Problems playing games

ilikemyself · May 23rd, 2009

Hi,
I am new to emuforums and dolphin emulator.
I have downloaded dolphin emulator to my intel iMac running windows vista ultimate.
When at first i tried running the game it said opengl can't render or something like that so i changed to direct9.
When i run the game it says warning your graphic card doesn't support multiple rendering targets and that my graphic card is too old and it will go to vertex processing.
After that, the game loads at 40 to 30 fps and i can see the game starting and letters that say licensed by nintendo (i am trying to play resident evil zero). When the game starts, i see a big white square and i can hear perfectly and see texts, also when i go to the menu or characters helth i can see it well too but when i go to the game, it is just all white.
What can i do?

Also my computer graphic card is intel gm945 256mb and i have 2 gbs ram
Sorry for the bad english

Thank your for replying, so your saying this is because of my graphic card?
I have another pc with 160gbs hd win xp 3ghz processor and 512 mbs of graphic ram it is a nviada card by the way (i don't know the total shared ammout) do you think it will work there?
And just to know is there any way i could play it in my iMac with dolphin or any other emulator?

Intel cards lack of OpenGL support. Dolphin requires OpenGL 2.1, but Intel have worse. Anyways, on this rig you posted, whether your processor is dual core or not?

Theres no real solution for Intel gma users, the onboard openGL support sucks and the emulators directx plugin doesnt work too good. You could try getting a directx plugin from an older version of Dolphin before it got broken.

Yes it is dual core.
So there is no way it will work...?
If there is no way, can the other pc run dolphin?
Thank you again

the only way to run games with intel cards is with directx plugin, this is broken for now...
the old revisions can handle games with directx plugin, here's a link:Dolphin R2343.rar

If you like to run games like SSBB, you need a better graphic card for OpenGL in new revisions.

What the hell is wrong with you? We don't care about your game now, this is a topic about a GC/Wii emu, no a presentation of your user in X game.
