Description

  1. Game Name and ID (as it appears in right click > properties:
    GZLE01
    (The Legends of Zelda: Wind Waker)

2) What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I should see normal hot air riseing up from the lava, insted the hot air flickers all over the screen and makes it unplayable without getting a MAJOR headache

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.

The game works fine, but when I enter hot ares where you can see the heat indifferences in the air, insted of the heat the entire screen get flickers of hot air.

4) What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Entering Hot ares with lava
    2.
    3.
  1. What version of dolphin are you using
    3.0 64bit

6) Please provide any additional information below.
My brother says he have the same problem on super mario sunshine but it's not a major problem as you can extinguish flames and make the issue go away =p

  1. Attachments.

The flickers are so quick that when I take screen shots you don't see the issue, insted it appears normal.

This is a well known issue, you should always first check the wiki or use the search function:

I agree, this is known issue and was never fixed, however you can still play this area of the game. However i do run win7 64bit but use the 32bit version of Dolphin, as i found the 64bit one did not want to run for some reason. Try the 32bit version it may help a bit with this area.

The 64bit version works fine for me, at least the 3.0 stable and various other revisions I've tested.

i haven't tried any new version of the 64bit one. But i can't be bothered to test or change over. This latest built is fine for me on 32bit.

Right, I'm sorry for not checking the wiki. But I had been trying to fix the issue for quite some time and I guess I got impatient and therefore decided to post here. I guess my search words were a bit off and that's why I didn't find any answears anywhere.

Well Thanks for the help anyways. Disableing EFB Copies seems to me to be the best option. and then just reenableing it when done with dragon roost or something.

Again thanks for the help =)
