0%
Description
Game ID?
GFZE01
What's the problem? Describe what went wrong in few words.
Game switches to intepreter for some reason and never loads now. Worked fine before. All other games that I tried boot.
What did you expect to happen instead?
Launch in JIT
Dolphin 3.5 and 3.5-367 are old versions of Dolphin that have
known issues and bugs, so don't report issues about them and test the
latest Dolphin version first.
Which versions of Dolphin did you test on?
4.0-1202
Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which
versions of Dolphin used to work?
This broke in the past few revs.
What are your PC specifications? (including, but not limited to: Operating
System, CPU and GPU)
Win 8, x64, nvidia 660
Are you using the 32 or the 64 bit version of Dolphin?
x64

4.0-1202 -> https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/commit/63a09b76f9b7b60b8eafcef6e5cbe3725e8ec42d -> "Merge pull request #169 from RachelBryk/extract-dol -- Fix extracting dols."
There is nothing here that should impact F-Zero GX like that. Are you SURE you did proper revision testing to narrow down the culprit?

Find the first broken revision. That's not it.

BTW, all games launch in interpreter and then switch over to JIT; that's how it's always been. What's more likely is that something updated/changed on your computer is causing the crashing. Unfortunately, I doubt this is the NVIDIA driver bug, as F-Zero GX is one of the few games that work despite it.

I figured out what was going on here. After an hour of testing, I finally found the problem - it's a cheat parsing issue. I had the AX code on. Handling changed between 4.0-889 and 4.0-905 that introduced this stability regression. With 889, game boots fine, swap over to 905 and it hangs. There's no other builds on the main site between those, but I'm sure the culprit will be easy to spot. Let me know if you need anything else here.
See Issue 7091 for a similar report.

You should probably make an issue directly for the cheat parsing thing, then we can just merge this issue into that one.

Ok, logged this: Issue 7093
You can merge in this and Issue 7091 probably.
