Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

I'm trying to use a WiiU fight pad controller with a Wiimote plus, which as far as I can tell, is the same exact thing as a wii classic controller. What is the best way of getting this controller set up as a gamecube controller?

So far, I have tried installing cwiid and using wminput and/or wmgui, but both refuse to connect to the wiimote at all. It just says that it can't find any wiimotes, whether it is already paired with the OS or not. xwiishow will show the wiimote if it is paired with the OS, but it doesn't seem to support this controller extension.
