Description

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Simply playing the game in Dolphin (in-game)
    2.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

In most places, the game runs at about 60-75% speed. I can't seem to really get it above that. This is only-in game--the menus and such are just fine.

Dolphin version with the problem? Other Dolphin version without the
problem?

I've tried this on both versions 4798 and 6092.

32-bit or 64-bit and any other build parameters?

Both 64-bit. I've tried this game on both:

a Desktop PC with a GeForce 9800 GT, and
an Alienware M17x with dual GeForce 260M GTX cards

OS version and versions of tools/libraries used?

Windows 7 64-bit

Please provide any additional information below.

MMU needs to be enabled in order to play this game. Also, the cutscenes won't work because they are .h4m files--you have to either wait until they're over or skip over them (some of which you can't).

Perhaps your CPU is too slow,
but how would we know, you didn't post your CPU info. :/

Ah, sorry about that. Here's what I'm currently using:

Alienware M17x R1

CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Extreme CPU Q9300 @ 2.53GHz
RAM: 4 GB DDR3-1066 RAM
GPU: GeForce 260M GTX x 2 in SLi mode
HDD: 2x300GB in RAID
OS: Windows 7 64-bit

That would totally suck if a quad-core processor couldn't run a game from 2003 properly.

"That would totally suck if a quad-core processor couldn't run a game from 2003 properly."

Remember, you are Emulating a game from 2003.
Also, Dolphin can not fully take advantage of 4 cores.
Currently, and maybe indefinitely, Dolphin will significantly benefit from only 2 cores.

your cpu's clock speed is too slow, try overclocking it

Ah, right. I'll definitely try it. Don't want to be too harsh on it, but do you have any clock speed suggestions?

This game is slow because the MMU emulation. That is expected.
