Hello,

I'm specifically trying to get a widescreen gecko code to work in PSO I&II, for what it's worth, as featured here:

https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?t...ecko_Codes

However, whenever I click edit the file comes up blank. If I go to Documents\Dolphin Editor\GameSettings and try to make the file directly, it will be overwritten by a blank file, and then deleted by the emulator. In no event do the codes actually showing up. I also tried editing them into the default for the game in the Program Files directory, but this does not seem to change anything either.

In no event can I get the Gecko code tab to be anything but blank. I have cheats enabled in the general options.

Here is what I changed the default file GPOE8P.ini in Program Files\Dolphin\Sys\GameSettings to:

Code:
# GPOE8P - PHANTASY STAR ONLINE EPISODE I&II

[OnLoad]
# Add memory patches to be loaded once on boot here.

[OnFrame]
# Add memory patches to be applied every frame here.

[ActionReplay]
# Add action replay cheats here.

Again, this has not changed anything. Properties->Gecko Codes tab is still blank and never at any point has been anything but.

Note that I converted from Unix to Windows newlines since it seems to cause issues with Notepad showing it correctly, if this is an issue for some reason. The game works otherwise still, just Gecko codes do not work.

I tried changing some of the file permissions in the my documents folder to be more permissive as well.

I tried downloading the nightly instead of the current stable build but it exhibited the same behavior.

I'm at a loss for what might be causing this, any ideas?
also do you actually have the plus version

Yes. Though whether the codes are correct is irrelevant as none are showing up at all.
