Windows and Mac

  • Download and decompress the latest revision/version of Dolphin.
  • Put it on a folder (preferably named after the revision).
    • If you want to use old GameCube Memory Card files, place them on "./User/GC"
    • Wii NAND dumps should be placed on "./User/Wii"
    • Using StateSaves between versions may cause problems. It is not recommended.

Linux

Linux users can build and install from source code.

Configure Plugins

In most cases, the preset settings works fine. If you want to change something, Performance guide can help you.

File Browser

  • You can launch ISO/WAD files by browsing them, or setting a folder to search for files (which will be shown at the Dolphin's main window)
    • Banner/Game Names may not load at first time. Making a save file for that game fixes it. That isn't a bug itself. (GameCube games don't have this issue)
    • Items shown can be toggled on/off on the "View" menu.
