Places all of the SI code under the SerialInterface namespace instead of
only the main source file. This keeps all SI code under a common name,
as well as out of the global namespace
- There's no clear definition of what it means for a GC/Wii game
to be compressed. GC games in GCZ are obviously compressed,
but what about formats like WBFS and CISO that just discard data?
- Hardcoded colors might have bad contrast with the used theme.
- It feels Windows XP to me.
This implements MIOS's PPC bootstrapping functionality, which enables
users to start a GameCube game from the Wii System Menu.
Because we aren't doing Starlet LLE (and don't have a boot1), we can
just jump to MIOS when the emulated software does an ES_LAUNCH or uses
ioctlv 0x25 to launch BC.
Note that the process is more complex on a real Wii and goes through
several more steps before getting to MIOS:
* The System Menu detects a GameCube disc and launches BC (1-100)
instead of the game. [Dolphin does this too.]
* BC, which is reportedly very similar to boot1, lowers the Hollywood
clock speed to the Flipper's and then launches boot2.
* boot2 sees the lowered clock speed and launches MIOS (1-101) instead
of the System Menu.
MIOS runs instead of IOS in GC mode and has an embedded GC IPL (which
is the code actually responsible for loading the disc game) and a PPC
bootstrap code. To get things working properly, we simply need to load
both to memory, then jump to the bootstrap code at 0x3400.
Obviously, because of the way this works, a real MIOS is required.
Movie basically just wants to get the title ID of
the initally booted game, so let's set the title ID in
ConfigManager at boot like we do with the regular game ID.
Aside from being cleaner, this should make the approach to
title IDs compatible with booting non-disc software (WADs).
Instead of directly reading/storing settings from/to the SYSCONF, we
now store Wii settings to Dolphin's own configuration, and apply them
on boot. This prevents issues with settings not being saved, being
overridden and lost (if the user opens a dialog that writes to the
SYSCONF while a game is running).
This also fixes restoring settings from the config cache after a
graceful shutdown; for some reason, settings were only restored
after a normal shutdown.
Fixes issue 9825 and 9826
This stores the address of paired devices and associated link keys.
It is needed because some adapters forget all stored link keys when
they are reset, which breaks pairings because the Wii relies on the
Bluetooth module to remember them.
It doesn't fix adapters that can't remember any link key
at all and always return 0 for the number of stored/written link keys.
For those adapters, there is no fix.
This also improves the usability of passthrough mode for adapters that
already work, since pairings will now keep working even if the link
keys get cleared by something else (for example by the host Bluetooth
stack).
This adds the ability to passthrough a whole Bluetooth adapter and skip
the majority of the Bluetooth emulation code. We use libusb to send HCI
commands, receive HCI events and transfer ACL data directly to the
first adapter that is found or to a specific adapter (if configured to)
This is possible because the Wii's Bluetooth module is actually just
a pretty standard Bluetooth adapter…
…except for two vendor-specific commands, for which replies are faked,
and also for the sync button. This adds a hotkey that works in the
exact same way as the sync button would on a Wii: it triggers an HCI
event, which emulated software interpret as a command to perform
a BT inquiry.
This commit also changes the UI code to expose passthrough mode
and WII_IPC_HLE to be a bit more thread safe (for the device map).
When 5.0-211 updated wxWidgets to 3.1.0, some entries in the
wxLanguage enum were moved and added, changing the wxLanguage
values. Because we save Dolphin's interface language to disk
as a wxLanguage, the language you have set will mean something
different depending on whether you have the updated wx version
or not. For instance, setting the language to English with the
updated version and then using an older version will make
Dolphin use Dutch. Because we can't rely on the enum anymore,
I'm replacing the "Language" setting with a "LanguageCode"
setting that uses standard ISO 639 codes.
At first there weren't many enums in Volume.h, but the number has been
growing, and I'm planning to add one more for regions. To not make
Volume.h too large, and to avoid needing to include Volume.h in code
that doesn't use volume objects, I'm moving the enums to a new file.
I'm also turning them into enum classes while I'm at it.
Fully opt-in, reports to analytics.dolphin-emu.org over SSL. Collects system
information and settings at Dolphin start time and game start time.
UI not implemented yet, so users are required to opt in through config editing.
Dolphin has supported the recalibration shortcut (X+Y+Start) for quite a long while. So if someont's axises are terrible, you could easily
recalibrate.
Games even get the initial calibration upon boot(Most of the time).
While changing over the GCAdapter code, I was testing to make sure the reset and calibration shortcuts still worked, turns out they didn't work at
all.
Looking in to the problem, we capture the combination properly, and we wait three seconds until we actually fire that off recalibration.
The problem is for Nintendo's SDK to properly handle recalibrating, we need to send back data saying that it needs to recalibrate.
On hardware this is done as part of the 64bits of data the controller sends back to us.
On holding of the controller, bit 61 of the return value is set, which the Nintendo SDK catches, and then signals immediately afterwards a CMD_ORIGIN
command in order to recalibrate the controller.
We were outright ignoring this bit, so the library wasn't ever recalibrating. I suspect in the past the class itself used to use the calibration data
to to offset the data, but somewhere along the lines it got munged out of existence.
The Gamecube adapter does this shortcut in a bit of a unique way, instead of sending the command and having the library support it and what have you.
Once holding the shortcut for the amount of time, the adapter reports back that the controller has actually been disconnected. Then when you let go of
the combination, the adapter states that a new device has been connected to that port, and the recalibration happens because a new device is
"connected."
This fixes controller calibration for both emulated GC controllers and also the Wii Gamecube Adapter.
We don't throttle by frames, we throttle by coretiming speed.
So looking up VI for calculating the speed was just very wrong.
The new ini option is a float, 1.0f for fullspeed.
In the GUI, percentual values are used.
The Wii U Gamecube controller adapter setup has always been a bit weird. It tries to be as automatic as possible to make the user experience as easy
as possible.
The problem with this approach is that it brings a large disconnect in the user experience because you have the Gamecube controller setup with regular
gamepads and then for some reason below that you have a "direct connect" option which will cause the Gamecube Adapter to overwrite the regular inputs
if something was connected.
While this works and allows the user to only click one checkbox to get the device working, it breaks the user's experience because they don't really
know what "direct connect" means and won't look it up to figure out what it is. Just expecting the device to work (At least one occurence of this in
the IRC channel in the last week).
This way around also had the terrible nature of making the code more filthy than it needed to be. The GCAdapter namespace was parasitic and hooked in
to the regular GC Controller SI class to overwrite the data that it was getting from the default configuration.
Now instead we have a specific SIDevice class for the Wii U Gamecube adapter. This class is fairly simple and is a child of the regular SI Gamecube
Pad device and only reimplements what it needs to.
This also gives the ability to configure controllers individually, which allows the user to configure rumble individually per pad input.
Overall the code is cleaner, and it fits more in line with how the rest of Dolphin works.
