As a prerequisite, you must first dump a copy of IPL.bin from a GameCube console. Then disable '''Skip BIOS''' in the Dolphin settings. To access the menu from launching a GameCube game, load any GameCube game of the appropriate region, and hold A as the GameCube logo animates. {{revision|5.0-3902}} added the ability to boot directly to the menu from the Dolphin menu. | |||
To change discs, right click on any game in the game list and select "Change Disc", or use File > Change Disc. | === Inserting a Disc / Changing Discs === | ||
To insert a disc or change discs, right click on any game in the game list and select "Change Disc", or use File > Change Disc. The GameCube menu has regional lockout mechanism in place, so when there's a region difference between the GameCube menu and disc, you will receive the message "The disc could not be read". | |||
=== | === Cheats, Savestates, Game INIs Not Working After Disc Change === | ||
Dolphin | When emulating a GameCube, Dolphin only recognizes the first thing loaded as the game that is being played. So while changing the disc during the GameCube BIOS menu, for example, [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] was loaded from the Game List, and then change disc and load [[Super Mario Sunshine]], the game cheats, game-specific settings, and even any savestates made will be for Melee and not Super Mario Sunshine. | ||

The start up animation and menu will stretch and distort unless XFB is enabled, either virtual or real will correct for this issue. | === Disc Swapping Hang === | ||
Since at least {{revision|5.0-9241}}, when using Dolphin's "Change Disc" feature in the GameCube Main Menu, switching between certain combinations of discs will cause the menu to hang. This does not occur on Interpreter. See {{issue|11503}}. | |||
=== <s>Flickering/Stretchy Menu</s> === | |||
The start up animation and menu will stretch and distort unless XFB is enabled, either virtual or real will correct for this issue. Fixed with Hybrid XFB in {{revision|5.0-5874}}. | |||

Despite the fixes {{revision|4.0-7286}} made to the DSP HLE sound by more accurately emulating Zelda ucode, music and effects in the IPL are still missing or distorted.
