Full Changelog: https://github.com/Provenance-Emu/dolphin-ios-jitless/commits/4.1.0beta5

DolphiniOS 4.1.0 beta 5 (iOS & tvOS)

�� What's new

  • Stunning GameCube/Wii theming ✨
  • Authentic game case covers with system-specific gradients (purple for GameCube, blue for Wii)
  • Realistic case reflections, spines, and Nintendo branding details
  • Award-winning focus glow effects with cyan/purple gradients on tvOS
  • Enhanced visual depth with shadows, highlights, and premium feel
  • "GameCube Gradient" background option in library settings

Smarter controller setup

  • Clean, programmatic mapping UI on tvOS (no more storyboard crashes)
  • Friendly device names + auto-profile loading that actually works
  • Quick controller assignment from the pause menu
  • One-tap layout switching between Apple, GameCube, and Wii variants

Touch controls that feel right

  • Optional high-contrast touchpad overlay with proper multi-touch
  • Motion sensitivity (gain), deadzone, smoothing: dial it in your way
  • Better visual feedback and cleaner UI while playing

�� DSU Controller Features (Cross-Platform Gaming)

  • Complete DSU implementation - Turn your iOS device into a wireless controller for tvOS/PC
  • Multiple controller layouts - Apple Virtual, GameCube, Wii Remote, Classic, and Sideways
  • Smart motion controls - Choose between Gyro, Follow, or Drag for IR pointer
  • Flexible input routing - Map motion to Wiimote or Nunchuk, toggle Raw vs Telemetry
  • Real-time status HUD - See connection status, TX/RX counters, and client info
  • Targeted sending - Choose specific receivers or broadcast to all
  • Touch area overlay - Visual touchpad for precise cursor control
  • Tooltip system - Learn what each button does with helpful hints
  • Apple Virtual Controller - Native iOS touch controls with D-Pad/Stick toggle

🖥️ tvOS Love

  • Full-screen pause menu - Auto-shows when app backgrounds, respects your flow
  • No keyboard nonsense - Mapping and settings built for the remote/controller
  • Clean visuals - Less clutter, more play
  • Enhanced focus effects - Beautiful cyan/purple glow animations

🎨 Visual Polish

  • Enhanced fonts - Rounded system fonts with iOS 16+ compatibility
  • Smooth animations - EaseInOut transitions and haptic feedback
  • Better contrast - High-contrast touchpad overlay option
  • Premium feel - Inner highlights, shadows, and depth effects

⚙️ Quality-of-life upgrades

  • Shader list search - Find what you need without scrolling
  • Quick graphics controls - Right from in-game overlays
  • Smarter defaults - iOS as controller, tvOS as console
  • Better discovery - Devices show up where you expect them
  • Motion customization - Fine-tune sticks with soft snap-to-center

�� Known issues (beta)

  • DSU IR cursor - Still inconsistent in some setups (especially with mixed gyro/touch inputs). If your cursor drifts or "fights" you:
  • Try turning off "Send Gyro/Accel" and "Map IR to Touch" for pure touch cursor
  • Switch Touch IR Mode between Gyro / Follow / Drag to see what your game prefers
  • Re-enter the controller view to reset motion and cursor state

🚀 Stability & performance

  • Fewer random crashes (threading and discovery hardened)
  • Snappier input round-trip and more reliable reconnects
  • Touch and motion won't step on each other anymore

�� Pro tips

  • Want pure touch cursor? Turn off "Send Gyro/Accel" and "Map IR to Touch"
  • Motion too twitchy? Lower Gyro Gain in Motion Settings
  • Swapping layouts a lot? Use the toolbar Layout button in-game
  • Love the GameCube vibe? Try "GameCube Gradient" in library background settings

🙏 Thanks

Huge shout-out to everyone stress-testing, filing clips, and pushing for better UX. Keep the feedback coming—this build is for you.
