Emulator Issues #13004
closedThe controller settings window does not update when settings are changed with GameINIs
0%
Description
Game Name?
Any Wii game
What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.
When a controller setting is changed with a GameINI and the controller window is opened, it will not always reflect the actual state of the setting. Instead, it will show what the setting was the first time the window was opened.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
- Add the lines
WiimoteControllerInterface = True
to the GameINI of any game. WiimoteContinuousScanning and WiimoteEnableSpeaker will also behave the same way.
-
Open and close the controller settings window.
-
Launch the game
-
Open the controller settings window. Assuming "Enable Speaker Data" was initially disabled, it will still appear disabled. Alternatively, step 2 can be skipped. Then once the game is closed, Enable Speaker Data will still appear enabled because it was enabled the first time the controller settings window was opened.
Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.
5.0-17134
Is the issue present in the latest stable version?
On 5.0 the UI never reflects the INI setting.
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.)
5.0-15835 is the first version that behaves like the latest version. Since the previous behaviour of never showing the GameINI setting is also broken, I wouldn't call this the first "broken version" but it's the closest thing.
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
[Attach any fifologs if possible, write a description of fifologs and screenshots here to assist people unfamiliar with the game.]
What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

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