New Super Mario Bros. Low FPS
0%
Description
What's the problem?
Since in the graphics plugin the efb copy options were changed "new Super Mario Bros." runs with really low FPS. Before i had stable 60FPS and now in game ~31.
Dolphin version with the problem (as it appears in the title bar, Ex.: "R
4779" or "R 6403M"):
I realized it with R7634 and in R7654 still there.
(optional) Dolphin version that does not have the problem:
Versions before R7629 seem OK.
Operating system and version:
32-bit or 64-bit:
Win 7 SP1 x64
Game ID (as it appears in game properties, Ex.: "GZ2P01" or "RSBE01"):
SMNP01
Build command-line (not on Windows):
Was the ISO a plain dump from disc, compressed and/or scrubbed?
Dumped from Disc and compressed now.
Please provide any additional information below.

This is due to the texcache rewrite merge that doesn't work vey well with NSMB Wii: the game is very slow even using only EFB to texture and furthermore with EFB copy to RAM ticked you don't see anymore the brown platforms.

I don't have slowndown with EFB to ram (but a fast PC : Phenom ii 4ghz)
Disapearing brown platform (confirmed but post 3.0 that was working) is annoying since EFB to RAM solved a glitch stated on the wiki page of NSMBW : "Blue coins will be invisible unless EFB Copies to Ram is enabled. Coins can still be collected despite being invisible. "

To confirm, I'm running a Sandy CPU,and before I could run this game with full everything (EFB>Ram, LLE, etc) and now I can barely run just EFB>Ram. Definete big performance hit and one that can hopefully be recovered.

texcache-rewrite got moved back to a branch.

Ok, that's what I suspected. But shouldn't we still track issues with these branches so issues can be investigated prior to integration into Main? I think we should merge all issues with a particular branch into a single bug for tracking. I already opened one up for new texcache rewrite issues that should should probably be merged into. Maybe these could be a practice moving forward as I assume people will be testing branches as well (they should be at least). Sorry not sure what your guy's plans are for handling all this branch stuff. :)

nope, if anything one issue for branches is enough.
Otherwise we'd need to keep track of bugs in dolphin-qt and shadercache-optimized as well and those two definitely aren't ready, yet.
