Emulation Information

Emulating Swing

Either a bug with Dolphin's emulated Wii Remote functionality or Emulation of the game itself, Emulated Swing bindings will not function properly in game. Because you need to use these motions to command Spectrobes, and thus beat the tutorial, the game is currently unplayable without a real Wii Remote.

This is fixed by 5.0-8443 where these actions can be emulated as follows:

• Awaken Nunchuk: Nunchuk Swing Down (50cm, 12m/s, 12m/s, 90deg) or Nunchuk Swing Right
• Awaken Wiimote: Wiimote Swing Down (50cm, 12m/s, 12m/s, 90deg)
• Excavation Hammer Hit: Wiimote Swing Down (50cm, 12m/s, 12m/s, 90deg)
• 'Go' Order: Wiimote Swing Down (50cm, 12m/s, 12m/s, 90deg)
• 'Come Back' Order: Wiimote Swing Left (50cm, 12m/s, 12m/s, 90deg)
• Dodge Roll: Nunchuk Swing Right (50cm, 12m/s, 12m/s, 90deg)
• Charge Special Attack: Wiimote Swing Upward + Nunchuk Swing Upward (hold down until full)
• Release Special Attack: Release Wiimote Swing Upward + Nunchuk Swing Upward

Testing

This title has been tested on the environments listed below:

Test Entries
Revision	OS	CPU	GPU	Result	Tester
5.0-4873	Windows 7	Intel Core i5-3570k	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770	Constant 60FPS, 3x IR, 2x MSAA and Hybrid Ubershaders. I configured my swing binding with sensitivity of +500 to make sure inputs would actually be detected, as recommended for other games using Swing, but no commands are registered in game. The tutorial is impossible to beat without a real Wii Remote.	DjBlades
5.0-11420	Windows 10	Intel Core i5-3570k	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050	The game runs perfectly and all actions can be performed through the emulatd Wii Remote. Refer to the configuration section for more details.	Shmorgen
