The REAL F-Zero AX (Triforce) now fully playable on Dolphin!!

Описание: You remember that time I made a video showcasing F-Zero AX running in a broken state in an old Triforce-supported version of Dolphin?
(Here if you haven't seen it:    • How it was to run F-ZERO AX in Dolphin Tri...  )

Well...brace yourselves for actually playing the game, because crediar returned out of nowhere and made a version of Dolphin 5.0 that can run Triforce games, and while Mario Kart Arcade GP/Virtua Striker were playable before, this is the first time that F-Zero AX is now actually, fully playable in an emulator!!

Shoutouts to ‪@MrThunderwing‬ for letting me know about this in the comments for the last F-Zero AX video I made!

The changing aspect ratio and widescreen hack was me playing with that live, as a way to showcase this being run on an emulator while showing the proper AX menus and such being there as part of proof that it is the Triforce version (card reader support, menu sounds, the 3D renders for racers).

I found a pre-compiled build of this new Triforce version out there (Emuline), but while I don't get to upload this one I used myself (or that word starts spreading and this version in a compiled form can be found easier while searching), I'll be providing the source for this Dolphin version by crediar that adds this Triforce support.

2025 EDIT: Since the above link is dead, I'll link below a guide on how to set it up in Dolphin, which includes a mirror to the Dolphin build requires [and patches to install on dolphin to make sure it runs - the guide is from 2023 but still goes through most steps you'd need]

A guide on how to run this will be something I'll try to do in the following days, but for now, what you should know (if you can get these) is that it only takes configuring the Gamecube controller, swapping port 1 and 2 to AM BASEBOARD (and enable that too in SP1), make sure that the Motor Initializing Disable patch is enabled in game settings for FZAX, and you should be good to go!
