twilight Princess using the OpenGL video plugin, I get to the "nintendo" screens and then the screen goes black, and the emu stops showing fps (leaves something like 27-30 fps, but again, the game doesn't go any further)

I'm using the x86 version (revisions 13 and 18) and had no problems playing Super Smash Bros Melee (that runs at like 18-25 fps ingame, 18 on just a couple of stages) and Mario Sunshine (with poor fps after getting the 1st shine)

Whenever I use the dx9 plugin with Twilight Princess, I can run it, but when I leave links house (or go inside, for that matter) I can't see the background and fps goes down. I discarded the idea of a bad dump since it seems to be running in dx9, but hell, I don't know xD.

Any help regarding this would be appreciated.

Offtopic: dumb question, but is it possible to use something like VMware to use winxp 64bit on a 32bit OS? (don't think so, but perhaps someone here knows xD)

Yup, Zelda TP really doesn't like the way we do dual core. I don't know why yet.

lol that did it. Thanks a lot, I can see it now xD! It's beatiful =3

Still, it runs @ 10-16 fps on fields and 11-23 fps on Link's house, and 25fps on menus, but I guess that's because of the 32bit. I wonder how much do you get in TP, RockmanForte =3 Should be playable, at least. I guess we still have to wait for a working sound plugin, but it's the first GC emu I've tried, and it rocks

all right, i just downloaded dolphin beta2 63 & beta3. when i open dolphindualcore it says it is not a valid win32 application, and says the same thing with single core and the beta3 emulator. i read you have to have a 32 bit OS. i have no idea what that even means, which is why i'm here. should i redownload it?
