Help with Dolphin and WinZip

[mountainflea66]

I don't know anything about this emulation or extracting file stuff, so please be basic with any help.

I downloaded the dolphin emulator, and I can open it (it says "Dolphin 2.0" across the top of the window). I downloaded the super smash bros. melee rom, and it told me to download 7zip, so I did. Now I have a WinZip window open that has a list of 22 "sc-ssbm.oo1"-"sc-ssbm.022" files. There is a "system information file", an "SFV file", and then just a "File" file. I can't open anything in dolphin. It says no ISOs found, and I don't know what that means except that I can't play my game. (I tried to post some pictures to help with the description, but apparently I don't know how to do that either...)

What am I suppose to do from here? Thanks for any help.

Extract the .ISO file first before running it on the emulator.

Ok, I found one problem. I had WinZip instead of 7zip. Oops... I now have 7zip, and the files I have in 7zip are "sc-ssbm.001" and "sc-ssbm.gcm". What do I do with them?

gcm files are iso files

00# files are to be extracted via 7zip just extract the first file though, all other files in the series are automaticly read and extracted

Oh, ok. Another problem. I went to open the .gcm with dolphin, and I got an error box that says, "error loading plugins/plugin_DSP_HLE.dll: can't find file". Any help with that?

And i get a few more error messages when i click "ok" in the first error box.

Update your direct x and C++ to the latest version, as well your graphic card driver.

[mountainflea66]

Uhhhh..... Do what? Is there an easy way to do that or is it some complicated stuff?

Ok, I have downloaded both of those and I still receive the error message when trying to open the .gcm file in dolphin. Do I need to restart my computer, or re-extract the file? Or something else?

[meganova]

Run both of the installers, and wait until it finishes updating, then restart your computer.
After that, try running the emulator again.

[mountainflea66]

Ok. Installers have been run, all updates have been completed, and computer has been restart. I try to open the .gcm file in dolphin and I get these error messages "error loading plugins/plugin_DSP_HLE.dll:can't find file", "can't init DSP plugin", "couldnt init the core. Check your configuration". They appear in that order after I click "ok" on them.

[meganova]

That's weird, the emulator should be able to run without any issues IF both of your direct x and C++ has been updated, can you try 3.0 version instead?

[mountainflea66]

I downloaded the Direct-x and C++ from those links you posted, so I assume they are up-to-date... Im willing to try. Is there a link to that on this website?

[meganova]

Check the Releases section of this site, there should be a link for 3.0.
