so i got melee for dolphin and extracted it only to find that it's a .gcm, i tested it to c if it wrked and it gave me a direct3D 9 video backend and it remains black screen.
ik my machine is terrible to run this stuff but it has barely the minimun settings to atleast get it to show up and then slow down heavily during game.
however my friend has a comp 10x greater than mine, running on 8 cores and up to date graphix card (idk the specs specifically but it's good enuf to run far cry 3 on highest graphix)
to skip to my point, i ran the .gcm on his comp and yields the same result, i changed the extension to .iso and to no avail. it will still give direct3D xx and remain in the black screen.
if any1 knows a solution to get it running, i'd appreciate it and a million thx in advance in case i don't say ty l8r on.
side note: i dl'd soul calibur 2 to test it as it came out as a .iso by default and it shows up on my comp, main menu, practice mode, etc.
