r/DolphinEmulator

on my Xbox series x I recently got dev mode and dolphin and downloaded my games on my USB but only one game is showing up in dolphin and when I try to launch it to play it crashes and sends me back to dev mode if anybody can help and give me advice that would be amazing

as the title saids i been having speed spikes and fps is all over the place. and switching to opengl backend just causes graphical issues. im new to dolphin so i dont really know whats going on. the only things that i toggle on is vulken, exlusive ubershaders and compile shaders.

also my device is a samsung s26+ with a snapdragon 8 elite gen 5 is my phone not suitable for dolphin?

I’m looking for recommendations on using my Wiimote MotionPlus with Dolphin on a Windows 10 PC.

I’m torn between a DolphinBar and a USB Bluetooth adapter for games like Wii Sports Resort, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, Mario Party 9, etc.
I have already a Wii U sensor bar.

I also play via Netplay with friends occasionally.

My PC doesn't have Bluetooth (build-in), and I’m primarily looking for the most reliable and good performance, not expensive either.

Which of the two would you recommend please?

Permadeath is pissing me off i’m sick of restarting every chapter 5 times because a unit dies due to a bad placement, i wanna experience the game without each chapter taking 3 hours

i want to play Michael Jackson the experience but i need to know can i like use the joycons as a wii remote? Edit: First 3 replies are yes no and idk lol

Hi all! This is my first time using Dolphin and I've been able to get the GameCube stuff working fine. However this morning I tried to pair a Wii Remote I got off of Amazon (this one to be specific) that has a Wii Motion Plus built in and seemed to have good reviews, and it will turn on and flash like it's pairing but will not be sensed by Dolphin. I've looked online and other than trying to get an official remote I've tried everything I could find online for troubleshooting. I don't know if it's the fact it has the Motion Plus built in or what but I'm running out of options and getting increasingly frustrated.

Here's all the things I've tried for troubleshooting...

• Pairing Directly to PC (couldn't find remote at all)
• Pairing Directly to Dolphin through the Controller Settings
• Changed settings to use a real Wii remote, connect Wii remote for emulated controllers, and continuous scanning. Turned these settings on, tried to pair, then turning them off after it didn't pair.
• Pairing Directly to Dolphin through different games booted up (Mario Party 8, Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort)
• Setting up Pairing Through a Bluetooth Adapter and following the steps on the Wiki for that. Didn't work and reset and reinstalled all my drivers for my Bluetooth Adapter.
• Enabled and disabled Speaker Data.
• Rebooted the Dolphin software and the PC and still no connection.

If anyone has any tips/tricks aside from just getting an official controller I would greatly appreciate it. ☺️

update to add specs: I'm on Windows 10 OS with a Bluetooth radio receiver as my Bluetooth input. Dolphin is on 6.5.1.

I want to play Metroid Prime Trilogy, but I don't have a Wiimote. What control scheme should I use for the game. If you have images, please show.
