Emulator

I was also surprised that it had gone unnoticed for so long.

I'm using GCC 8.3 on Debian.

Which game?

Upload "WiimoteNew.ini" or show screenshots of every tab of your emulated Wii remote configuration.

Also, could you try a newer compiler version? In particular, I'm interested to see if you can reproduce the issue with GCC 10.2 (which is the version I'm using).

The problem does not occur when using GCC 10.2 to build Dolphin (but it does occur when using GCC 8.4, in addition to GCC 8.3 as I reported earlier).

That's good enough a fix for me!

Hi, is there any chance this bug will get fixed? Unfortunately I ran into the same issue and updating gcc to 10.2+ isn't that easy on my MX Linux 19 machine since compiling the source always fails for me. :\

And is this problem really just related to the Matrix.h-file?

There appears to be nothing to fix on Dolphin's end. This was identified as a compiler bug that has been since fixed.

5.0-12873 is claimed to work and 5.0-12875 is claimed to be broken.
This is the only change: https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/commit/3176f4d790a96f1aa2ebbe1a0f9aa1061ec60c21

If constexpr qualifying functions alone is breaking logic in the resulting code your outdated compiler has some major problems and it's not reasonable to try to work around them.

I understand. I managed to compile the gcc-10 version and since then everything is working fine. The "problem" is that the latest "official" gcc-version you can install by using the repositories (e.g. Ubuntu, Debian) is below gcc-10. So you usually have no other choice but to build it for yourself. I mean, most Linux users use apt,Synaptic or other package managers.

You can always grab a pre-built version of Clang from https://releases.llvm.org/download.html and use that to build Dolphin. Or use a PPA to get a newer GCC if that's available (usually possible on Ubuntu).

Is it confirmed that it will work with Clang? To be honest: I already tried to build that clang stuff but never saw the pre-built-version - I think I'll give it another shot.

PPA is not an option unfortunately because most of my systems use MX Linux which is based on Debian.

Thanks for all the replies!
