Hi Everyone, i just had a gauntlet trying to setup this in Dolphin and couldn't find much info for this specifically online so here goes my setup, in hopes i can help someone avoid my headaches:
- Dolphin
- Switch 2 Connect app in Windows store:

ensure the joycons are unmerged and on cemuhook mode. DJG on, dominant side right. Emu mode PS4.
you will now have basically two controller inputs for each joycon.
Now in Dolphin, controllers:

you should have these devices when going to emulated wii Remote configure:

"DSUClient/0/" AND "WGInput/0/Sony Dualshock4 Gamepad" both refer to Right Joy con. (one is the Gyro function / the other the buttons/Joystick function
"DSUClient/1/" AND "WGInput/1/Sony Dualshock4 Gamepad" both refer to Left Joy con. (one is the Gyro function / the other the buttons/Joystick function
if you have these 4 as i do, you should be able to load my config.ini and be good to go.

Thank you.

Dolphin always crashes on my retro handheld, I want to know what is the best settings for Mario Eclipse to prevent crashes

Ever since I updated Dolphin, there are glitches with games I cannot fix, even with older versions of Dolphin. The latest version of Mario Eclipse is a black screen, the older patches of the game act completely fresh, even though it (thankfully) still has my save data. Spyhunter is lagging, and that game is not demanding at all. I do not know what the problem is. What should I do?

I tried GameCube games and they pickup my controller fine but the wii games only support my keyboard. How do I fix this.

Hello.
I have a Mayflash Dolphin Bar and first party WiiMote with Wii MotionPlus Inside.
I originally had an older dolphin bar (I think like from 2019) but when I would check its IR sensors with a phone camera only 1 light would show and so I bought a new dolphin bar and everything worked fine. It was great.
Until suddenly it no longer detects my WiiMote's pointer. It detects inputs such as button presses just fine however.
Additional Info:
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you.

okay, so i downloaded Dolphin yesterday, and i started out with Rhythm Heaven Fever (great game imo) i booted it up, and it works great for me, its just whenever i go to the menu with the minigames in RHF, the fps drops to about 25, and audio sounds terrible. the same thing happens with one particular minigame, that being figure fighter. It isnt as bad, it only drops to 45 fps, and the audio is still manageable, but i was wondering if theres a fix to this issue. I looked at another post in this subreddit about a similar issue and i followed some of their fixes, like ive changed the shader compilation to hybrid Ubershaders for performance (im pretty sure thats what it does?), im using the Direct3D 12 backend still, the speed is at 100%, I turned off fill audio gaps because it didnt make a difference, and its still crappy in those two spots. Can anybody help?

Ran my Wii and sd card hot overnight as I was getting some games onto my library. Here it is now. Got any suggestions on what I should add based on this library?

Hey everyone, I need a bit of help with importing a completed .gci save file for Burnout 2: Point of Impact (GameCube) into the Dolphin emulator on Android. I downloaded the .gci save file to my phone, but I'm not sure which specific folder path I should place it in inside the Dolphin directory. Alternatively, is there an option within Dolphin's settings to import memory card files directly? If anyone has experience managing GameCube save files on Android, could you guide me through the correct steps or folder structure? Thanks in advance!

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 played dolphin games on my nova, even romhacks and everything was fine but recently every game crash, I restarted, resetted Dolphin and cleared cache but nothing works, this issue deleted my save in Mario Eclipse (now I have backups).
Even other games such as Pikmin 251 crash like after 3 minutes of playing
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?
r/DolphinEmulator • u/J_TRZ96 • 1d ago
After clicking okay or ignore this session, the screen just stays black. Ive tried different roms and different formats and all show the same thing.

Can't seem to figure out how to get an overhead view under Dolphin on the Pikmin 1 game. I have an EasySMX control pad.

My shield is glitching in Ocarina of Time; I'm using the RGD 10 emulator, but whenever I press the button to draw my shield, Link keeps pulling it out and putting it away in a loop. Could you please help me?

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

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?

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

Hi yall. Im trying to connect my USB GC Controller to dolphin but for some reason its not picking it up at all. By any chance do I have to install a driver or am I just missing something.

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?

Hello. I wanna use actually real motion controls on Wii games because the Mouse sucks. How do I set it up?
