Description
- Game Name and ID: Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (GZ2E01)
2) What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
R- On Upper Zora River (Twilight) after getting the Vessel of Light, using the calling grass should trigger the "dragon" cutscene. What happens is that the game freezes instead.
3) Did the game ever work correctly (i.e. not have this problem) on an
earlier version of dolphin? Please specify the exact revision when the
problem began.
R- I don't know. I never used earlier versions of Dolphin on my actual machine.
4) What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Get the Vessel of Light from Lake Hylia.
2.Instead of getting insects starting from Lake Hylia, start from Zora's Domain.
3.Howl to the calling grass on Upper Zora River.
5) What version of dolphin are you using (32bit/64bit along with the
version as it appears in the title bar, etc)?
On what operating system, drivers, and hardware? Be sure to list OS,
graphics driver information, and video card model if you are having
graphics problems, for example.
R- Dolphin 3.0-204-dirty x64
System Specs:
-HP G42 271BR Notebook
-AMD Athlon II P340 2.2 GHz
-2Gb RAM
-ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250

Strangely I seemed to solve my issue, but it didn't involve any configuration settings or similar stuff. What I did was, I'm not really sure about the timing, but by pressing A+Z, you somewhat change something and the command works. After doing the dragon thing, I tested the howl command(by pressing A, like normal) on some calling grass at Lake Hylia and the game didn't froze up.

Not solved. With the settings described above, the game froze on me in Faron Woods while triggering the horse calling grass by acident. This happened while trying to find the Sacred Grove.
I wouldn't call this issue solved. Pressing two buttons at once seem to solve it, but it's almost impossible to do due to the timing that has to be frame accurate.
I also tested doing the two-button press trick, doing a howl event, then doing the howl event like normal. The game still freezes. Also, the button combination you have to press seem to change according to the place, as A+Z froze the game, while A+B triggered the howl event.
