GameCube/Wii Error: Mario Part 5

retropieuser555

Just tested it on regular standalone dolphin and it works fine.

I got into Story mode and did a few turns of the undersea board and it runs ok, these were my settings file GP5P01.ini

Game ID: GP5P01 (Internal Name: Mario Party 5, Country: Europe)

[Controls]
PadProfile1 = 8BitDo Pro 2

[Video_Hacks]
VISkip = True
EFBAccessEnable = False

Using the PAL version,

@Nash Thanks for sharing, I was not aware of this fork.
Will be giving a try just for RE4.

On Pi5 Bookworm 64bit I had error on first compile attempt:

CMake Error at Externals/wxWidgets3/CMakeLists.txt:861 (message):
  wxGTK2 needs Xinerama and Xxf86vm

Was able to resolve error with:

sudo apt install libxxf86vm-dev x11proto-xinerama-dev

Can simply be added to depends in the install script:

local depends=(cmake gcc-11 g++-11 pkg-config libasound2-dev libopenal-dev libevdev-dev libgtk2.0-dev qtbase5-private-dev libxxf86vm-dev x11proto-xinerama-dev)

Edit: RE4 does work with this fork on Pi5, no white screen issues

@Nash ill can add this to my RetroPie-Extra if you are ok with that

RapidEdwin08

@ExarKunIv it still needs some work...
There's missing font and png errors at startup we need to look into, but it plays RE4 fairly well after.
I have not had a chance to look into them yet, but here are the Errors.

Font Error:

Error: Trying to access Windows-1252 fonts but they are not loaded. Games may not show fonts correctly, or crash.

PNG Error Log: Full Log Here

Could not find resource: /usr/local/share/dolphin-emu/sys/Resources/nobanner.png

@RapidEdwin08 thats the point of my repo. if i waited for everything to work perfectly it would be a very small collection

RapidEdwin08

@ExarKunIv ...and we are grateful...
I managed to address the errors already.
Will be posting when I get a chance.
Feel free to use.

RapidEdwin08

@Nash I took the liberty of updating the install script you posted to workaround the Font and PNG Errors previously mentioned, as well as a few other changes...
Can now run dophin-rpi without those errors at startup.
Thanks again for sharing as I was not aware of this fork.

@ExarKunIv Good idea but i'm not the author of this script. I think I found it in this forum but I don't remember the topic. All credits go to the guys who worked on it

Nash

@RapidEdwin08 Thanks, I will try that.

I have difficulties to setup hotkeys with 2 buttons in dolphin-configure and dolphin-rpi-editor. Only one button works. (This is not specific to your script, I just need help from the begining for that)

@Nash I think this is the topic:
:https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/35172/mkdd-tint-issue-rpi5/165?_=1741784929258

Nash

@sugarfree Yes I think it is.

RapidEdwin08

@Nash Same issue, but I was able to modify the profile.ini for the Hotkeys manually with success.

Here's a sample of my xbox360.ini in the Hotkeys Directory:

/home/pi/DolphinConfig5.0/Config/Profiles/Hotkeys/xbox360.ini
/home/pi/DolphinConfig5.0/Config/Hotkeys.ini

Keys/Toggle Pause = `Button 6` & `Button 3`
Keys/Stop = `Button 6` & `Button 1`
Keys/Reset = `Button 6` & `Button 0`
Keys/Toggle Fullscreen = `Button 6` & `Button 2`
Keys/Take Screenshot = `Button 6` & `Button 8`
Keys/Exit = `Button 6` & `Button 7`

On my Xbox360 gamepad,
Button 6 is Select/Back
Button 7 is Start

I remember that to set up hotkeys, you have to do this: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/post/301035.

i have added it to my repo. if any changes come up. i will edit it

Nash

@RapidEdwin08 @sugarfree Thanks, it works.

@RapidEdwin08 I know I am a bit late to this but I just wanted to mention that for RE4 I have heard that you might have some difficulty swapping discs in dolphin-rpi when you get to the end of the first disc as the game doesn't update the save file upon completing the firs disc (it's one of the games that insists you swap discs with the console on). I added m3u file support to dolphin-rpi a while back to address this complete with auto-disc changing, but I just wanted to mention that the m3u file needs to be written in linux (not windows). For example:

sudo nano /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/gc/RE4.m3u
type in the following text:

RE4_1.ciso
RE4_2.ciso

Windows has different line-ending characters and so the m3u file will not be interpreted properly in dolphin-rpi. This is confusing because I believe that later versions of dolphin-emu can handle windows m3u files on linux builds but that is not the case for dolphin-rpi which can has an early m3u implementation and where files must be written on linux systems.

Nash

@gvx64 With Notepad++ on Windows we can convert line-ending (windows, linux, or mac) for a text file.

Menu Edit, EOL conversion, Unix (LF)

@Nash, thanks for mentioning that. I wasn't aware of that feature.

Thank you for the improvements to the script. I never got around to fixing the missing .png error.

I appreciate you adding this to your RetroPie-Extras repo. This will give dolphin-rpi a lot more visibility.

Just to summarize all of the improvements to date that I have either identified or that have been brought to my attention that dolphin-rpi offers over current dolphin-emu builds:

Mario Kart Double Dash - corrects blue tint
Resident Evil 4 - corrects white textures
Mario Golf Toadstool Tour - corrects invisible golfers
Metroid Prime - corrects invisible map screen (probably also applies to Metroid Prime 2, but I haven't verified yet)
Zelda Twilight Princess (Gamecube version) - corrects blacked out map in corner of screen
Bomberman Generations - corrects black menus (reported by retropieuser555)
Sonic Adventure DX - not clear what the issue that it fixes (reported by retropieuser555)
The Last Story (Wii) - speedhack implemented to allow improved performance.

Nash

@gvx64 It is exactly "RE4_1.ciso" and "RE4_2.ciso" or "name_of_the_rom_disk1.ciso" and "name_of_the_rom_disk2.ciso" ?

Thanks again for your work, i'm very happy to re-play RE4 on my Pi.
