In this video I want to show you the most authentic way of using Action Replay to cheat in games in Dolphin. Note how I have Cheats turned off in Dolphin's own settings, so Dolphin's own cheat handlers are disabled.

EDIT: Booting Action Replay without the bios seems to be possible in newer versions of Dolphin! (e.g. 17269)

The Action Replay I use is the Action Replay Max (version 1.14a) by Datel. There are extra steps needed to even run the AR disc in dolphin: A gamecube IPL is needed and needs to be placed in /GC/(region of IPL)/IPL.bin in the Dolphin Emulator folder. Skip Main Menu should be disabled in Config/GameCube, and DSP LLE Emulation turned on in Config/Audio. Dual Core needs to be enabled to reduce the amount of errors to click away when booting the disc. The AR disc can now either be ran through the game list in Dolphin or you can boot the GameCube Main Menu, change the disc to the AR and run it that way (which is what I did).

Now you can cheat as it was originally intended!

(I own a physical copy of Action Replay Max and had to dump it using a special version of CleanRip which took several hours. I guess it was worth it? 🤔)
