Most dvd/cd drives cant read gc or wii games. I think you need some kind of special drive or the gamecube drive itself.

Well you can rip or extract the files in GC/Wii games by right clicking the game on the game list. click the file system tab, then right click the file and select extract.
Textures can be dumped with either the OpenGL or DirectX plugin in Dolphin, by checking the box to enable dumping textures.
As for models, I'm not sure, there was a tool that was a WIP a while back that would have been able to dump models but it wasn't released afaik. I think it was cooliscool that was working on it so you can try sending him a PM inquiring about the tool.

Or the Wiiscrubber tool, it's just that Dolphin has a built in tool like Wiiscrubber so you can save yourself from downloading anything else if you are already using Dolphin.

You can still right-click on a game from the list, open the "Filesystem" tab and extract the files/folders you want from the game's ISO. You don't need to be running a game to do that.
(Also, unlike WiiScrubber / Wii Browse (IIRC), Dolphin doesn't (longer) have to look for a "key" file to work with Wii games' filesystems)

what about the other games I mentioned?
Hey, sorry for butting in, but I was having the same sort of problem as well, only a bit different. I wanted to extract some music and video files, and I think I succeeded, only I have no idea how to play them. The audio are in .ssm or .hps format, and the videos are in .h4m Is there a way to convert them to something tangible?
Thanks.
By the way, I use GCtool instead of Dolphin, but I guess it's the same.

Use the vgmstream plugin for Winamp. It can play a variety of GameCube music files, including .ssm and .hps. I am assuming you are trying to play music from Super Smash Bros. Melee.
Yes, I know this is an old post.

You will need to play around with some files in order to get vgmstream to work.
