Dolphin Config #42

Closed Godsbane closed 2 years ago

Godsbane commented 2 years ago

Paths in the dolphin config are weird.

https://github.com/dragoonDorise/EmuDeck/blob/dc33a0ce4c37767e2a8401b9057fd5583f6558b9/configs/org.DolphinEmu.dolphin-emu/config/dolphin-emu/Dolphin.ini#L35

I tested manually changing the file to the correct paths and it was fine, but if i updated them in the front end they look like that.

If I’m understanding flatpaks documentation correctly /run/user/$uid is part of their sandboxing mechanism. So I’m guessing the dolphin frontend is erroneously setting the path to flatpaks document export location. For normal use that’s fine, but it may break things if the config is shared with others. The $uid should be fine as $uid=1000 maps onto the “deck” account, but the “77fd26b2” identifier may not be idempotent between devices.

when i use the normal userspace path, the dolphin flatpak can read it fine. I'll probably just do a PR that uses that, and then the user is on their own if they add more or change things.

This wasn't needed but I fixed it anyway, now the roms path for Dolphin are the right ones. 0.15.5
