Hi,
I had this game running flawlessly on dolphin last week then I had to tweak some settings for F-zero now for the life of me I cannot figure out why it's suddenly microstuttering. Everytime I select a menu options or when someone moves in a match the audio hiccups and there's a microstutter.
PC specs: I9 9900k
64gb ddr4 ram
2080 TI
Dolphin settings
does anyone know what I'm doing wrong here? I also have the cpu core clock at 100% and dual core disabled in the emulator settings itself.
Remember that per game game graphics settings exist. Right click a game in Dolphin, click properties and customize graphics there for each game instead of the universal settings.
The hack tab is missing from your screenshots, but I don't see anything wrong with the rest. I would turn off "Enable Graphic mods" in the Advance tab if the game doesn't use them (just in case, a texture pack doesn't count as a Graphic mod). With "Enable graphic mod" on, performance takes a hit even if the game is not using a mod. Also, I think Vsync should be on and "arbitrary mipmap detection" should be off by default unless the game use it. Your settings are really low for such a system, you could use a way higher resolution.
yeah this is my per game tab for sc2, only realized that after messing with the settings the first time. dunno if they override emulator settings though. here's the hack tab:

also tested with your recommendations, no difference in the stuttering.
The wiki states it is not recommended to use Nvidia with Vulkan + HUshaders. This is still actual?
I don't see that on the wiki unless i'm using the wrong one. either way it doesn't seem to make a difference :(
