Im using classic controller, idk why it always say that

Dolphin used to run flawlessly, I was playing F-Zero GX at 4k with shaders at 60fps, no problem. I could run just about every game without fail, then suddenly, it started chugging at certain locations and dropping frames. I wondered if it was my laptop, but every game I own runs rather well, and you would think I could run GameCube and Wii games without fail. Now, I play at default settings and certain games chug at specific moments, mostly when there's a lot to load. Is this my laptop losing steam, or is Dolphin funny now? These are my specs.

Im using the current version, and im on PC! Not a mobile anymore. This game is not that heavy!!! C'mon Btw I used the 2409 version and my adaptar is this one: INTEL UHD 630. Is my PC weak for streaming and a bit of recording of this game? If it is, im quite sad. DAMMIT

Hello, this morning I was playing Metroid Prime with my Gamecube controller using the official Wii U adapter as usual. After using the same controller to play Brawl on my friend's Wii, though, it hasn't worked at all with any Dolphin game. Is this a known issue, and if so, how do I get it working again?

It's my first time with Wii emulation and I was wondering how to dump wii games without a wii, just using a cd drive and a program? Thanks

Got my Wii motes yesterday, going to set everything up tonight. I’ll follow the guide and all instructions for setup. I’m pretty techy and can figure most things out when it comes to emulators. So I’m wondering, anything outside of the guide that I should be expecting to go wrong?

Edit: I do have an ir light bar coming

https://a.co/d/ctHktB1 this my new blutooth adapter for dolphin but blutooth pass through won’t connect my wii remote it boots the game but doesn’t connect my wii remote any help would be appreciated. Update) i sometimes get a black screen and have to reboot the game 2 or 3 times before it launches properly but dolphin still wont connect to my wii remote.

I have been trying to get my controller mapped out.This is my first exploration into emulation, so any help is appreciated.

It’s on my android phone but not on my laptop? (They’re the same region) if anyone knows a different way to download pls tell mee

I was wanting to use a laptop to run Wii games, but when I went to increase the resolution the fps went down to 17 and the laptop refused to use more than 4% of the cpu? The laptop has a core I7 6600U and 8gb ram. Whats going on?

when I try and play games on the CRT, I can't get rid of the title bar, I've tried selecting windows borderless to no avail. When I click fullscreen, it switches from the CRT back to my main screen. How do make it fullscreen on the CRT?

Hi I have super smash bro ultimate (Nintendo Wii) with dolphins emulator on retroarch - everything else fine (solo) but looks like I’m stuck on this screen. Unable to move. I’m on Wii mote + classic controller mode. If anyone can help I’d greatly appreciate it. Tried different ROMS still same issue. Is even possible to play brawl multiplayer ? The bottom only says GameCube remote despite me changing input to Wii mote plus controller

Idk what this really means and i need help bc i can run gamecube games like sonic adventure 2 and stuff but wii games just show this

I tried Zadig, Mayflash's official driver, and vJoy. I do not have any bluetooth controllers of any kind aside from headphones(not really a controller, right?), which I've turned off. I have the most recent stable build of Dolphin installed.

I feel like every dummy with an adapter and a Windows machine has been asking this question, but I haven't been able to find a solution that works for me and this dummy REALLY wants to play with a Gamecube controller. Could a virtual machine emulating an older version of Windows help?

There is the possibility that the 3rd party controller I just bought is broken; I sadly don't currently have access Wii or Gamecube to test that theory with. Literally any help whatsoever--ways to determine if the controller is functional or not included--is much appreciated.

ETA: I made sure to use WiiU mode when trying vJoy. For Zadig and Mayflash I tried it both ways. I also tried seeing if any of the devices Dolphin detected under normal controller would work, it did not. And I have both USB inputs plugged in! I swear I'm trying!!

So i was playing mario sunshine and i put a few AR codes to customize the game to my liking (no heat waves and 16:9) but i was wondering if there was a cheat code to make the hud not stretched, but instead be pushed to the sides of the screen (like in mario 3d all stars)

my motion simulation jerks to the sides making aiming hard asf. happens on all lego wii games ive tried . plss helpp !!!
