Dolphin Bar not working in steam

ClemmerC · 10-15-2018, 01:28 AM #1

Not sure when exactly this happened. I launch my Dolphin Emulator Wii games through steam. This has worked exceptionally well the last year or so. However, now Steam suddenly doesn't know what to do with the dolphin bar, when I launch a Wii game in steam, the wiimotes will not work. If I launch a Wii game directly, not through steam, the wiimotes work as usual. What has caused this to quit working?

Sounds like a steam problem. Are you using big picture mode (or is steam seeing the controllers and trying to take control of them?)

It's not working in either mode, regular or big picture. I figured it was a steam problem, just was hoping someone here has run into the same issue. I've never had trouble before, when I started it was all pretty much just plug and play.

I went into big picture mode in the controller settings, and it cannot find the wiimotes unless the dolphin bar is in the 3rd setting (which is useless for Wii games)
