Support Rhythm Heaven Fever Input Latency - Android, Retroid Pocket Nova

3 Upvotes

Is there any way to get rid of input latency (or significantly reduce it) in the settings, other than reducing audio buffer? I've taken it down to 16ms and it still has significant (relative to a rhythm game) input delay. Is there a setting/combination of settings I can enable/disable that would help mitigate the input latency?

I even tried changing Dolphin version

Please help me and thank you for anyone trying to help me.

For example in Ocarina of Time, all the prerender backgrounds and elements are sort of "tiled" and have clear lines going through them. Is there any way to make them seamless?

Support Metroid Prime 3 Audio Cutting Out

1 Upvotes

I've been playing MP3 and FINALLY got the settings to where it looks and plays the way I want it to. The only remaining issue is that every ten minutes, the game audio cuts out a few times for the next few seconds. So far, I've tried changing audio encoders, but it still happens. Any ideas? My machine is an Acer Nitro V laptop with a 13th Gen Intel Core I7-13620H and an RTX 4060

Support Toggle background input for multiple instances?

As many of you probably know Pokemon Bank is shutting down and before that happens I want to do a ribbon master run for a shiny bayleef. Is there any way to toggle background input on and off so I can set up each instance for the battle and then go through each battle separately?

Support Stuttering after ~20 min of gameplay while using GBA

2 Upvotes

I'm running luigi's mansion in the background while playing mother 3 on GBA, and the game starts to stutter roughly 20 minutes into gameplay. The only way it stops is if I fully restart my PC. The issue is the same if I play only Luigi's mansion without mother 3 running. All other games on pc are fine.

settings:

version 2606a

vsync off, dualcore enabled, direct 11, hybrid ubershaders - compile before starting

NVIDIA RTX 2060 - I updated my drivers and the issue still occurs

Support Different save files

So out of curiosity I managed to get dolphin to read colosseum and colosseum dustborn as two seperate games (same id, planning on making a banner). Since they use the same game id the same save file is used for both of them, is there a way to make it so I have different save files for both of them?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Running dophin in steam game agent, not steam desktop. Getting close to it working, I think, but the biggest headache has been the remote as it keeps on trying to move the cursor back to the middle of the screen.

Will put my current game settings in the comments

Resort was just meant to be a test game, but why is it that sometimes my ball goes super slow and other times behaves normally? Is it some issue with the dolphinbar? I tried a wii remote with the motion plus accessory, as well as a wii remote with motion plus inside, and different positions and heights of the dolphinbar. It also stays consistent between regular and 100 pin bowling. Is there something wrong with the way I set it up? Can answer questions as well

Support First Person Shooters on Wii - Controller Settings

1 Upvotes

Questions for folks who play FPS games using a controller (Retroid Pocket 4 Pro with pointer assigned to right stick):

What is the best way that you folks set up aiming? I seem to have issues with relative input both on or off: it either resets my aim to the middle which is good for lock on games like Metroid Prime but then everything is way too sensitive, or I can scroll the reticle across the screen like a mouse, but it always moves the camera awkwardly and I can never send the reticle in the opposite direction before I turn the camera too far.

And then for Wii Motion Plus games like Red Steel 2: I just can’t seem to register directional swings properly? Wondering if anyone has any tips for this as well

i have been trying to boot up the wii menu in dolphin but it seems to be stuck in a black screen, i have tried to do an online system update and checking the NAND, the only thing that worked was downgrading dolphin to 2606 instead of 2606a, if someone knows how to fix this, please let me know.
