Project64 uses DirectInput7.
Dolphin uses DirectInput8.
Your controller adapter appears not to support DI8 properly for some reason.
Get a new adapter/driver.

Hi guys, sorry to bump such an old thread but I feel it useful to for the following reasons:
*The trio linker plus II was once quite a popular way to link a gamecube controller to a PC.
*Dolphin is the main Game Cube emu so it makes sense that people should be able to use them together.
*I have found lots of people asking this question on the internet with no answers.
*This is the first result on Google for 'trio linker plus dolphin', so people searching for a solution will likely look here first.
*I have it working.

Its quite a simple solution so maybe people have had other problems but this is what worked for me. I am using Windows 7 64-bit and Dolphin 3.0:

First when I plugged in my controller and installed the latest driver from here (Note: there is no 64-bit driver so I downloaded the 32-bit edition), testing in the control panel worked fine. When I came to configure the controller in Dolphin however the main stick and C-stick failed to calibrate properly whilst the triggers seemed to be inverted.

All I had to do to get it working was instead of left-clicking on the option for each button/axis and then pressing the button / moving the axis, I right-clicked and manually selected the correct option for each one which wasn't working correctly. After a little fiddling to make sure I had the right option in each field, everything seemed to work perfectly!

Please note this is working with DInput rather than SDL under the 'Device' options.

I know it's simple as hell, but maybe everyone just missed it...

Here is a screen shot of my configuration for everyone's reference (saves you fiddling around):

I just started messing with Dolphin and had recently picked up a Trio linker Plus II for use in my Mame/Emu cab and was struggling to get the GC controller configured. This post helped me immensely! The directions were spot on, and the diagram saved a lot of trial and error. Thanks!
