project-slippi / Ishiiruka

Many contributors have come forward to add features to this release. Thank you for getting involved!

This release does not include official macOS and Linux support yet. We are excited for everyone in the Melee community to finally get to try rollback without needing a Windows machine, but we will be officially releasing that in the near future.

Main updates

• Process for connecting two players together has changed. This will hopefully lead to less people getting stuck in connecting -> searching loops (#70)
• First to 20 wins speedrunners rejoice! @UnclePunch has improved game load times by at least 1 second. Enjoy your free 20+ second time save
• Pokemon Stadium is now in the rotation and will hopefully no longer crash with Sheik/Zelda. Please let us know if you experience any crashes. It is currently frozen due to technical limitations
• Reorganized gecko codes and added labels denoting their importance. Additionally added some useful optional codes that do not cause desync. See screenshot below (project-slippi/slippi-ssbm-asm@0e62d24)
• It is now possible to configure delay from the Dolphin UI (please don't do it from the file anymore). Delays can be changed without restarting Melee but if you have an in-process game, the new delay won't apply until the next game. See screenshot below for UI (#58)
• Names are now displayed under the player HUD while in-game (project-slippi/slippi-ssbm-asm@2da4174)
• Pausing in unranked now initiates a client-side pause overlay that allows you quit the game but does not stop gameplay, begone griefers (project-slippi/slippi-ssbm-asm#19)
• Added replay configuration options, can choose to not save replays, choose the path to save them, and whether to organize them by month. See UI below (#58)
  • We have changed the default replay storage location to Documents/Slippi
• The previously entered connect code is now preserved on re-entry (project-slippi/slippi-ssbm-asm@3756dc9)
• Added display names (#54) and connect codes (#61) to replay files
• When using the old netplay lobby window to start the game, inputs were not being handled correctly (#60)
• Get into your matches faster with the option to auto start your default ISO! Set Melee as the default ISO and check the box in the Dolphin config (#79)

New UI for configuring Slippi settings
