Tutorial: Running MK:Armageddon on Gamecube/Wii emulator

Post by wiggo »

This tutorial will help you to run MK:Armageddon on Gamecube/Wii emulator Dolphin.

NOTE: I run that game using MSI GX623 (gaming series) laptop. It's mediocre gaming laptop nowadays. It's specifications are:
Processor: Intel Core Duo P7350 2.0 GHz (supports SSE 4.1)
Memory (RAM): 4 GB
GPU: Ati Radeon HD 4670 Mobility

So if your rig by any chance are better/worse you can also get better/worse game performance results.


The speed I get is about 80 - 100% of original game speed. In some certain arenas it drops a bit but game is still fully playable.


So, things you'll need:
1. Gamecube/Wii emulator Dolphin. The newest version is v3.0. You can download it from here:
http://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/files ... -win32.exe

2. WAD file made for MK:Armageddon. The file has been attached to this post.

3. MK:Armageddon game.

STEP 1.
Run emulator. Go to Tools/Install WAD.

STEP 2.
Select your downloaded MK:A.WAD file. It will take about about a second or two to install it.

STEP 3.
Run your game and enjoy. The easiest way to do this is to open your game's ISO through File/Open.

Here's a video tutorial and performance running game (neither of them made by me):

Game is modable using Dumping/Loading texture features of emulator. Tutorial how to do it you can find here:

Hello I am not trying to be rude or anything just want to clarify that I was the original person to get this working and was not credited at all. 88galaga actually stole the link from my youtube post and took the credit as his own. If you look at the date on my video and the 2nd page of the comments you will see he thanked me for the instructions then went on to steal what I had worked so hard to do. The megaupload link was also created my me as seen here.

Although I do feel I was ripped off on this whole situation. I took the time to recreate and Re upload the wad file. Here is the new link for those who still want to play MKA on there emu.

I would be more than happy to do that. I tried to attach the file and upload it 3 times but it didn't appear to work.

Try uploading it as a zip archive and give me the error message if you are getting one.

Ok I will give that a try. Still didn't work. When I click "add the file" a small window pops up on the left hand side and says uploading. Then after it appears to upload the window just closes and that's it. It doesn't give an error or anything.

Look at the status of the post, there should be something. The window itself will never tell you File uploaded. If it was uploaded correctly, then you could see it under the edit Text box.

The reason why you can't upload it is because file is bigger than 1 Mb. A little message appears on top of your post in post editor.

Also, I'm sorry for not crediting you for the invented method of running MK:A. I just found a that video that emulator needs a special WAD file for the game and just wrote the tutorial. Sorry again.

I attached the file to the very first post so that everything is in one place. Hope that's OK with everybody. This will hopefully be helpful to a lot of people.

Awesome. Glad it's uploaded.@ Wiggo no worries the tut looks great. It wasn't you I was ranting about it was the original person that took it off my youtube page. You were not able to credit me cause you just didn't know and that's understandable.
