Debugfast Dolphin version assertion error - GreatWhiteDolphin - 01-15-2016
My regular dolphin is working good as usual but I want to look into the code and experiment with creating action replay codes and patches. I downloaded a version that is called "debugfast" with no version number, but it was made in 2014. I looked on the dolphin website but didn't see anything about a debugging version, just that typing -d will open a debugger, but I didn't find a debugging tool on the regular dolphin.
There was a 64 bit version of debugfast which wouldn't open at all because it said I didn't have msvcr120d.dll and vcomp120d.dll. Strangely enough, it came with the dll files msvcp120.dll and vcomp120.dll, and moving them to system32 didn't help. Are these the required files, but I just have to add the "d" at the end of the filenames? All I got from an internet search for these files were some shady sites with fake virused files.
I tried the 32 bit version, and the program actually opened, which had debugging features. But whenever I try to open and play a game, it would say there was an assertion and close. The exceptioninfo log says this:
Unhandled Exception
Code: 0x80000003
Call stack info:
Dolphin!0x009AC2CC : ?
What am I missing and is there a newer version of the dolphin for debugging?

Dolphin has already a debugger. Use the argument -d.
Your Profile says you are using 4.0.2. Please don't use that version. It is very old, the dev-build are faster and have more features.

That's good. How do I use an argument and how do I carry over cheats and saves to a newer version?
RE: Debugfast Dolphin version assertion error - GreatWhiteDolphin - 01-16-2016
Okay, it carried over the cheats and saves. But I still have no idea how to insert an argument.

Dolphin.exe -d

I tried renaming it to that, but that just makes it "dolphin.exe -d.exe". How do I insert the -d after the real .exe on Windows 10?

You're not supposed to rename the exe. Change it back to Dolphin.exe.
What you're supposed to do is open cmd, go to the folder where Dolphin.exe is, then run Dolphin.exe -d
RE: Debugfast Dolphin version assertion error - Neui - 01-16-2016
Hold shift and rightclick on in the folder (not any file). A context menu with more options should come up, including something like "Open commandline here". Click on that.
Now a commandline should open with the path of the folder. Then type dolphin -d and hit enter. Now it should start Dolphin with debug tools.

You also could create a batch file. See the internet for how to create a batch file. The only line you need is "dolphin -d" (like before).

Thanks, the shift and rightclick works. I have no idea how to create action replay codes with this though. It looks like the same codes are running over and over and I thought I would see different codes based on what is happening. Any links to an intro about how to go about this?
