GraphicsBool is used by the panes in the Graphics config window to
create checkboxes that change their associated config setting, and
update their own state when something else changes the config setting.
Despite its current name nothing about this class is particular to the
Graphics window, so renaming it to ConfigBool better reflects its
purpose. This should also make it less confusing when ConfigBools are
eventually added to the other config windows.
In older versions of Dolphin GraphicsBoolEx was used to create a pair of
radio buttons selecting one of Virtual XFB and Real XFB, but this was
removed with the introduction of Hybrid XFB in 65cd085f.
In the meantime GraphicsRadioInt was introduced to allow for Graphics
radio buttons with multiple options, so GraphicsBoolEx is now redundant.
Before, any call of Settings::SetDebugModeEnabled(true) would show it. This means that if the debugging UI is enabled, but the user manually closed the code widget, then toggling any option on the interface pane (such as "Pause on Focus Loss") would cause the code widget to reappear. Additionally, closing and reopening dolphin did not call SetDebugModeEnabled, so the code widget did not reappear in that case (it only appeared after touching the interface pane). This is a bit silly, so now only enabling the debugger does it.
This also somewhat resolves an inconsistency introduced by the previous commit: prior to it, --debugger would call SetDebugModeEnabled(true) and thus show the code pane; after these commits, it does not, as it acts like a config change. This is a behavior difference, but not a particularly important one.
Before, Settings::SetDebugModeEnabled was used; this calls SetBaseOrCurrent() which will usually permanently change the base configuration setting for the debugger to true. Thus, the debugger would remain active even if the --debugger command line option was removed. Now, it remains active only for the current run, like other command-line options.
Note that SetBaseOrCurrent is also used by the "Show Debugging UI" option under Options -> Interface; this means that if the debugger is turned off (or off and then back on) by the user while --debugger is specified, this will be reset to whatever the base configuration had when Dolphin is closed and reopened. This behavior is consistent with the rest of the UI.
To my understanding, the --debugger option is something from 5.0 stable/DolphinWx where there was no way to toggle the debug UI in the settings (and the command-line option was the only way of enabling it). It's less useful nowadays.
See https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/13232; this was introduced in 7dde0c3c31. Apparently, providing a parent for a widget that is not visible makes your new widget visible when the parent is later made visible, in addition to managing the deletion of the widget; the documentation does not specify this (only that if the parent is visible you need to explicitly show it).
The m_checkbox_lock_mouse QCheckBox was only conditionally being added
to the layout, leaving it unmanaged and leaking
Setting the parent will allow it to be managed.
The m_verbosity_debug button was only conditionally being added as
widget, this was done in order to hide the object, but this left it
unmanaged.
Unconditionally adding it to the layout and controlling it's visibility
will resolve these issues
Added AchievementManager class. Upon startup (currently only in DolphinQt), logs into RetroAchievements with the login credentials stored in achievements.ini.

The QByteArray returned by QString::toUtf8() was being freed so the char
pointer was pointing to freed memory.
Found via ASan, didn't notice any issues during normal runtime.
This was triggered after hitting a key combo with alt (ex. toggle
fullscreen) probably happens with others
Adds the rcheevos library from RetroAchievements to the Dolphin Externals as a submodule. Change was verified to import correctly and build both via Visual Studio and via cmake ninja.
Also works around a bug where CMake's ninja generator doesn't properly handle ||'s on POST_BUILD commands, making the || apply to the whole build like `<link> && custom0 || custom1`
Will manually controlling both an accelerometer and a gyroscope at the
same time be reasonable to do? No idea. Was this easy to implement
thanks to the input override system? Yes.
Fixes https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/12443.
This gets rid of a blocking operation, improving performance and fixing
https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/12893.
This also makes us no longer directly access the state of certain UI
elements from the CPU thread, which probably wasn't thread-safe but
doesn't seem to have caused any observable issues so far.
This resulted in the labels being solid black even when audio stretching is disabled the first time the settings are opened, but then properly being greyed out after changing a setting (even the audio backend or DSP emulation engine, not just whether audio stretching is enabled).
Before these changes you could tell Dolphin to convert a game file into the same format it is already in, leading to the FileDialog using the input path as the default destination path
An unsuspecting user could then click Save and Dolphin would try to convert the input file by writing the destination file on top of it... leading to an I/O error and the input file being entirely removed
This avoids a pseudo infinite loop where CodeWidget::UpdateCallstack
would lock the CPU in order to read the call stack, causing the CPU to
call Host_UpdateDisasmDialog because it's transitioning from running to
pausing, causing Host::UpdateDisasmDialog to be emitted, causing
CodeWidget::Update to be called, once again causing
CodeWidget::UpdateCallstack to be called, repeating the cycle.
Dolphin didn't go completely unresponsive during this, because
Host_UpdateDisasmDialog schedules the emitting of Host::UpdateDisasmDialog
to happen on another thread without blocking, but it was stopping certain
operations like exiting emulation from working.
This fixes a problem I was having where using frame advance with the
debugger open would frequently cause panic alerts about invalid addresses
due to the CPU thread changing MSR.DR while the host thread was trying
to access memory.
To aid in tracking down all the places where we weren't properly locking
the CPU, I've created a new type (in Core.h) that you have to pass as a
reference or pointer to functions that require running as the CPU thread.
- Cancel doesn't shut down anymore.
Allowing it to be used multiple times thoughout the life of
the WorkQueue
- Remove Clear, so we only have Cancel semantics
- Add IsCancelling so work items can abort early if cancelling
- Replace m_cancelled and m_thread.joinable() guars with m_shutdown.
- Rename Flush to WaitForCompletion (As it's ambiguous if a function
called flush should be blocking or not)
- Add documentation
CMakeSettings.json is a Visual Studio only extention to cmake that isn't
supported anywhere else. Not even Visual Studio Code.
So we set CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH inside DolphinQt's CMakeLists.txt instead.
Almost all the virtual functions in Renderer are part of dolphin's
"graphics api abstraction layer", which has slowly formed over the
last decade or two.
Most of the work was done previously with the introduction of the
various "AbstractX" classes, associated with texture cache cleanups
and implementation of newer graphics APIs (Direct3D 12, Vulkan, Metal).
We are simply taking the last step and yeeting these functions out
of Renderer.
This "AbstractGfx" class is now completely agnostic of any details
from the flipper/hollywood GPU we are emulating, though somewhat
specialized.

We've decided this track will never be used in the future. Releases will
continue using the "beta" branch internally, though we'll have the
user-visible strings use a different name instead.
(Note: Dolphin provided builds have always defaulted to 'beta' as the
auto-update track, so anyone who set 'stable' did so manually.)
This should be a fairly easy merge, assuming I didn’t mess anything up. TL:DR no one uses it and it’s not great.
Boot from DVD Backup is an ancient feature with origins in the Megacommit. Back then, GameCube and Wii games were quite large relative to drives of the time. For example, in 2008, the most common hard drive sizes were 320GB and 512GB. On the 320GB drive I personally had at the time, as little as 42 Wii ISOs could have filled it entirely! And that’s ignoring any other files one might want to put onto a drive. Backup DVDs allowed users to burn relatively cheap DVD media and store their GameCube and Wii dumps in a Dolphin accessible way that didn’t eat into their precious HDD space. It had compromises, even then, but in 2008… I mean honestly users probably wouldn’t even notice those compromises with how Dolphin barely even worked at all back then.
Obviously, today the storage space concerns are not as big of an issue. According to seagate the average hard drive it sells today is 8TB. For typical laptops purchased now, the -minimum- selection for storage is usually 1TB. You can even buy a name brand 4TB external hard drive for $100. GC and Wii ISOs are not as big as they once were, relatively anyway. Plus flash drives and SD cards are super cheap and way faster than disc drives ever were. For anyone that has limited drive space, removable flash media can fulfill this offloading role far better than backup DVD media ever could.
Also no one has DVD drives anymore. That’s kind of an important detail.
But to see if Booting from DVD Backup even still worked, I decided to give it a try. I have an ASUS BW-16D1HT, a badass Bluray XL reading and burning drive, connected to my Windows 11 Threadripper 5975WX machine. A super fast drive on a super fast machine is as good as it possibly can get for this feature. So I bought a spindle of DVD-Rs, burned a couple of discs and gave it a try. Surprisingly, it does still work. However, as expected, it introduces a lot of stuttering. Testing Prime 1 and Prime 3, in both games stuttering was introduced whenever the DVD Drive had to suddenly seek. Spikes of 50ms occurred constantly, but I observed 150ms and even over 1000ms stutters! The worst was a three second stutter, when loading Elysia in Prime 3. I could even hear the stutters - any time the drive suddenly made a harsh seeking noise, the game would have a hard stutter. It worked but, it has some serious compromises.
Boot from DVD Backup isn’t great, using removable flash media or external hard drives is a FAR better option for anyone with limited storage space today, and no one can even use this feature anymore because their computers don’t even have disc drives. It’s time for Boot from DVD Backup to go!
So I did my best on the cleanup but I’m bound to have left some bits. Especially in translation - I didn’t get any warnings or anything there that could help point me to where to clean that up. Please review!
This generated a warning on GCC about the operation being potentially undefined (-Wsequence-point). I'm not sure if that was actually the case, but either way it is a mistake.
We should expose Enable Controller Input and the turbo settings for
GBA just like we do for GameCube controllers and Wii Remotes.
I just forgot about it when implementing the GBA TAS input window.
Use: callstack(0x80000000).
!callstack(value) works as a 'does not contain'.
Add strings to expr.h conditionals.
Use quotations: callstack("anim") to check symbols/name.
This affected the memory and registers widgets (and possibly others). I'm pretty sure it regressed in 5f629abd8b.
The SetCodeVisible line is a new fix, but the equivalent already existed in the memory widget.
The call to analyzer.Analyze breaks when it attempts to read an instruction, as it eventually tries to read memory when Memory::m_pRAM is nullptr. Trying to read when execution is not paused in general seems like a bad idea (especially as analyzer.Analyze uses PowerPC::TryReadInstruction which can update icache - this is probably still a problem).
When emulated GBAs were added to Dolphin, it was possible to control them
using the GC TAS input window. (Z was mapped to Select.) Unaware of this,
I broke the functionality in b296248.
To make it possible to control emulated GBAs using TAS input again,
I'm adding a proper TAS input window for GBAs, with a real Select button
and no analog controls.
`ImGui::GetIO` performs an assertion that a context exists, and if one doesn't then things will likely crash. Unfortunately this crash is hard to consistently reproduce.
This lets the TAS input code use a higher-level interface for
overriding inputs instead of having to fiddle with raw bits.
WiiTASInputWindow in particular was messy with how much
controller code it had to re-implement.
Before, only the symbols box would update. However, if you edit the symbol of a function in the call stack (which seems like something that would happen reasonably often while debugging), the call stack would be out of date until it was updated by clicking on it. Callers and calls were more of an edge case; for them to be out of date, you would need to right-click on an instruction in a function other than the one containing the currently-selected instruction (though it would also affect recursive functions).
Texture dumping can already be done using VideoCommon's system (and in fact the same setting already enabled *both* of these). Dumping objects/TEV stages/texture fetches doesn't currently have an equivalent, but could be added to the FIFO player instead.
Because of the previous commit, this is needed to stop DolphinQt from
forgetting that the user pressed ignore whenever any part of the config
is changed.
This commit also changes the behavior a bit on DolphinQt: "Ignore for
this session" now applies to the current emulation session instead of
the current Dolphin launch. This matches how it already worked on
Android, and is in my opinion better because it means the user won't
lose out on important panic alerts in a game becase they played another
game first that had repeated panic alerts that they wanted to ignore.
For Android, this commit isn't necessary, but it makes the code cleaner.
* 'hangle' was a typo
* Light colors include an alpha value, so they should be 8 characters, not 6
* The XF command format adds 1 to the count internally (so 0 is one word), but we need to subtract that back to produce a valid command
* XFMEM_POSTMATRICES was calculating the row by subtracting XFMEM_POSMATRICES (POS vs POST), resulting in incorrect row numbering
For a few years now, I've been thinking it would be nice to make Dolphin
support reading Wii games in the format they come in when you download
them from the Wii U eShop. The Wii U eShop has some good deals on Wii
games (Metroid Prime Trilogy especially is rather expensive if you try
to buy it physically!), and it's the only place right now where you can
buy Wii games digitally.
Of course, Nintendo being Nintendo, next year they're going to shut down
this only place where you can buy Wii games digitally. I kind of wish I
had implemented this feature earlier so that people would've had ample
time to buy the games they want, but... better late than never, right?
I used MIT-licensed code from the NOD library as a reference when
implementing this. None of the code has been directly copied, but
you may notice that the names of the struct members are very similar.
c1635245b8/lib/DiscIONFS.cpp
* moves dolphin-specific settings out of Base.props
* creates exports.props for externals, allowing to easily import
individual Externals
* corrects some cruft that accumulated and probably contributed
to msbuild overbuilding
Before, Free Look would accept background input by default, which means it was easy to accidentally move the camera while typing in another window. (This is because HotkeyScheduler::Run sets the input gate to `true` after it's copied the hotkey state, supposedly for other threads (though `SetInputGate` uses a `thread_local` variable so I'm not 100% sure that's correct) and for the GBA windows (which always accept unfocused input, presumably because they won't be focused normally).
