This adds the option to configure real Wiimotes by specifying their Bluetooth addresses in the configuration file. This allows off-brand Wiimotes to work without using the Bluetooth Passthrough option, if you know their Bluetooth addresses beforehand. Despite correctly setting the LAP to `0x9e8b00` in `WiimoteScannerLinux::FindWiimotes` while scanning, which is indeed enough to make off-brand / knock-off Wiimotes respond to a Bluetooth Inquiry, some (several? all?) bluetooth adapters seem to override and ignore this given LAP value when performing the Inquiry, and actually use the `0x9e8b33` value as if a null pointer have been given to `hci_inquiry`, as inspection of USB/Bluetooth packets by Wireshark indicate. Off-brand Wiimotes don't respond to inquiries with this LAP. If one happens to know the Bluetooth address of their Wiimote (for example, by checking `BluetoothPassthrough.LinkKeys` after using Bluetooth Passthrough, or other means such as directly using `libusb` to force the adapter to use the correct LAP in the Inquiry), then it's enough to add those addresses to the vector of found Wiimotes. Since this a niche use case and I only happen to know and have tested in Linux, this change only affects the `WiimoteScannerLinux` backend. It's likely that it could be added to other backends, but I'm unfamiliar with these. If no addresses are given or this config section does not exist, behavior is completely unchanged.
Dolphin - A GameCube and Wii Emulator
Homepage | Project Site | Buildbot | Forums | Wiki | GitHub Wiki | Issue Tracker | Coding Style | Transifex Page
Dolphin is an emulator for running GameCube and Wii games on Windows, Linux, macOS, and recent Android devices. It's licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License, version 2 or later (GPLv2+).
Please read the FAQ before using Dolphin.
System Requirements
Desktop
- OS
- Windows (10 1703 or higher).
- Linux.
- macOS (10.15 Catalina or higher).
- Unix-like systems other than Linux are not officially supported but might work.
- Processor
- A CPU with SSE2 support.
- A modern CPU (3 GHz and Dual Core, not older than 2008) is highly recommended.
- Graphics
- A reasonably modern graphics card (Direct3D 11.1 / OpenGL 3.3).
- A graphics card that supports Direct3D 11.1 / OpenGL 4.4 is recommended.
Android
- OS
- Android (5.0 Lollipop or higher).
- Processor
- A processor with support for 64-bit applications (either ARMv8 or x86-64).
- Graphics
- A graphics processor that supports OpenGL ES 3.0 or higher. Performance varies heavily with driver quality.
- A graphics processor that supports standard desktop OpenGL features is recommended for best performance.
Dolphin can only be installed on devices that satisfy the above requirements. Attempting to install on an unsupported device will fail and display an error message.
Building for Windows
Use the solution file Source/dolphin-emu.sln to build Dolphin on Windows.
Dolphin targets the latest MSVC shipped with Visual Studio or Build Tools.
Other compilers might be able to build Dolphin on Windows but have not been
tested and are not recommended to be used. Git and latest Windows SDK must be
installed when building.
Make sure to pull submodules before building:
git submodule update --init --recursive
The "Release" solution configuration includes performance optimizations for the best user experience but complicates debugging Dolphin. The "Debug" solution configuration is significantly slower, more verbose and less permissive but makes debugging Dolphin easier.
Building for Linux and macOS
Dolphin requires CMake for systems other than Windows. You need a recent version of GCC or Clang with decent c++20 support. CMake will inform you if your compiler is too old. Many libraries are bundled with Dolphin and used if they're not installed on your system. CMake will inform you if a bundled library is used or if you need to install any missing packages yourself. You may refer to the wiki for more information.
Make sure to pull submodules before building:
git submodule update --init --recursive
macOS Build Steps:
A binary supporting a single architecture can be built using the following steps:
mkdir buildcd buildcmake ..make -j $(sysctl -n hw.logicalcpu)
An application bundle will be created in ./Binaries.
A script is also provided to build universal binaries supporting both x64 and ARM in the same application bundle using the following steps:
mkdir buildcd buildpython ../BuildMacOSUniversalBinary.py- Universal binaries will be available in the
universalfolder
Doing this is more complex as it requires installation of library dependencies for both x64 and ARM (or universal library equivalents) and may require specifying additional arguments to point to relevant library locations. Execute BuildMacOSUniversalBinary.py --help for more details.
Linux Global Build Steps:
To install to your system.
mkdir buildcd buildcmake ..make -j $(nproc)sudo make install
Linux Local Build Steps:
Useful for development as root access is not required.
mkdir Buildcd Buildcmake .. -DLINUX_LOCAL_DEV=truemake -j $(nproc)ln -s ../../Data/Sys Binaries/
Linux Portable Build Steps:
Can be stored on external storage and used on different Linux systems. Or useful for having multiple distinct Dolphin setups for testing/development/TAS.
mkdir Buildcd Buildcmake .. -DLINUX_LOCAL_DEV=truemake -j $(nproc)cp -r ../Data/Sys/ Binaries/touch Binaries/portable.txt
Building for Android
These instructions assume familiarity with Android development. If you do not have an Android dev environment set up, see AndroidSetup.md.
Make sure to pull submodules before building:
git submodule update --init --recursive
If using Android Studio, import the Gradle project located in ./Source/Android.
Android apps are compiled using a build system called Gradle. Dolphin's native component, however, is compiled using CMake. The Gradle script will attempt to run a CMake build automatically while building the Java code.
Uninstalling
On Windows, simply remove the extracted directory, unless it was installed with the NSIS installer, in which case you can uninstall Dolphin like any other Windows application.
Linux users can run cat install_manifest.txt | xargs -d '\n' rm as root from the build directory
to uninstall Dolphin from their system.
macOS users can simply delete Dolphin.app to uninstall it.
Additionally, you'll want to remove the global user directory if you don't plan on reinstalling Dolphin.
