Q: When I try to load a game I get the error: Failed to load plugin Plugins\DSP.dll I have that plugin, so why wont it work?
I try to load Super Smash bros. brawl and it says : Can't find "WII/masterkey.bin" where do I get this bin from?
A: You need a wiimasterkey.bin file in order for Dolphin to decrypt the ROM. It is illegal to use one that is not yours, you must rip it from your own Wii console.
No one here can "legally" point to where you can get it. One word:'Google'
Since it is illegal to tell people where to get wiimasterkey.bin, could somebody tell us how to rip it from our own Wii? I know that I have a wii and I'd like to be able to rip a copy of the master key so I can use it.
i get a error saying: direct3d device creation failed
This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
where do i put my masterkey? and how do i do it.
This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect.
when i open Super smash brothers brawl i get a black screen, any solutions?
