Dolphin is a complimentary and open up-source video game console emulator for GameCube and Wii[27] that runs on Windows, Linux, MacOS, and Android.[28]

It had its inaugural release in 2003 as freeware for Windows. Dolphin was the first GameCube emulator that could successfully run commercial games. After troubled evolution in the first years, Dolphin became free and open-source software and subsequently gained support for Wii emulation. Presently afterwards, the emulator was ported to Linux[29] and macOS.[30] As mobile hardware got more powerful over the years, running Dolphin on Android became a viable choice.

Dolphin has been well received in the IT and video gaming media for its loftier compatibility, steady evolution progress, the number of available features, and the ability to play games with graphical improvements over the original consoles.

Evolution [edit]

Origins (2003–2006) [edit]

Dolphin was first released in September 2003[31] by Argentinian programmer Henrik Rydgård (ector) and developer F|RES[i] [2] as an experimental GameCube emulator that could boot up and run commercial games. Audio was not yet emulated, and the overall performance quality was very poor. Many games crashed on start upwards or barely ran at all; average speed was from 2 to twenty frames per 2d (FPS). Its name refers to the evolution code name for the GameCube.[32]

Dolphin was officially discontinued temporarily in December 2004, with the developers releasing version i.01 every bit the final version of the emulator.[33] The developers later revived the project in October 2005.[34]

Open up source, Wii emulation, and 2.0 release (2007–2010) [edit]

Dolphin became an open-source project on 13 May 2007[29] [35] when the developers released the source code publicly on a SVN repository on Google Lawmaking nether the GPL-2.0-only license.[29] At this point, the emulator had basic Wii emulation implemented, express Linux compatibility and a new GUI using wxWidgets.[29] The preview builds and unofficial SVN builds were released with their revision number (e.yard., RXXXX) rather than version numbers (east.g., 1.03).[36] [37] As with previous builds, differences between consecutive builds are typically modest.[38]

Every bit of February 2009, the software was able to successfully kicking and run the official Wii System Menu v1.0. Shortly later, almost all versions of the Wii system software became bootable.

By Apr 2009, most commercial games, GameCube and Wii alike, could exist fully played, albeit with modest problems and errors, with a big number of games running with few or no defects. Adjustments to the emulator had allowed users to play select games at full speed for the beginning time, sound was dramatically improved, and the graphical capabilities were made more consequent bated from minor problems.[forty]

By belatedly Oct 2009, several new features were incorporated into the emulator, such as automated frame-skipping, which increased the performance of the emulator, as well as increased stability of the emulator overall.[41] Too improved was the Netplay feature of the emulator, which allowed players to play multiplayer GameCube and Wii games online with friends, as long as the game did non require a Wii Remote. The emulator's GUI was besides reworked to make it more than user-friendly, and the DirectX plug-in received farther work.[42]

On 12 April 2010 Dolphin 2.0 was released.[43] [28]

3.0 and three.5 releases (2010–2012) [edit]

By the cease of November 2010, the developers had fixed well-nigh of the sound issues such as crackling, added compatibility with more games, and increased the overall emulation speed and accuracy.[ citation needed ]

In June 2011, version 3.0 was released.[44] Strange user interface behavior, crashes, graphical glitches and other various issues were fixed. The release notes state that the majority of games "run perfectly or with minor bugs."[44] The release featured redesigned configuration windows, an improved LLE sound engine, new translations, added support for the Wii Remote speaker, EFB format alter emulation, graphics debugger and audio dumping among several other new features. The three.0 release removed the plug-in interface in order to "permit for a much ameliorate integration with the other parts of Dolphin." The developers as well added a Direct3D eleven video dorsum-end and an XAudio2 audio dorsum-terminate.[44]

On 25 December 2012, version 3.5 of Dolphin was released, featuring support for emulating the GameCube Broadband Adapter and Microphone accessories. It introduced a FreeBSD port, free replacement for the DSP firmware, and the WBFS file format.[45] [46]

Port to Android and 4.0 release (2013) [edit]

On 6 April 2013, the Dolphin evolution team released the first builds for Google's Android mobile operating system.[47] Every bit of September 2013, only a handful of devices contained the hardware to back up OpenGL ES 3.0, with Google officially supporting the standard in software since July 2014 with the introduction of Android 4.3 Jelly Bean. Games run at an average of 1 FPS. The developer has cited the Samsung Galaxy S4 as one of the first phones capable of playing games at higher speeds, simply even it would have considerable performance limitations.

On 22 September 2013, version iv.0 of Dolphin was released, featuring back-end improvements to OpenGL rendering and OpenAL sound, broader controller support, networking enhancements, and functioning tweaks for macOS and Linux builds.[48] [49] Months later, versions 4.0.1[50] [51] and 4.0.2.[52] [53] were released, fixing modest bugs.

Drib of legacy technologies, accuracy improvements, and 5.0 release (2013–2016) [edit]

On 12 October 2013 (4.0-155), Direct3D nine back up was removed from the project, leaving Direct3D 11 and OpenGL as the two remaining video dorsum-ends. The Dolphin Team explained this, stating that the plug-in was "inherently flawed" and that trying to evade its several flaws "wasted time and slowed evolution."[54]

On xix May 2014, the Dolphin Team appear that 32-flake support for Windows and Linux would exist dropped.[10] The Dolphin Squad stated that it was becoming increasingly difficult to maintain the 32-chip builds, and that the 32-bit releases simply offered an inferior experience compared to their 64-bit counterparts. Furthermore, the vast majority of their users were already using 64-flake CPUs, and most users of 32-bit builds were 64-bit compatible withal were using 32-fleck by mistake. The combination of these factors fabricated 32-flake back up unnecessary. 32-bit Android builds suffered from like problems, simply ARMv7 support[55] remained for another year until the AArch64 JIT was ready and devices were bachelor.[xi]

Game Boy Advance–GameCube linking is among the features emulated by Dolphin 5.0

Throughout 2014, several features were implemented into Dolphin, including disc loading emulation, native support for GameCube controllers,[19] perfect sound emulation,[56] and bug fixes for problems which had been nowadays since the emulator's earliest days.[57] [58] [59] Memory direction unit (MMU) improvements immune many games to boot and work properly for the starting time time.[57] Improvements towards the emulator besides allowed for information technology to run well on Android using the Nvidia Tegra processor, albeit with small difficulties.[60]

In coordination with the developers of the VBA-Grand Game Boy Advance emulator, support for linking GameCube and Game Boy Advance games was implemented into Dolphin in March 2015.[threescore]

On 25 May 2015 – the Dolphin Development team appear that they had successfully re-licensed the code base from "GPL-2.0-merely" to "GPL-ii.0-or-subsequently" in club to better license compatibility with other Costless and open-source projects and exist able to share and commutation lawmaking with them.[13] [xiv] [27]

In Baronial 2015, the Dolphin developers announced further improvements with audio[61] [62] and throughout December 2015 the Dolphin project stock-still audio issues on TR Wii Remotes.[63] 2 months later, in February 2016, a DirectX 12 back-end was mainlined after months of development.[64]

On 24 June 2016, version 5.0 of Dolphin was released, making various fixes and additions to the emulator.[iii] [65]

Mail-5.0 developments (ongoing) [edit]

Development of a Vulkan-based graphics renderer began in June 2016.[14] [66] Afterward a calendar month, the programmer announced that it is "at present feature-complete" and that it's "time for clean-ups/bug-fixing/operation work."[67] [68] Evolution of the renderer was still washed in a defended co-operative for the adjacent few months until the code was finally merged in October 2016.[69]

In September 2016, Dolphin's developers announced the emulator was at present able to kicking all official GameCube titles. The concluding title to exist supported for boot-upward, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, had been especially difficult to emulate due to the game'southward use of the retentiveness management unit of measurement.[70] [71] Triforce emulation was removed due to lack of maintenance.[72]

In March 2017, support was added for the Wii Shop Channel.[73]

Two experimental features, both of which never reached maturity, were removed in May 2017: The DirectX 12 renderer – which found a suitable replacement in the Vulkan dorsum-end – and the alternative CPU emulator JIT IL.[74] [75]

Standing this year's earlier work on graphics performance-related matters, Dolphin developers implemented a solution for the long-standing problem known every bit shader compilation stuttering.[76] The stuttering is caused by the emulator waiting for the graphics driver to compile shaders required for new environments or objects. The solution that the Ubershaders – in development since 2015[77] – present to the problem was to emulate the Wii'southward and GameCube's rendering pipeline by way of an interpreter running on the host system's graphics processor itself until a specialized shader has been compiled and tin can be used for future frames, at a lower cost to functioning.[76]

18 August 2017 marks the culmination of piece of work started in late 2016 when the cross-platform MMORPG Dragon Quest Ten was added to the list of playable games just ii months earlier back up for the online functionality of the Wii version was dropped.[78] The improver relied on a number of features that had been previously added to the emulator just for the sake of accuracy, such as support for the Wii Shop Aqueduct. Support for Wii File System, an encrypted file system that was originally designed for the Wii U, was likewise added after a rigorous amount of reverse engineering.[78]

In the first half of 2018 Dolphin'southward developers deprecated the wxWidgets GUI toolkit and replaced it with one based on Qt considering the original GUI toolkit'due south limitations stood in the way of implementing new features.[6] [7] [8] Among the other newly introduced features were Asynchronous Shader Compilation like to Ishiiruka,[79] an automobile-update feature,[80] and integration with Discord.[81]

In the summertime of 2018 Dolphin's Vulkan renderer was brought to macOS via MoltenVK[82] and the Android version was brought dorsum to Google Play with monthly updates.[83] In Apr 2019, Dolphin added 3 new features; unification of common video backends, a NetPlay Server browser, and Wii MotionPlus emulation. The DirectX 12 renderer was also brought back.

During the timeframe betwixt November 2019 and January 2020 support for Windows 10 on ARM has been added. According to the developers, "[i]t turned out to exist quite easy" because support for AArch64 hardware has already been present as office of the Android port.[17]

In the May and June progress report for 2020 the Dolphin team unveiled a new compression format which was built upon the WIA format called RVZ.[84] It is claimed that the new format compared to the NKit format RVZ is able to have properly emulated load times.[85] Additionally it is claimed that while remaining lossless it comes very close to the filesizes of scrubbed WIA and GCZ files.[85]

In the December 2020 and January 2021 progress study the Dolphin team reports that back up had been added for Nintendo DS communication. While they state that this definitely would not lead to Dolphin and DS emulator operability, with concrete hardware or with emulator, it fixes a crash nowadays in Driver: San Francisco and other games that endeavour to initiate DS communications.[86]

In July 2021, the Dolphin team appear the integration of the mGBA emulator into Dolphin, assuasive a Game Boy Accelerate emulator to run within Dolphin simultaneously to simulate GameCube-GBA connectivity. In addition to supporting transfer of data to and from emulated GBA titles, up to four Game Boy Accelerate instances can be simultaneously active in Dolphin at in one case, making multiplayer in games that require the GBA such equally The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures and Concluding Fantasy Crystal Chronicles feasible within Dolphin locally and via netplay.[87]

Features [edit]

Peripherals connected to the Bluetooth-enabled Wii remotes also work with Dolphin

Features of Dolphin include the ability to beginning games regardless of region, record tool-assisted speedruns,[88] [89] [xc] and the employ of cheat codes with Activeness Replay and Gecko. Functions of the original GameCube controllers and Wii Remotes can be mapped to PC controllers.[91] [92] The emulator allows for the utilise of real GameCube controllers through the employ of a USB adapter[93] [19] and Wii Remotes through Bluetooth connectedness.[18] Controller expansions are also supported, including the Wii MotionPlus adapter, Wii Nunchuk, Classic controller, Guitar, Drums, and Turntable.[94]

Two kinds of network play are supported by Dolphin: Emulated local multiplayer[95] and Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.[96] The first but works among Dolphin users. It applies to games that past default have no online pick. The second kind is for online gameplay for WFC supported Wii games with other Dolphin users every bit well every bit real Wii users.[48] [97] [96]

Game progress can exist saved on virtual GameCube Memory Cards, emulated Wii wink memory, and salve states. Dolphin features a Memory Card Manager which allows transfer of save files to and from virtual GameCube retention cards.[98]

In conjunction with an integrated Game Boy Advance emulator, Dolphin supports linking GameCube and Game Boy Accelerate titles.[87]

Graphical improvements [edit]

Demonstration of anti-aliasing using simple shapes

Similar many other console emulators on PC, Dolphin supports arbitrary resolutions,[59] [99] [100] whereas the GameCube and Wii only back up up to 480p.[101]

Dolphin can load customized texture maps.[27] These can also exist of college resolution than the original textures.[102] The emulator also has the ability to consign a game's textures in order for graphic artists to change them.

Dolphin tin output stereoscopic 3D graphics on whatsoever platform Dolphin runs. Special hardware such as Nvidia 3D Vision is likewise supported. The ability to play games in stereoscopic 3D is a feature the original consoles never had,[103] although Nintendo did originally plan to release a stereoscopic 3D add together-on screen for the GameCube.[104]

Boosted features to farther enhance the graphics quality are besides available. Dolphin supports spatial anti-aliasing, anisotropic filtering, postal service-processing pixel shaders, and a widescreen hack for forcing widescreen output on games that do not support it natively.[105] Games tin can as well achieve higher-than-intended frames per 2d.[106]

Reception [edit]

The Dolphin emulator has been well received by the gaming community, with the program'due south ability to run games at a higher resolution than the GameCube's native 480i and Wii's native 480p resolution receiving item praise from the gaming community.[107] [99] [100] [108] PC Gamer editor Wes Fenlon called it "one of the merely emulators to make many games better" and praised it for continually "making major, sometimes huge improvements to compatibility and performance".[35] Wololo.net praised the system'south high compatibility.[109]

Dolphin has been used by some people as a tool to mitigate certain shortcomings for gamers; in 2012, business owner and father Mike Hoye, who had been playing The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker with his daughter and realized that the game referred to the main character as a male individual regardless of the inputted name, changed all of the game's cutscene dialogue text to refer to a girl instead of a boy by editing information technology through a hex editor, testing out the game'south ISO using Dolphin.[110] The emulator's Netplay feature has been described past ArsTechnica to be serving equally an alternative to the discontinued Nintendo Wi-Fi Connexion.[96]

As of March 2017[update], Dolphin has approximately 50000 daily active users, according to Dolphin's opt-in analytics.[27]

Variants & forks [edit]

Dolphin Triforce [edit]

A version of Dolphin fabricated to emulate the Triforce arcade organization titled Dolphin Triforce was in evolution by the Dolphin team, simply was eventually disabled subsequently development priorities shifted and the feature became unmaintained.[72] Downloads of Dolphin Triforce are however available from the website[111] and the source code is available from GitHub in a defended repository.[112]

Dolphin VR [edit]

Dolphin VR is a third-party project aimed to extend Dolphin with the power to play games "in Virtual Reality with accurate life-size calibration, full FOV [field of view], a 3D HUD, contained aiming, and the power to await around."[113] HTC Vive and Oculus Rift are supported.[114]

PC Gamer tested a few games with Dolphin VR. Metroid Prime and F-Nix GX received specially high praise with ane editor feeling "childlike wonder when playing Metroid Prime in VR" and another stating that "F-Zip [is] the matter that sold me on Dolphin VR".[114]

The latest release is 5.0[115] and the source code is hosted on GitHub.[116] The Free Software Foundation maintains the position that GPL software cannot be combined with Oculus SDK'southward license.[117]

DolphiniOS [edit]

DolphiniOS is a third-party fork[118] of Dolphin for Apple iOS.[119] It is not available on the App Shop, instead being distributed through a Cydia repository for jailbroken devices, an AltStore repository, or an IPA packet for sideloading.[120] [121]

DolphiniOS used to be monetized by having beta releases be available earlier to Patreons; their Patreon programme has been paused as of 6 October 2020[update] and they merits that they are at present permanently discontinuing this practice.[122] Forth with this they also announced that the project would be going on hiatus due to the lead developer going on break.[122] [123]

The kickoff pre-release version went public on 9 December 2019[124] with the ane.0 release post-obit a calendar week afterwards.[121] Version ii.0 has been released only a month later on 9 January 2020. The two.0 version supports physical controllers, among other new features.[125] Version 3.0 was released on the 20 June 2020.[126] Notable new features include the ability to display your games in a grid, the ability to update the Wii Organization Bill of fare like on the desktop version of Dolphin, the ability to install WAD files to the Wii NAND and the ability to alter disc while the emulator is running.[126] Versions three.1.1 and 3.2.0 beta i take been released since the hiatus announcement. Rumble and motion control back up was added for DualShock 4s and DolphiniOS now functions properly for users of the Odyssey jailbreak.[127]

A writer from Wololo.cyberspace wrote regarding the operation of DolphiniOS: "On my iPad Pro x.5-inch (A10X), Mario Kart Wii works pretty well and playing through the first two tracks of the Mushroom Cup provided excellent results!"[128]

The source lawmaking is hosted on GitHub.[129]

Ishiiruka [edit]

Logo for Ishiiruka

In reaction to the removal of DirectX 9 support, Dolphin developer Tino created an unofficial fork called Ishiiruka on 18 Oct 2013.[130] The proper noun is Japanese for Dall's porpoise.[131] Although the focus is Windows with DirectX 9 and 11 support,[132] Linux versions also exist.[133] [134]

The fork attempts to remedy performance problems present in Dolphin such as microstuttering due to shader compilation.[135] Ishiiruka serves as base for the canonical client of the Super Smash Bros. Melee netplay communities Faster Melee [136] and SmashLadder.[137]

John Linneman of Eurogamer talks in the October 2016 Metroid Prime number episode of their Digital Foundry Retro video serial nigh Ishiiruka. He compares playing Metroid Prime via Ishiiruka to playing it on original hardware, Wii and GameCube, and upstream Dolphin. Linneman argues that "the benefits [of emulation] kind of outweigh any of the smaller issues that yous might encounter". He continues to point out features of Ishiiruka that "permit you to push the visuals beyond what you lot can attain using standard Dolphin. For instance, you can add lots of cool additional enhancements like depth of field, ambient occlusion, various types of colour correction and a whole lot more than […]. It's also worth noting that this version of Dolphin helps avert the shader compilation stutters that plagued the official release of the emulator and information technology leads to a much more fluid experience."[135]

As with Dolphin, development is hosted on GitHub.[138]

PrimeHack [edit]

PrimeHack is a version of Dolphin created past shiiion that has been modified to play Metroid Prime: Trilogy on PC with keyboard and mouse controls.[139] Two variants be of PrimeHack – i is based on Ishiiruka,[140] the other one on Dolphin proper.[141] The latter is as of October 2019 the focus of development[142] after it laid dormant between February and October 2019.

The source code is hosted on GitHub.[140] [141]

Yes, I'm talking about Dolphin here which has come a long way – with games like Metroid Prime benefiting greatly in the process at present. Information technology's not yet flawless, listen you lot, but the benefits kind of outweigh whatever of the smaller problems that you lot might encounter. And, of course, while the standard version of Dolphin certainly gets the chore done, I'm really playing the game here using an unofficial Ishiiruka version of Dolphin which adds a ton of unique features that permit y'all to push the visuals beyond what you tin accomplish using standard Dolphin. For instance, yous tin add lots of absurd additional enhancements like depth of field, ambient occlusion, diverse types of colour correction and a whole lot more […]. It'due south also worth noting that this version of Dolphin helps avoid the shader compilation stutters that plagued the official release of the emulator and it leads to a much more fluid experience. All effectually and every bit you tin meet the cease results are pretty much first-class the game is sharper and cleaner than always before.
