Gecko Button Activator? - ThatBenderGuy - 12-01-2015

Does dolphin support button activator cheats with Gecko? I'm trying to use a code for my region in AC that checks for the B button for a moon jump but it doesn't seem to work. Here is the code, it's for Animal Crossing City Folk North American Version

Code:
Moon Jump [Seth@WiiPlaza]
286DFC80 00000400
04E9D054 40A00000
CC000000 00000001
04E9D054 B0A00000
E0000000 80008000

I pressed B but nothing happens. If button activators are not supported is there a way around it? Or is there a trick to get them to work? The activator code in the jump code is 286DFC80 00000400


The activator code for Animal Crossing CF is 286DFC80 XXXXYYYY

Dolphin's implementation of Gecko codes doesn't work with some codes, in particular button-activated codes.

No work-around I take it?

You can try emulating a real Gecko program.

And changing the hook type in said real gecko program. As a last resort, you can try switching to LLE audio on our Gecko HLE; that makes some more codes work in my experience.

So run Gecko and launch the game through that?

Which Gecko hooks should I try? The different hook types in Gecko that I see is Default, VBI, Wii Pad, GC Pad, GXDraw, GXFlush, OSSleepThread, and AXNextFrame. Which of those should I pick?

And do you mean change the audio engine to to LLE?

EDIT:
Wait why would changing the DSP Emulator Engine to LLE make some codes work? What does audio have to do with the way the codes are ran?

EDIT:EDIT:
Should I use the LLE recompiler or interpreter?

Try both, but hopefully it'll work with the recompiler since it's a good deal faster.
