Hello everyone.
I made this tutorial not too long ago on how to use Action Replay codes with the Dolphin emulator. It took me forever to figure out. I was finally able to do so with the help of a topic created by Arch Feline.
The comments I've gotten on Youtube for this video have been positive, so I hope it helps some of you. This being said, if you run into any problems, make sure you check the comments before asking here

Tools needed:
-The Dolphin emulator (of course!)
-GCNcrypt (check the 5th step of this guide for more information)
1.) Open 'Dolphin.exe' (I'll be using version 3.0 as an example.)
2.) If you don't have any ISO's listed in the main menu, go to 'Browse' and navigate to the folder containing the .ISO you wish to use Action Replay codes on.
3.) Go to 'Options', and then 'Configure'. Under the 'General' tab, make sure 'Enable Cheats' is selected. This is basically the master 'kill switch', so if you ever want to disable your Action Replay codes, go here and disable them.
4.) Right-click on the game in your list you wish to use Action Replay codes on, then go to 'Properties'. Once in the Properties menu, go to the 'AR Codes' tab.
Note: Gecko Codes ( http://geckocodes.org/index.php ) can also be downloaded automatically from the Gecko Codes database (check the 'Gecko Codes' tab), but there aren't Gecko codes for every game out there, and my tutorial doesn't cover these.
5.) Once in the 'AR Codes' tab, click the 'Add...' button. Here, you will be able to input a name for your Action Replay code (it can be anything, as long as you can understand what it is), as well as the code itself. It says that you may insert encrypted codes, but I've been inputting the decrypted codes instead, and have thus far had no issues. To decrypt Action Replay codes, you'll need 'GCNcrypt'. This is a free, open-source utility designed to encrypt and decrypt Nintendo Gamecube Action Replay codes. If you can't find it via Google (and, you should be able to quite easily), just contact me and I'll give it to you myself.
Note: You must enter codes one line at a time! Meaning, if your code has multiple lines of code, you must enter one line at a time. Check the video for a better explanation.
6.) Hit 'OK' once you're done entering your code, and now you may hightlight it to remove or edit it. If there are more parts of your code that need to be entered, simply go to 'Add...' and do it all over again. When finished, click 'Close' and double-click your game from the list. As your game loads, you should notice your codes being enabled via the on-screen text.
While in game, you can go to 'Tools' > 'Cheats Manager' to further toy around, but you're basically good to go!

a short 'guide' for converting yourself. I'm assuming Action Replay to be the same format used in DeSmuME as action replay. I don't have a real AR device though, so I can't test it there.
here's the formula for AR:
8bit Write (1 byte): 2AAAAAAA 000000XX
16bit Write (2 byte): 1AAAAAAA 0000XXXX
32bit Write (4 byte): 0AAAAAAA XXXXXXXX
A is for Address, X for value. the first digit represents size.
example:
assuming I found the money cheat in FFXII: Revenant Wings, the address is 02FAF080, size 4 bytes (32bit) and i want the value to be 50m. convert 50m to hex is
my cheat will be like this:
02FAF080 02FAF080
my cheat will be like this:
02FAF080 02FAF080
now I want auracite. the address is 0207350C. you can't have more than 99, so size is 1 byte (8 bits). so we have to change the first digit to 2. the address is now 2207350C. convert 99 to hex, is 63. fill zeroes before it so it's 8 digits.
result:
2207350C 00000063
result:
2207350C 00000063
If you want to only activate the cheat on a button press, add a line first:
94000130 FFFB0000 for select
94000130 FCFF0000 for l+r
etc. (look at existing AR codes to find more examples)
e.g if you want 99 auracite when you press l+r, the code will be
94000130 FCFF0000
2207350C 00000063
94000130 FCFF0000
2207350C 00000063
