Better Idea, if it's allowed, we do add all these games to the games.ini and update them... have a updated in my dolphin folder, but don't post this, if it's not allowed... so, mods???
/me looks very nice to them
Would be better for n00bs, because they don't will ask all the time (okay, most of them will do...) they will only have to look in their updated ini and that's it, so?
Other comments, oppinions?

I've been thinking of posting my games.ini for a while now. It's a better idea than simply posting a list of game names, and any users asking about a games compatability can be told to update their games.ini and STFU :D

Don't see why an .ini wouldn't be allowed. Would definitely be useful for a lot of people, I'd say go for it.
EDIT: Plus I really want to play this "Rouge" Squadron I keep hearing so much about ;).

Few corrections here and there..

Super Monkey Ball: Unplayable, AX-Command error

Nonsense. I can get to the loading screen. :p

Kirby’s Air Ride: Playable, shows ingame, crashes after first few minutes

I tried it, it can only get in Top Ride to play. It crashes when I try to enter gameplay in City Trial and Air Ride.

Other then that, I can't see anything wrong with it.. but you might want to add the following :

Donkey Konga (Jap): Doesn't Boot.
Donkey Konga 2 (Jap): Doesn't Boot.
Mario Story 2 (Jap): Doesn't Boot. AX errors.
Paper Mario 2 (USA): Doesn't Boot. AX errors.

._.

Also,
Wave Race Blue Storm: goes as far as the menu.

I'm also testing which games you should/shouldn't shrink. Since the "shrunk" image can sometimes be alot larger than the original, after that I'll post my ini....

PAC-MAN Vs. (NTSC): Unplayable! Only shows a black screen!

Pokémon Box: Ruby & Sapphire (NTSC): Doesn't really works, because you would need an (emulated) GBA-connection to "play" it.

Smashing Drive (NTSC): Doesn't work, hangs at the "Licensed by Nintendo" screen!

Super Smash Brothers Melee (NTSC): Doesn't work, you can get to the menu but after this it crashed! (doesn't work with the trick... probably only with the PAL Version)

DarthDazDC ... if you are willing to help me, we could put that list in a Database format. you would have to specify the fields and the possible values (or variable values) ... then i could make something dynamic. for example ... what if you want the list in order of Playable to Not Playable? ... or what if you want the list in Alphabetical order? ... or if you just want something standard so you can more easily read what's going on. if you want an example, i have developed a Nintendo database which i'm still working on ... it's purposes are a secret and it's as follows:

http://24.78.82.137/nintendo/listing.aspx

if the link doesn't work, it means i'm getting too many hits ... i'm not running server software and Windows XP will only allow something stupid like 10 external hits a minute ... i'm not sure ... 5 ... i'm not sure.

I think posting .ini's would be okay ;)

In fact, it's just nice that you work on updating them.

As soon as this compatibility list will be completed, I will put a new topic with the updated list sticky with the ini. If a new game is tested , I will update the ini and update the list.

It might now avoid people making useless topics like "is XXXX working?" and so.


Also, CoDeX, don't you think normal that it a compatiblity list would be for 1 version only? since both version got a diff. one? The Beta Compatiblity list will be here as soon as the version itself will be released.
