Can I use a Wiimote as GCPad? - SOLVED

scorpionwins · (This post was last modified: 08-03-2011, 08:08 PM by scorpionwins.)

Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum.

I was wondering if anyone could help me with using the Wiimote (real one) as the GCPad controller?

The Wiimote works perfect, I chose "Real Wiimote" under its settings and everything is Ok.

However under the GCPad settings there is simply no option to use the wiimote as the GCpad
controller. The only available option there is "DInput/0/Keyboard Mouse", which doesnt allow
me to use the Wiimote with GC games..

Does anyone have a solution? I've been googling the issue for 2-3 hours now with no luck.
So please help if you know how I can solve this problem. Thank you fellas

I want to use my wiimote, when playing GC games, such as Sonic Colors.

The wiimote is connected and all the Wii games work fine,
however with the Gamecube-games, the wiimote doesnt work.

In Dophin, under the settings of the GCPad, I cannot enable the wiimote.

I remember I made it work about 6 months ago but I forgot how Tongue

(perhaps another build of dolphin). This is what I need help with.
I want to play Sonic colors (for example) With the Wiimote, and not Keyboard+mouse.

I don't know if it's possible to map wiimote buttons to a gcpad (other than using glovepie or somethins similar), but if you just want to play Sonic Colours, this game fully supports Wiimote.

Kernel64, How do I get it to work with the wiimote?

do I have to enable/disable anything?

Dolphin provides no way to do this.
You would have to use another tool such as GlovePIE like kernel64 said.

Okay I have a noob question. How do I disable the GCPAD in dolphin completely?

FIXED IT!!!!!!

To everyone out there with the same problem, here's the solution.

Click Config
* Gamecube
* change port 1 to NOTHING (default is standard controller).
* start the game and the wiimote will pop up Smile

Cool, I'll try this. I travel with Dolphin and Wiimotes, I want to use my wiimotes for GC games too Wink

Thanks for reporting back.
