Until {{revision|4.0-5097}} the default kanji font display extremely thin (1 pixel) as opposed to showing as a thick font with grey pixels around the edges. This was a problem with Dolphin's font files, which prior to {{revision|4.0-5097}} are low resolution and may be hard to read. As of {{revision|4.0-5097}}, the Japanese fonts have been replaced by the free Droid Sans Japanese font (released under the [http://raw.githubusercontent.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/fdce69473d7dc07e054953f7576f0533fdd83d17/Data/Sys/GC/font-licenses.txt Apache 2 license]) which is much closer to the look of the original hardware, and can be downloaded [http://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/blob/fdce69473d7dc07e054953f7576f0533fdd83d17/Data/Sys/GC/font_sjis.bin?raw=true here] for use with any revision.


Though closer to the Wii fonts the Droid Sans Japanese font is not the same. For pixel-perfect kanji display you can rip fonts from a Wii by following the instructions [http://translate.google.com/translate?act=url&depth=1&hl=en&ie=UTF8&prev=_t&rurl=translate.google.com&sl=ja&tl=en&u=http://wikiwiki.jp/gcwiiemu/%3FTips_Font_Improvement here].

Emulation Information

Garbage Text

The game will show garbage text rather than Japanese by default, to fix this simply tick the box under Config > Display that says "Set Console to NTSC-J"

Improper GameCube Font

Due to copyright concerns, Dolphin is unable to include official GameCube fonts, and instead uses Droid Sans. Unfortunately, Droid Sans does not align well with the size/kerning of the official GameCube font, which can cause text to be misplaced, dialogs to display improperly, and other issues due to differing text sizes.

This can be corrected by including a region appropriate GameCube IPL (i.e. BIOS ROM) under <Dolphin User Folder>/GC/. A GameCube "IPL.bin" can be acquired from a real GameCube using Swiss. Refer issue 8362. GameCube BIOS files need to be named "IPL.bin" in order for Dolphin to detect them, and should be 2,097,152 bytes in size. IPL files are different for PAL consoles and NTSC consoles, but American NTSC consoles use the same IPL files as Japanese NTSC consoles. The known good CRC32 checksums below can be used to validate files, but it is possible that a bad dump with a different checksum also works.

NTSC CRC32 Brazil CRC32 PAL CRC32
v1.0 6DAC1F2A 4F319F43
v1.1 D5E6FEEA 667D0B64
v1.2 86573808 AD1B7F16
