Virtual Controllers Not Working After Updating

[yellowface7]

Hello.

So I haven't updated my dolphin emulator in months and I decided to update a few nights ago.

When I ran a gamecube game, no button works and the controller has been bound to keys but worked on the prior version.

First two lines of the update log reads:

Code:

This issue is present on wii titles as well.

Also, I got no replies on the subreddit other than people who has the same issue, so I decided to ask here.

Still experiencing this issue.... I really want to use this emulator but can't..... Anyone?

Which controllers are you using? "Virtual controllers" aren't exactly clear...

[yellowface7]

I'm using the default controller keybindings for the standard controller. None of the controller slots work.

Try opening the Controller settings then click on "Clear", then "Default". Does it work with the default keyboard bindings after doing that?

When I did this, at first controller 1 still had the issue. When I did this with controller 2, it worked and when I disabled controller 2, controller 1 appears to work normally for some reason. I tried solutions like this before but it goes back to an unplayable state after a while.

Okay, that's weird.

Which games are you trying to play? Also, are you playing on the keyboard or on a controller? If the latter, which controller model you have, exactly?

[yellowface7]

I have mostly been playing Kirby Air Ride. I also tested with Animal Crossing. As for keyboard vs controller, I use keyboard.

It is also worth mentioning that I am not alone with this issue. When I tried saying something on the subreddit, the only reply I got was of someone else experiencing the same thing.

Does enabling/disabling "Background Input" on controller settings improves anything?
