Eternal Darkness Now Playable Again On Dolphin
Dolphin, the popular Gamecube and Wii emulator, has just introduced an update (release 2412) that addresses a longstanding issue with Silicon Knights' Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem.
Key Points:
- Issue Details: The game would hang on boot instead of loading normally, an issue first introduced in release 2409.
- Root Cause: A problematic race condition that resulted from improving cycle delay in Dolphin for other games like Metroid Prime, Resident Evil Zero, and The Force Unleashed II.
- Fix Approach: The emulator team opted for a game-specific patch to change a troublesome function, enabling the issue's resolution without affecting performance further.
This fix has been automatically implemented in all regional variants of the game.
