If I use something like the MayFlash adapter, can I use my Wii dancepad with Dolphin? Can I use a usb Dancepad with Dolphin and DDR Wii games?

The Wii versions of DDR dance mat emulation is currently not working in Dolphin (as at Dolphin 4.0-1050). The GC versions work (use the GC pad emulation). The Wii Active Life series works (via the Dance mat controller option).

If your Wii dancepad appears under the game controllers in Windows, it'll work with Dolphin.

However, the DDR Wii game currently does not work (as above).

Do you have a Wii capable of running homebrew? Let us know. You might be able to help add DDR dance mat emulation.

This is going to sound like a dumb question, but I want to be sure the mat will work before I buy one.

So skid, you are saying that the Active Life mat (as opposed to the set of games made for it) works with Dolphin. Correct?

If so, can you point me toward any documentation detailing this?

Thanks

I have not tested the Active Life mat in Dolphin as I do not have a GC pad to USB adapter. If the Active Life mat can be detected by Windows, it can be mapped to Dolphin's emulated mat controller.

The information on the Active Life mat emulation is described here:

Thanks skid.

So, in your first comment on this thread are you saying that the GC DDR mat will work with Dolphin?

I'm really just looking for something that will allow me to get some mild exercise while I play games on my PC. I'm really hopping I can accomplish this with Dolphin using the Wii fit, Active Life, Wii Sports, and other games.

Edit: Actually I don't even need this device to be originally made for a Nintendo console. I see some dance pads for PC online. I'm really just looking for a product that is reasonably likely to work with Dolphin on a PC running Windows 7.

Sorry for not being clear. It is confusing when we have a mat that works on the PC and another one that works on the GC and Dolphin which acts like a GC on a PC...

GC mats that are somehow connected to a PC (via a USB adapter or otherwise) and detectable by Windows, can be used by Dolphin to emulate a GC DDR mat or Active Life (Wii) mat. However Dolphin does not yet emulate DDR mats (which are not the same as Active Life mats) that are connected to a Wii DDR game.

For a list of mat products that can be used with a PC, I would suggest you browse the StepMania website:
