So, today I downloaded Dolphin and attempted to play a game on it. Unfortunately, I seem to be having some trouble getting my controller to work with the emulator. It isn't a Wii controller, but is rather a generic plug-and-play controller that I use to play games on my computer in general. When I first booted up the game, I got a message telling me to "Connect the Nunchuck or Classic Controller to the Wii Remote." Undeterred, I poked around Google for a bit and found some incredibly old threads which advised me to switch over from "Emulated Wiimote" to "Hybrid Wiimote." I did this. Unfortunately, this gave me a new error, which states, "Communications with the Wii Remove have been interrupted." Once again, I turned to Google, and once again I found incredibly old advise telling me to disable "Speaker Data." Unfortunately, this time I was somewhat more hard-pressed, as "Enable Speaker Data" box was already unchecked. All the rest of the advise seems to revolve around getting a brand name Wii remote instead of an off-brand Wii remote, as I was advised that off-brand Wiimotes wouldn't work, but I wasn't using a Wiimote at all, so this advise didn't seem to apply. I eventually tried resetting everything and going back to the original keyboard settings to see if that would help, but that didn't make the error messages go away, either.
So! This brings me to the thread. What am I doing wrong, and what can I do to fix it? Do I need to buy myself a Wiimote to get the emulator to work? Or would buying a Wiimote just leave me in the same situation I am now: wondering what to do to fix this error?
