Description

What's the problem?
In game ini file we can set some values for a specific game, but real XFB option aren't working. Take for example Crash Nitro Kart (U), in game INI (GCNE7D.ini) we have the UseRealXFB line under Video, but if you start the game, these options will be disabled. If you manually set this on the video config dialog and start the game again it will work.

Dolphin version with the problem:
Dolphin SVN r6737

Operating system and version:
Windows 7 Ultimate (x64)

Game ID:
GCNE7D, but it will occur too with any other game that have UseRealXFB line set on their game config INI.

Was the ISO a plain dump from disc, compressed and/or scrubbed?
Plain dump.

For me XFB preferences in game config work perfectly (r7459 WinXP 32-bit)

The XFB preferences work when you set UseXFB=true on game INI (virtual XFB), but if you put UseRealXFB=true, XFB stay disabled (the example game, Crash Nitro Kart need Real XFB to work properly).

I don't understand what's your problem, I have both UseXFB = True
UseRealXFB = True in the ini (as it is created by Dolphin) and Real XFB works perfectly.

After taking a look, this issue should be marked as invalid, the problem is that only UseRealXFB=true doesn't enable the option. Dolphin work on that way:

UseXFB = True (enable virtual XFB)


UseXFB = True --and--
UseRealXFB = True (to enable Real XFB)

The current Crash Nitro Kart INI (GCNE7D) has only UseRealXFB, and doesn't work because this. Sorry for any apologize (I'll open an issue on Dolphin Cheats Database to devs update these game INI).

You don't have to open another issue because the current ini of GCNE7D has already both...

@jhonn

But this bug is old. It doesn't exist anymore.

Anyway I think an explanation is necessary in this case:

UseXFB is the main chekbox of the group (this enables the XFB mode only)
UseRealXFB = False (virtual) - True (real)

when UseXFB is unspecified, UseRealXFB takes, ALWAYS, values from Default profile.
