Can't use per game inis for Wii remote anymore - lukedink - 01-12-2017

Hey, I have all my games setup with a frontend (LaunchBox) which launches the game files (with the parameters: "-b -e"). I play most of my Wii games with a physical Wii remote, however I would like to use an emulated (different controller) Wii remote for a few games. I can achieve this (only in the Official 5.0 release) by adding the following line to the game INI file: " WiimoteSource0 = 1". For some reason this causes the latest builds (including the ishiiruka builds) to raise an exception. Oddly enough, on those builds when I open them and then manually click on the games from there it works fine. Does anyone know how to resolve this? Let me know if you want more details.
EDIT: Bisected to find that the exception is first raised between dev builds 5.0-867 & 5.0-881.

Please bisect (find out which version first introduced the issue).

Is there some Archive that I can use to do this?

Actually, there is a very useful tool from Helios you can use if you're on Windows: https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds

Okay, after awhile I found it! The exception first appears between builds 867-881.

Which version is it precisely? (i.e. what is the last working version?)

Is 5.0-876 the first version where it's broken?

Not sure, the Bisection tool lists builds 5.0-867 and 5.0-881 as consecutive. So I guess the first broken build is 5.0-881.
