It comes with windows since 8.1, honestly I've given up on this, this is the only emulator that doesn't recognize this controller, so I am assuming is on t he devs to "fix" or "add" it to their list.

I am still troubled by the fact that a website recognizes every button on this controller but this emulator doesn't.

Any of you gotten your 360 XInput controller to work with dolphin?

I've bought a gamesir recently but it doesn't support dolphin or rather it does, but dolphin doesn't the detect all the buttons for the controller ( other emulators do even websites do ), so I am wondering whats a good alternative.

Wait what? You have a gamesir controller? I have one too and are experiencing the exact same issues! Maybe it's this specific controller brand? It is kindof a cheap chinese brand. I have a G3s specifically.

Yeah, I send it back anyways, and no it's not because it's cheap I think it's the devs "fault" or rather the program itself not identifying it correctly, other emulators do like I've said.

Honestly is weird, but whatever I guess.

Kind of wonder if that website that I posted that's apparently open source might be able to help them on figuring out support for this controller or others, because I am sure not even the new steelseries controller works for this emulator, and probably neither a xinput xbox controller, but I am not 100% sure.

So I am gonna go with the PS4 controller, though I am kinda of bummed because I have to buy a bluetooth usb adapter lol.

Only way I found to make it work was with Controller Companion app on steam, and even than is annoying to use because you have to literally make the controller be a "keyboard", which somehow makes the joysticks mess up.

so yeah I am finally done with my research.

also thanks for everyone who gave me answers on this thread.
