This is very off topic but I would very much love to contribute is somewhat to Dolphin. I was an beta tester then alpha tester for PJ64. I helped with the patch of a few games. One of which was Perfect Dark where I discovered that a bug in the EEprom was causing it to crash. I came up with a work around and then a proper fix was implented..

I gave the custom build of Dolphin a try to see what it was like, but my PC is powerful enough for the master so there was no need to really use it. I deleted the "Dolphin Emulator" folder from documents to reset everything.

Oh thanks for posting on my thread. Sorry about the earlier post that was meant for another user. I'm not really concerned that the build would harm my computer in anyway. I'm more concerned with the less accurate emulation introducing bugs into games or causing conflicts with the shared settings folder IE C:\Users\user name\Documents\Dolphin Emulator
Yeah, Ishiiruka just has different design decisions making it better for specific uses.

I follow the politic that settings that behave the same way master behaves keep their name but settings that behaves diferently get a completly new name in that way ishiiruka should not introduce problems in master and the same goes for master to ishiiruka, if that happends in any case is an issue and i will fix it asap
