Description

Game Name?

[Mario Strikers Charged]

Game ID? (right click the game in the game list, Properties, Info tab)

[R4QE01]

MD5 Hash? (right click the game in the game list, Properties, Verify tab, Verify Integrity button)

[8b0cd728c698950b09e4e0731f2b5969]

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

[Netplay session starts and stays with a Black Screen, with or without another person, no further progression. Happens with both the wbfs and ISO. Game will run perfectly fine locally.]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

[I've tried various property settings for the game itself with no luck. Disabling dual core does not work. Trying netplay alone does not work either.]

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

[5.0-11863]

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

[Yes and 5.0 (It would not have supported Wiimote controls if it booted through netplay anyways)]

If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)

[First found out in a version last updated about a couple weeks ago]

If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer

[Not a graphical issue to my knowledge]

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

[CPU: Ryzen 5 3600, GPU: MSI GTX 1660, OS: Windows 10, RAM:16GB DDR4]

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

[Nothing ever gets logged when attempting to load. Other Wii titles I've attempted that starts on netplay just fine to my knowledge are Fortune Street and Sonic Riders Zero Gravity. Screen shot is basically how it's stuck like when attempting to run a netplay session with this game. My personal known workaround is running the Wii system menu through netplay and selecting Mario Strikers Charged as the default ISO to load from the menu with, which was more steps than i thought it would be]

It sounds like your Wii remotes are not assigned.
Show a screenshot of your "Controllers" dialog and your "Assign Controllers" NetPlay dialog.

Can confirm it's not starting in Single Core. Can you bisect? Even if you use GC controllers just to see if it boots in older builds, it'll be enough to see what's going on.

Here's what I got for what shown in both my assign window and controller settings window. These work fine booting w/ fortune street

Yeah, it's not related to Wii Remotes. It's getting stuck super early into initialization.

I'm starting to look through builds months apart to see if I find anything that boots it on netplay. 3 so far, no luck.

after guessing several times. I did find one build(4.0-6286) that lead to this screen showing up and staying that way for not only netplay but locally as well. With or without dual core. Dolphin hangs when attempting to close.

Slight update before posting this but this is also happening with the following: 4.0-6341, 4.0-6410, 4.0-6550. With the strange oddity that 4.0-6550 only has this happen on local boots but on netplay it just shows a black screen instead, not even getting to the "loading" frozen screen, as shown in the screenshot, and does not hang when attempting to close the emulation through netplay.

Will look into more builds in my free time soon.

I might have been really dumb not remembering how to display the logs to actually show up before but here it is from attempting to run the game on the current build on netplay.

This is some kind of XFB initialization bug. I'll be damned, I was wrong.

This was fixed at some point, I can now start it on netplay.
