My first post. Thanks to all devs, bug-reporters, alpha/beta testers, documentation writers, and all else who've worked to made Dolphin a reality. Not just because it's an emulator, but a dynamic emulator that allows graphical improvements over the original games. Visionary!
Anyhow, I've just installed Dolphin today. Only problem is that I don't have a Gamecube controller and the emulator won't allow me to make use of either my PS3 (model#CECHZC2U a.k.a. Dualshock 3) controller, USB Apple keyboard, Dynex mouse... anything. Latter info provided only for context, I don't want to play with my keyboard and mouse.
I say "make use of" because the controller does work on my system in other games (used with both OpenEmu's Genesis emulator and Soma). The battery, I believe, is dead as the LED lights no-longer light up, nor will the controller be detected via Macintosh's Bluetooth setup. I'm running it via a USB cable extender.
My system specs are: a 21.5" iMac circa late 2013. OSX 10.12.1 (Sierra). 2.7GHz Intel Core i5 CPU. Intel Iris pro 1536MB IGPU. Running Dolphin 5.0.
I've checked the official guide here, looked up several YouTube tutorials, and searched in several threads (e.g., 1, 2), as well as tried my luck at using the controller as an emulated Wiimote as recommended here, to no avail.
The controller is detected by Dolphin and listed as "Input/0/PLAYSTATION®3Contro..." (it trails off, can't read the full listing). But none of it works. It detects no button presses. When I click a given button to map it and press the button, nothing happen. No analog stick motion is detected, nothing. I've also tried rebooting my computer and the software several times, just incase.
Could this have something to do with my having upgraded to to OSX Sierra, released roughly a month ago? I'm at total loss here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
