Hey everyone.
So I bought the Exlene Wireless Gamecube Controller for my PC because I like the quality of the controller and it has Rumble feature.

I have connected it to my PC through Bluetooth and was able to successfully keybind everything on the Dolphine Emulator version 5.9 - 10912.

The only issue I have is I cannot figure out how to get the emulator to recognize the Rumble feature on my controller.
The controller is in DInput mode when it's connected via Bluetooth.'

Thank you. Smile
Does rumble work in other games/applications on your pc when connected via Bluetooth?

Yes it does.
Is "DInput/0/GamePad" the only device listed in Dolphin when your controller is connected?
Is there an "XInput..." entry?

If not.. in which other application does rumble work, preferably something that's open source?

Yes, "DInput/0/GamePad" is the only device listed in Dolphin when my controller is connected through bluetooth. When it's not connected then it's not listed. Wired connection gives me Xinput exclusively but I bought this controller for it's Bluetooth and rumble feature to play on Dolphin specifically since the PowerA gamecube controller does not have rumble built in.

Also how can I tell if the games I play on steam is "open source"?

If they're steam games they're unlikely to be open source.
Does rumble over bluetooth work with your controller in any other emulators?
I guess just list everything you know of where it does work. Tongue

hmmm... Never thought of trying this controller on a different emulator.
I'll try a PS2 emulator and see what happens and get back to you on that. Smile

P.S - These forums don't immediantly post when I reply? Is the servers slow or something? I find it weird that it sometimes takes day for my reply to go through.

I did some trouble shooting and here is what I discovered.
Exlene Wireless Gamecube Controller has 3 modes:

Xinput mode, Dinput mode, and Nintendo Switch Pro Controller mode.

The Dinput mode and the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller mode can only be used when connected through bluetooth.

To connect to Dinput mode you need to hold down the Home button until the lights flash then Y button untill Windows bluetooth search recognizes it as "Gamepad" and once you connect to it, the light will be solid blue.

The Dinput mode does not support Rumble feature but the bottons are recognized and work fine in Dolphine emulator.

To connect to Pro Controller mode, you need to hold down the Home button until the light flashes then press the X button until Windows bluetooth recognizes it as "Pro Controller".

The Pro Controller mode also does not support Rumble feature. The only program that recognizes this controller is Steam and Steam picks this up as a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller natively. But no rumble from what I can tell.

The only way to connect this controller through Xinput Mode from what I know, is through USB Wired connection in which Windows will recognize it as an Xbox360 controller: In this mode Rumble feature works 100% and Dolphine picks all the buttons fine.

The issue is... I want to use this controller wirelessly, through bluetooth, with rumble feature!
I want to use Xinput mode wirelessly and I have no idea how to do it... if it's even possible?

Does anyone who owns an Exlene Wireless Gamecube Controller know how to connect Xinput mode wirelessly to get the Rumble feature with all buttons to work on Dolphine? Any help is much appreciated. ? Thanks.

Exlene Wireless Gamecube Controller tiene 3 modos:

modo Xinput, modo Dinput y modo Nintendo Switch Pro Controller.

El modo Dinput y el modo Nintendo Switch Pro Controller solo se pueden usar cuando se conectan a través de bluetooth.

Para conectarse al modo Dinput, debe mantener presionado el botón Inicio hasta que las luces parpadeen y luego el botón Y hasta que la búsqueda de Bluetooth de Windows lo reconozca como "Gamepad" y una vez que se conecte a él, la luz será azul fija.

El modo Dinput no admite la función Rumble, pero los botones se reconocen y funcionan bien en el emulador Dolphine.

Para conectarse al modo Pro Controller, debe mantener presionado el botón Inicio hasta que la luz parpadee y luego presione el botón X hasta que Windows bluetooth lo reconozca como "Pro Controller".

El modo Pro Controller tampoco admite la función Rumble. El único programa que reconoce este controlador es Steam y Steam lo recoge como un controlador Pro de Nintendo Switch de forma nativa. Pero no hay ruido por lo que puedo decir.

La única forma de conectar este controlador a través del modo Xinput, por lo que sé, es a través de una conexión USB con cable en la que Windows lo reconocerá como un controlador Xbox360: en este modo, la función Rumble funciona al 100% y Dolphine selecciona bien todos los botones.

El problema es ... ¡Quiero usar este controlador de forma inalámbrica, a través de bluetooth, con función de vibración!
Quiero usar el modo Xinput de forma inalámbrica y no tengo idea de cómo hacerlo ... ¿si es posible?

¿Alguien que tenga un controlador Gamecube inalámbrico Exlene sabe cómo conectar el modo Xinput de forma inalámbrica para que la función Rumble con todos los botones funcione en Dolphine? Cualquier ayuda es muy apreciada. ? Gracias.

Hola, tengo el mismo problema que mencionaste. ¿Me dirías si encuentras alguna solución a esto?
