Optomized GameCube on RG477V with GammaOS
Edit: I had the device on power save mode. *hangs head in embarrassment.*
I've got my 477v in the mail on Monday, and I haven't even really got to play a game on it yet. I'm a bit of a rom collector, and I've been going through and getting all of the older systems going the way I want them (Atari 2600-PSX/GBC.) And then I got to Gamecube....
I love how GammOS has retroarch preconfigured so well. Many games with the native dolphin core seem to work...okay, at least. Quite a bit of stutters. But then a game like Animal Crossing runs at about 60% speed. Also, when closing a game on that core, retroarch takes a 'concerning' number of seconds to close.
Stand alone dolphin seems to have identical performance, with two tweaks: games close instantly, and I've bene able to get the GCN splash screen to come up on boot. Becasue GammaOS did not have standalone dolphin pre-installed, I am assuming Gamma expects us to use the native core. That being said, I have two questions:
- Is there any way to tweak GC performance on this machine? Results so far have been unimpressive, and it makes me concerned for the future when I work on PSP, PS2, Wii, and Dreamcast.
- Has anybody successfully got the GC splash screen working in the native dolphin core, and can tell me how to do that?
Thank you everybody for your help.
