(The sluggish framerate is likely more accurate emulation, so we shouldn't be suggesting Overclocking to address in Config. Added note to Enancements section.) |

=== Addressing Low Framerates === | |||
Nintendo 64 emulation is strenuous for the Wii. Sluggish framerates can be improved by using the Dolphin's options to overclock the Wii CPU. A CPU Clock Override of 175% should keep the framerate at a stable 30 FPS (1 player only) with no noticeable side effects. 2 player mode required an even higher override of 250% to avoid slowdown on San Francisco; the most stressful track. | |||

No noticeable bugs at 250% either, just a shorter draw distance in 2 player mode (probably just an engine limitation). I only played about 8 races in 'Cruise the USA' mode, so that gives me a pretty good idea on how the rest of the game will play out.|tester=Jodeth}} | ||
