Cannot add AR cheats using Properties menu
0%
Description
What steps will reproduce the problem?
- Open Dolphin
- Right click on a game in the game list, then click Properties
- Click on the "AR Codes" tab, then click on the "Add" button
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The expected output would be a window to add an AR cheat. Instead of that,
nothing appears. The "Add" button seems defective.

You have to click the Edit Config button (right above the AR Codes tab) and add it
manually, as per the instructions here (start at step 5):
http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-cheats-database/wiki/HowTo_Add_your_own_codes.
However, this is a valid issue. The add button does NOT work, in the AR Codes tab,
or in the Action Replay Manager. Someone fix it please?

Wait, there isn't an add button in the Action Replay Manager. My bad!

I've made a patch for this,
it fixes both the add button and the edit button of the ArCodes properties window.
So you can now add codes or edit codes through this much easily.
here's the patch : http://pastebin.com/m5b6d947f
hope it gets added soon if it's fine :)

In fact, after a few tries, even by editing the ini file, the cheats doesn't seem to
work. At all. I've tried, with Zelda Wind Waker, the following cheats :
$(M)
C4329400 0000FF00
$Maximum Health
003CC531 00000050
They were included with Dolphin. Then I noticed they had a missing line for each
cheat comparing to Codejunkies ones. So I've tried these :
$(M)
02041EB3 98000000
C4329400 0000FF00
$Maximum Health
02041EB4 18000000
003CC531 00000050
They didn't work either. Then I opened the Action Replay Manager while in game. I've
checked the "Enable AR box" and clicked on Update. Nothing appeared. Blank window. I
suppose it's not supposed to happen.
Can someone confirm this issue so I can write a new ticket ? Thanks

- Status changed from New to Fixed
Go to config and tick "Enable Cheats" :)
Slink3, thanks for the patch, I also clarified some stuff in the regular Patch add/edit.

"Go to config and tick "Enable Cheats" :)"
Hmm ... It works better with that option enabled for sure ! Thank you and excuse me ;)

Hi, This issue is not fixed, the issue is still there. Even editing the ini doesn't save anything nothing added. Gecko will save though and the cheat code is added in the list.
