Any way to use mouse for IR with a gamepad? - Wisoo - 01-22-2014
Hi there, I'm trying to use a gamepad for playing Nintendo Wii games but in most games (such as Super Mario Galaxy) it's very hard to navigate through the menu without using a real wiimote. I can't bind the IR controlls to the mouse when I use "Emulated Wiimote" and I can't bind the gamepad controlls when I use "Hybrid Wiimote".
Any way to fix this so that I can use my gamepad together with my mouse?
I'm currently using a Logitech ChillStream. I added a picture as an attachment

Don't touch default settings and it will use your mouse for IR:

But I don't think you can use a gamepad and a mouse at the same time (at lest not with dolphin alone)

I have touched the settings, but I had to do it in order to bind things to my gamepad buttons. I couldn't bind anything to the mouse or keyboard since I had to select "XInput/0/Gamepad" in the dropdown menu in order to make anything work with the gamepad :/. If I change it to "DInput/0/Keyboard Mouse" I can bind the IR to the mouse but then I can't bind anything to the gamepad instead.
I saved my bindings and went to "Documents\Dolphin Emulator\Config\Profiles\Wiimote", opened the corresponding .ini file and tried to add
IR/Up = Cursor Y-
IR/Down = Cursor Y+
IR/Left = Cursor X-
IR/Right = Cursor X+
manually, but the mouse still does nothing ingame
. Is there any way to make the mouse work together with the gamepad or do you have any other way to solve my issue?

Right click each ir button and at the new window that opens up select mouse as your device and manually cursor y- etc. (auto detection will set to axis which is wrong so don't use it).

Thanks m8! It worked!
Man that was simple, feel stupid for needing a step by step tutorial haha. Oh well, thanks a bunch!
