Dolphin is a GameCube / Wii emulator, allowing you to play games for these two platforms on PC with improvements.

skidau 35b6e71f03 Experimental FIFO thread. Speeds up the emulator by moving FIFO to its own thread. This will work best with quad cores, though there is a noticeable improvement on my dual core.
Enable the thread by adding this line to the video plugin ini files, "User\Config\gfx_dx9.ini" and "User\Config\gfx_opengl.ini":

UseFIFOThread = True

The line should be added under the UseXFB line.

To disable the FIFO thread, use this line:

UseFIFOThread = False

If the line is not in the ini file, the default is disabled (i.e. False).

The FIFO thread causes an error when the OpenGL plugin is used.  The D3D plugin works.

Only top left quarter of the screen can be seen when rendering to main window.  The entire screen can be viewed when running in a window.

Data 1. Fixed the freeze issue in "Super Mario Galaxy" and other games, which was introduced since r4762 2010-01-02 05:15:36 +00:00
Externals Some clean up in io_osx.m, the if not confused me in the SConscript. I made the frames work with WX 2.9. Disabled rumble in Wiimote in OSX. Wiimote MAY work in Dolphin in OSX, not 100% sure. Made a test app and it works in that. Couldn't build a WX build of Dolphin in OSX because Macports doesn't compile in AUI apparently 2010-01-20 11:49:11 +00:00
Installer Setup: Due to the merge of IL, update install script. 2010-01-20 08:23:38 +00:00
Languages/po Initial directory structure. 2009-08-09 21:01:41 +00:00
