A little background: Android has 8 controller setup, 4 gamecube pads and 4 wiimote pads. When the static GCPadNew.ini and wiimotenew.ini is created, pads 0-3 are gc 1-4, and 4-7 are wii 1-4. Problem was the settings set wii controllers as pads 1-4, instead of 4-7. So any setting for wiimote1, was set for gc2(padID 1). Which is why the only wiimote to work was 4, since it mapped to padID 4, which is actually wiimote1.
Some controllers have axes that are stuck to values like 0.5 or 1.
Starting with PR #6123, when you press a control to map, Dolphin will
immediately think that such an axis is the axis that you want to map.
This commit fixes that issue (https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/10909)
Since we don't have proper confuguration file of what to include/exclude
in the backup, this better be disabled because it will lead to unexpected
state. This will solve any issue that was keep hapenning even after fresh
install of the emulator until you manually clear the app data.
Before we used different way of identifying which settings menu to
show, someotimes we used the section name, other times we used the
settings file name. This one replaces all those different ways by just
one way based on a menu tag which is more clear and easy to follow.
Makes the enum values strongly-typed and prevents the identifiers from
polluting the PowerPC namespace. This also cleans up the parameters of
some functions where we were accepting an ambiguous int type and
expecting the correct values to be passed in.
Now those parameters accept a PowerPC::CPUCore type only, making it
immediately obvious which values should be passed in. It also turns out
we were storing these core types into other structures as plain ints,
which have also been corrected.
As this type is used directly with the configuration code, we need to
provide our own overloaded insertion (<<) and extraction (>>) operators
in order to make it compatible with it. These are fairly trivial to
implement, so there's no issue here.
A minor adjustment to TryParse() was required, as our generic function
was doing the following:
N tmp = 0;
which is problematic, as custom types may not be able to have that
assignment performed (e.g. strongly-typed enums), so we change this to:
N tmp;
which is sufficient, as the value is attempted to be initialized
immediately under that statement.
Deduplicates code, and gets rid of some problems the old code had
(such as: bad performance when calling native functions, only one
disc showing up for multi-disc games, Wii banners being low-res,
unnecessarily much effort being needed for adding more metadata).
Given this is actually a part of the Host interface, this should be
placed with it.
While we're at it, turn it into an enum class so that we don't dump its
contained values into the surrounding scope. We can also make
Host_Message take the enum type itself directly instead of taking a
general int value.
After this, it'll be trivial to divide out the rest of Common.h and
remove the header from the repository entirely
