I messed around w/ the settings a bit, and got a chance to actually play the game a bit. built a farmer and grunt workshop. also went treasure hunting and built a town square.
the game freezes in the morning for whatever reason, i hope they come up with a solution. i'll try to play some more and post my settings.

Ah so ENB Series makes the game look like shit. No surprise there. About the only game it ever managed to make look good is GTA4 and that required very specific settings otherwise it looked like shit as well.
Anyways, reached the castle. Guide will be up shortly:

Not sure if serious... The game looks like shit with the bloom problem, and looks too dark with it off. ENB Makes it look right with bloom off.

Try a different Build, possibly 2.0?EGM92 said:
It looks like shit with the bloom on, the textures look really washed out, ENB Series does the same thing only without the bloom.Metalmurphy said:
That is build 2.0 I also tried a SVN. I got it to work on my desktop but not my laptop.
The laptop has better BT but the emu doesn't run properly, but the desktop works and games start but the wiimote has problems it syncs, the emu finds the remote, I refresh and it vibrates but it doesn't work in games. or at least in New super mario bros.

There are no changes being made to the textures lol. Only brightness/gama. Just cause a dark game hides the imperfections doesn't mean you should play it like that.

Weird, is the Bluetooth adapter on your PC on that list of the supported adaptors? And I don't really see this as being laptop friendly. At least for NSMB Wii, it's easy to get a good 360 controller/keyboard set up as it doesn't use the Wiimote features that much (those it does use are easily bound).

I am perfectly aware that no changes are being made to the textures, high gamma and brightness still makes them/everything in the game look washed out. I would rather play with out bloom and without ENB Series. Can you honestly say that you think the ENB Series shot looks better than the bloomless one that Wesker posted?

I think the ENB shot looks a little bit better... maybe it's because I'm on a CRT, which makes the shot I posted look even darkerStallion Free said:

That particular screenshot favours the non ENB screenshot better, but still yes. I think it looks better, cause the black levels are correct and not exaggerated. And there are areas of the game where the darkness becomes more of a problem, while looking great on with ENB.
Lots of screenshots here:

Anyone that played MH3 without bloom will instantly tell you those look better.

Maybe it's useful in the darker areas, but in every single one of those daylight screens with green, it looks awful IMO.Metalmurphy said:

Issues
A couple tricky issues here. Fortunately, nothing game ending.
- Freezes up in Chapter 3-1 on the dual pressure switch. The only way around this is to go around the right switch, tell Ashley to
follow you until she is standing on the pressure switch, then move back around to the other switch. - Music cuts out every now and then, no fix found.
- Frame rate drops when a large number of enemies are on the screen, no fix found.
- Frame rate drop during lift sequence in Chapter 2-3, no fix found.

Abso-fuckin-lutely awesome thread, you deserve a Wii as a prize :lol
Waiting for the guide to make the most out of Monster Hunter Tri, as all this talk about a specific version patched to run it correctly makes my head spin.

I think it's funny that we prefer to emulate the awesome Wii version rather than muck around with that awful PC port that SourceNext did.Stallion Free said:
Any tips for stopping the wiimote from disconnecting every now and again?
I got it working with a trial of bluesol and without, but it still seems to disconnect and lock the game up after say .. 10 minutes? Before then there might be one or two disconnects but it reconnects and away we go.

From my experience some games seem to make it disconnect more than others. Make sure you are using a supported Bluetooth adapter and the newest revision possible as they have been improving the connectivity a lot since 2.0.

Good lord these games look beautiful. RE4!!! WOW. I would love to see some REmake pics. Some of these games can pass for being on HD consoles or I just may be blind and need my eyes checked.
Some pics of Skies of Arcadia, Tales of Symphonia, No More Heroes 2, Viewtiful Joe, WWE Day of Reckoning 2 (IDK I thought it look great when it came out), Def Jam FfNY pic would be great. Reading this thread makes me want to play RE4 again so bad.

A curious thing I found while trying to run Wind Waker today - I followed the directions in the OP and second post perfectly, it runs at 20FPS at 1600x900. I try every combination of "to Texture" and 16x anisotropic and AA, still 20FPS. Now I think my rig just doesn't have enough power (2.66Ghz, GTX260, 3.3RAM, XP). But no matter what resolution I run the game at, and I went down to setting the aspect ratio to Auto and running the game in 480, it's still running around 20FPS when looking at the island. So now I'm thinking it isn't pure power, just some setting that needs to be fiddled with.

I had that issue on one of the newer revisions, try 2.0 as TP works perfectly on it.John said:
I had this same exact issue on PN03. Try turning off the framelimit to see what your FPS can go up to. Chances are it will go well above 30 fps. Then try out different framelimits until you find one that keeps it at 30. I ended up setting the framelimit to 80 or 90 on PN03 and that made it hold 30 fps proper.John said:

Awesome work. I really think you should add new guides to the OP (or the second/third post), as not everyone will want to go through every page of the thread to find them, and this thread is destined to become huge.

VS
TOS1 has some issues, most noticeably the sound and some weird graphical issues. TOS2 works fine though

Oh snap that worked perfectly. Framelimit off and audio throttle on got me the proper 30 fps. I guess edit that in your post?

Amazing, amazing thread. Absolutely one of the best of all of GAF. I'd like to contribute somehow... I have a pretty good PC, but I don't want to homebrew my Wii. =/
It's so funny how the original consoles never do their games any justice, though. All of these screenshots are so beautiful. Good art direction is king.

Not quite perfectly, Hyrule field still has a big issue concerning slowdowns in any PC later in the game.Stallion Free said:

TP runs great though, except this:
I think that is fixed by turning off CPU -> EFB access?
