Emulator

I'm having the same issue on macOS Sierra when configuring emulated Gamecube Controllers. Dolphin version 5.0-1035 (23b5a41).

Fix available: https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/4334

Anyone uploaded a new developed version with a fix yet? Because I can't configure controller settings at all without a fix. How annoying.

I honestly don't understand how someone would change one of the parameters in one of the previous developed versions, whichever one it is, that would cause the entire Controller Settings window to completely crash on OS X 10.12 Sierra either due to a segmentation fault or something else because I would at least expect there to be some sort of safeguards in place to prevent a function like that from triggering a crash because this really is a trivial error. I at least know that when I was using Version 5.0-300 something, the window never crashed at all so I don't know what happened. I strongly recommend that someone should put some safeguards in place to try to prevent crashes like this that are really easy to fix because I find this quite embarrassing.

And as someone on the project I can say it's really not. there are hundreds of people who've contributed to Dolphin, not everyone is able to test on every operating system, and not everyone is going to think of situation.

Once the bug was reported it was looked into immediately. If the standards set forth by the project aren't good enough for you, please feel free to not use the emulator.

JMC, Hey I'm not trying to order you guys around or anything, with all due respect, all I'm saying is that you guys should try to be a little more careful to try to avoid regressions as much as you guys can. That's why I'm saying that there should be some safeguards put into place for that pending fix on Github to try to prevent crashes like this. I'm just giving out some constructive criticism & advice that's all. I still wish I could figure out what caused this crash to trigger though. Hopefully somebody will have the fix available on the site eventually since I'm back to using Version 5.0-359 for now.

I honestly wish I could help contribute to Dolphin by fixing these bugs, regressions, & try to improve the Dolphin Emualtor but I'm no Developer or Programmer, so all I can do is only provide feedback and bug reports.

A fix was landed in 5.0-1085, @mkikoen can you try a recent development release?

Reporting the bugs is a big help, and we appreciate it greatly. It's just that things take time, especially when we have a limited number of Mac OS developers.

We need users like you reporting it though, without that, it'd be extremely unlikely we'd run into it due to not having many mac users.

mkikoen, please test a development build so that we know whether this is fixed.
