System Requirements:
|
||
* Windows 2000 or higher. The Linux build is at least 80% done, it starts,
|
||
but won't run games yet. There's a bug somewhere.
|
||
* Fast CPU. Dual core a plus.
|
||
* Any reasonable modern GPU, support for pixel shaders 2.0 required.
|
||
|
||
New Features
|
||
* Interprets Action Replay codes
|
||
* Buggy framerate limiter, deactivated
|
||
* Full Xbox 360 Controller support, with rumble
|

Dolphin is a Gamecube emulator. It also has preliminary support for Wii and
|
||
Triforce emulation.
|
||
|
||
Gamecube compatibility is about the same as previous releases.
|
||
|
||
Wii compatibility is very low. Some games show their intro movies, that's it.
|
||
There is preliminary Wiimote emulation but it does not work yet.
|
||
|
||
We haven't worked on Dolphin for a long time, except for a short burst adding
|
||
the basic Wii support, and we don't think we will finish it, so we hereby
|
||
release it, in its current unfinished state, to the world.
|
||
|
||
Usage Notes
|
||
-----------
|
||
The GUI should be pretty much self-explanatory.
|
||
|
||
To attempt to boot Wii ISOs, you need the disc master key. It should be
|
||
called "masterkey.bin". Put it in the Wii subdirectory.
|
||
|
||
To use Action Replay codes, follow the examples in the Patches subdirectory.
|
||
Use + in front of a cheat name to activate it. The cheats can be named
|
||
anything.
|
||
|
||
Code Notes
|
||
----------
|
||
Dolphin is written in C++. It's compiled with Visual Studio 2005. An
|
||
installation of the DirectX SDK is required.
|
||
|
||
To tweak settings for the JIT/Dynarec, see Core/PowerPC/Jit64/JitCache.cpp,
|
||
in InitCache().
|
||
|
||
We have a scons build system set up, but if anyone wants to create an
|
||
automake solution, go ahead, we'd appreciate it.
|
||
|
||
We are looking for new source code maintainers. |
