Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

If I try any of the revisions such as 4788 4789 or 4790, they don't work. When I try to play the game I get the following errors:
Can't init any PAD Plugins
Couldn't init the core.
Check your configuration.

Also none of the plugins show up for pad or wii remote on the newer revs

This occurs with ANY of the revs..I've tried many by different people.

I'm trying to resolve the multiple controllers randomly not working all of a sudden thing. I was on 4771 and the crazy part is if I try that one it works. I've tried fresh downloads of the revisions and 4771 several times with the same results.

HALP!

I have tried updating dx9, installing the user run time, editing the plugins section of the config file, trying the 4771 plugin with 4790 and vice versa and nothing works except the straight up 4771 download

-Win 7 x64
X2 @ 3.3
4Gb ddr2 @ 1000
HD 2900 @ 900/900

I want to add that I tried dolphin jitil rev 4788 and copied over the plugins from 4771 and it works but I will have to wait till tomorrow to confirm whether the remotes still work in multiplayer after 10-30 mins of play. Honestly I doubt it because the file sizes are different for the plugins so I'm assuming there were changes relevant to the multiplayer issue.

Okay nope totally doesn't work. The dpad/joystick buttons are inverted and mixed and it doesn't work. After opening and closing a few times, it now says it can't find the wiimote plugin even though it worked 2 seconds before. This crap is weird.

try older revs man try older revs

don't just try every new rev that comes out...

try me it'll drive you nuts!

I refuse to accept that. There has to be a reason why the plugins don't load with any of these newer versions while its working just fine for everyone else.

Here are some screenshots for comparison.

On the left is 4792 on the right is 4771

As you can see, everything is pretty much the same, although the banner does not show up for the game.

Plugins files are there and are not misspelled or anything.

.ini file shows appropriate locations for the plugins

Downloaded and Installed all required updates - twice.

Windows 7 is up to date

I want to add that I tried swapping the plugins from a 4794 rev to 4771, and the other way around as well. I tried using one of the ati rev downloads (plugins), i tried just copying and pasting the 4794 dolphin exe to the 4771 and also swapping the user files, just config files, etc....NONE OF IT WORKS. No matter what the pad and wiimote plugins just will not work unless i use the regular 4771. This has led me to believe that there is a change in the code for the newer revs that doesn't work for some reason and it's killing me to try and figure out why.

several times now. if that was the problem then 4771 wouldn't work either. i even tried a patched 4771 and that also did not work. - edit - thanks Jefferson, now it looks like I'm talking to myself...probably cause I am.

I've seen this symptom on someone else's PC, which has an integrated Intel video card.
But I can't figure out why.

I guess I'll have to just live with 4771 until there is another official release and see if that one works for multiplayer. I have no onboard video by the way, just my card.

I have a problem similar to the your's, except that in my case, only the Wiimote plugin is missing (in your pictures I can see that your Pad and Wiimote plugins are gone). If it is of any help, read the experiments I've made, and my conclutions in post #15 in this thread:
