Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hi. Was trying to use a portable dolphin just for gun games. Problem is Im using external wiimote software (lichtknarre, touchmote, etc), but when wiimote turn off by any reason, when turning on again, dolphin tries to take control.

Tried to disable continuous scan, but that didnt help.

UPDATE disabling continuous scan did the job, but only works until build prior to 5.0-11684

Using last dev build on windows.


Update with new info:

After exhaustive testing, problem started with this build https://es.dolphin-emu.org/download/dev/...8309f7f67/

https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/8575

5.0-11684 InputCommon: Add support for Wii Remotes in ControllerInterface (PR n.º 8575 de jordan-woyak)

Seems like continous scan is always on, besides disabling on dolphin ui? Or other stuff introduced something that mess with my wiimotes. Even not using the wiimotes at all, just by launching dolphin. The same happens on older builds if I didn't disable continuous scan. But on newer ones seems to not have the same effect.

Thanks

Curious. Without continuous scanning Dolphin should only be looking for Wii Remotes when "Refresh" is pressed, or when you use one of the Wii Remote connection hotkeys. How do you know it was Dolphin trying to take it over and not Steam, your operating system, or anything else that might try to take control?

Hi. I think is dolphin. Steam is closed.

And tested dolphin 4.0 and dont have this problem. Only on 5.0-11684 and on.

Also noticed that when using touchmote, I can sync wiimotes once. And they will reconnect with any button press.

But after launching and closing dolphin, wont reconnect anymore to touchmote without re pair or re sync. Even without connecting them to dolphin. Just by launching dolphin once.

So definitely dolphin does BT stuff even when having all settings off.

Tried retroarch dolphin core and the same problem occurs.

With continuous scan disabled, still tries to take control. And just by launching it, it will kill all paired wiimotes with touchmote.

There is no need to turn on wiimotes, just by lauching dolphin all paired resets, and wont re connect anymore to touchmote, unless re syncing is done. So it must do something to the bt adapter or something.

Been using all kind of emulators for one month but dolphin. And there were no way to kill the pairing. Only launching dolphin killed it.

Disable your systems Bluetooth maybe?

But then it wouldn't work at all. That's not good advice.

As a blind guess, maybe it is worth trying https://dl.dolphin-emu.org/prs/73/12/pr-...est-x64.7z

Hi. Whats that PR about? Cant remember how to see PRs description.

Edit. Guess this one https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/12146

Will give it a try.

Well, tried but no luck.

Just launching dolphin killed my permanent pairing with touchmote.
