Runs The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
~15 FPS in-game with heavy drops during shader building, Windows Start menu blocked while running, first cutscene audio
What happened
After launching the game, I noticed three issues:
- Performance: once I have control of the character, the game runs at roughly 15 FPS. FPS also drops sharply whenever shaders are being built.
- System impact: while the emulator is running, several Windows services become unresponsive. For example, pressing the Win key doesn't open the Start menu.
- Audio: the sound of the game's first cutscene progressively desyncs from the video; the longer it plays, the bigger the offset.
How far they got
Reached the first cutscene and gained control of the character, but ran at ~15 FPS.
Steps to reproduce
1. Launch the game in the emulator.
2. Watch the first cutscene: the audio drifts out of sync over time.
3. Take control of the character: FPS drops to ~15, and sharply while shaders build.
4. While the game is running, press the Win key: the Start menu doesn't respond.
