Rumble setting lost from Controller N profiles, if controller is not connected when closing Input settings

[jn64]

Cemu version: 6f985c3 OS: Fedora 36

Description

Rumble setting is lost from Controller N profiles, if the controller is not connected when closing Input settings.

• Only affects Controller 1 to Controller 8, not named profiles
• Does not affect basic bindings on the Input settings page
• Might affect other settings on the Controller settings page, like Motion. Haven't tested thoroughly
• Tested with:
  • original Xbox 360 Wired
  • 8BitDo Pro 2 in "X" mode, Bluetooth (simulates Xbox One Wireless)

Steps to reproduce

Set up test conditions

1. Connect controller
2. Start Cemu
3. Set up Controller 1 accordingly (e.g. with Rumble set to 50%)
4. Quit Cemu
   • controller0.xml contains <rumble>0.5</rumble> at this point
5. Make a backup of controller0.xml to test the following

Repro 1

1. Disconnect controller
2. Start Cemu
3. Open Input settings and close it
4. Quit Cemu
   • controller0.xml does not contain <rumble>... any more

Repro 2

0. Restore the good controller0.xml
1. Connect controller
2. Start Cemu
3. Open Input settings
4. Disconnect controller (for Bluetooth, wait until the Bluetooth-controller reports the gamepad-controller is not connected)
5. Close Input settings
6. Quit Cemu
   • controller0.xml does not contain <rumble>... any more

Workaround

My current workaround is to not use any of the Controller N profiles at all, only use named profiles, and manually assign the named profiles to controller slots in each game's game profile.

I use several different types of controllers, including one (8BitDo Pro 2) that simulates different controllers, so there will always be some not connected and running into this bug.

Hi, I have the same issue (tested with 2.0-47 and 2.0-48), thanks for the tip about using the game's game profile :).
