I downloaded Dolphin 2.0 from dolphin-emu.org. The game I'm trying to play is the gamecube fire emblem. I'm having trouble getting it to work on the keyboard (which is also a laptop btw). I tried searching through the previous keyboard threads but all it did was confuse me even more. When I load the rom there are no problems with the picture, speed, or sound. I updated my directx. so far the only button that seems to work on the keyboard is the 'enter' key. If anyone would like to post some help or provide some links it would be much appreciated.
and i also tried downloading the latest SVN from the above mentioned website, but when i opened it up i saw that there was no input section in the plugins tab in the config menu.
In the svn builds the input configuration can be accessed through "Options->Gamecube Pad/Wiimote Settings" or the big "GCPad" and "Wiimote" buttons on the toolbar.
See if your keyboard works.
i dont have the latest svn anymore. i got rid of it and got regular 2.0.
so i downloaded the latest svn which is 6337. still cant do anything on the keyboard. the only things that work are the arrow keys and the enter key. i even tried checking connect usb keyboard, still nothing.
i'm just gonna post the settings i currently have.

do i need some special plugin or something?
Which game?
Show a screenshot of your input config.
is this what yer talking about?
OK. Well you have the enter key mapped to "Start" and the game says "Press START", so press enter. :p
I realize you said "the only things that work are the arrow keys and the enter key"
Well what doesn't work, and at what point in the game? :/
i did press start but then it led to the next screen in which i'm currently stuck. i need the 'a' button to get past it. but like i said, no other button works.
