Description

Game Name?
Tested with Mario Kart Wii, New Super Mario Bros. Wii and Pikmin 2 remake, but applies to every game.

Game ID?
/

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong in few words.
Dolphin serves a black screen after loading a game from a folder. VPS are 60, though FPS is 0. The emulation percentage is around a 100% and frequently changes (as in, it's not frozen, it does move around like normally).

What did you expect to happen instead?
I expected Dolphin to load the game, as it did in the previous versions.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Download Dolphin 4.0-6514
  2. Extract a Wii game, link the DVD root to the files partition, link the apploader to the apploader.img file in the system partition, open main.dol
  3. Experience literally nothing happening.

Dolphin 3.5 and 3.5-367 are old versions of Dolphin that have
known issues and bugs, so don't report issues about them and test the
latest Dolphin version first.
Which versions of Dolphin did you test on?

  • 4.0-7141 (fails)
  • 4.0-6514 (fails) <-- first revision which creates crash

Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which
versions of Dolphin used to work?

  • 4.0-6502 (works) <-- last working revision
  • .. every older revision from on there works

What are your PC specifications? (including, but not limited to: Operating
System, CPU and GPU)
Windows 8.1 64-bit
AMD A10-5700 APU with Radeon HD Graphics - 3.40Ghz
8.00 GB RAM

Is there any other relevant information? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files)

I wish I could provide some sort of log, I simply don't know how. Tried running both in debugging mode, but I didn't understand a single thing about it. "The numbers, Mason.. What do they mean?"

Thanks in advance!
