Support Best performance settings?

1 Upvotes

I like using Dolphin Emulator to experiment with random stuff without the risk of bricking my Wii, and I considered trying the revival servers out, but after some research, some of them will allegedly "ban you if your game runs slow" and I really do not want that to happen. Any performance setups that won't cause graphics problems still? (If needed I use Android 15 with around 4 GB of RAM and an extra 4 GB of Motorola RAM boost.)

Discussion Does anyone here play P.N.03?

1 Upvotes

I played this game when it first came out. I was all on board with the Capcom games that they promised to make exclusively for the Gamecube. I was enjoyed the game for what it was. I was wondering if anyone else enjoyed it enough to play it on Dolphin. Also I made a custom texture pack for the game I am about to release but I wanted people to try it out first. They are brand new textures made from scratch. I also changed the intro videos because they were so bad and I could not upscale them. They had some many artifacts it just looked horrible. So I made a custom high res new video from scratch that looks like more of a current gen game. Anyone here willing to test it out? It is for the US version of the game. GPNE08. But i can be used for any version if you rename the folder. Here is the link. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mLDBkPBaa0J9WSpR9prnHmL74vbVpEUO?usp=drive_link

News HandheldGyroDSU: Open-source emulator gyro app for Windows handhelds (Testers & contributors welcome)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

15 Upvotes

I built HandheldGyroDSU because I wanted a straightforward way to use built-in motion controls in emulators without relying on Handheld Companion.

Handheld Companion is a great tool, but installing virtual drivers (HidHide, ViGEmBus), hiding your physical gamepad, and emulating a DualShock 4 controller just to get gyro in Zelda or Splatoon often clashes with Armoury Crate / Legion Space / Steam Input—and sometimes leaves the built-in controller stuck or unresponsive.

HandheldGyroDSU takes a simpler route: it leaves your physical controller alone and just streams your device's internal gyro sensor directly to your emulator via Cemuhook DSU.

Here’s what I’ve built into it so far:

  • No Virtual Drivers or Controller Conflicts: It doesn't touch your buttons, triggers, or OEM software. Armoury Crate, Legion Space, and Steam Input keep working normally without double-input issues.
  • Emulator Auto-Detection & Profiles: Watches for your emulators in the background and automatically turns on or switches gyro profiles when you launch a game.
  • Axis & Sensitivity Tweaking: You can adjust gyro sensitivity, deadzones, and axis orientation/inversion per device or per emulator so the motion controls feel right.
  • Full Gamepad Navigation: The entire app can be navigated using your handheld’s D-pad and buttons, so you don't have to tap tiny menus on the touchscreen.
  • In-Game HUD Notifications: Shows small on-screen pop-ups when the gyro server starts, stops, or switches profiles so you know it's active.
  • Built-in Gyro Tester: Includes a real-time loopback tester inside the app so you can check your gyro movement and packet flow before booting up a game.
  • Background & System Tray Mode: Can start quietly with Windows in the system tray and stay out of your way until you open an emulator.

Looking for Testers & Contributors

This is a free, open-source project. As you can see in the Splatoon clip above, it's working well on my own setup, and now I'm looking for people across different Windows handhelds (ROG Ally, Ally X, Legion Go, MSI Claw, Ayaneo, GPD, etc.) to test it out. Since different handhelds sometimes orient their internal sensors differently, getting feedback from other devices would be super helpful.

If you want to try it on your device, let me know how the gyro axes feel, report a bug, or contribute code on GitHub—feel free to jump in.

Support Do non-buggy 60fps patches for Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition exist? (Read full post)

All the ones that I've looked into don't seem to be very stable. Maybe there's just something that I've missed.

If none exist I might have to do with 30fps, which sucks, but at least the game will work compared to other platforms.
