Preventing Gamecube Main Stick from reverting into neutral position - Iamnotcreative - 01-25-2014
Hello Dolphin Community!
So this is my first post on this Forum so please forgive me if I have missed something and made any mistakes by posting this thread here or if a thread like this already exists. I tried using the search function but even after going to quite a few threads I haven't gotten anywhere.
So my question is: how do I prevent the Main Stick in an emulated Gamecube controller from reverting into the neutral position when I change the direction of the Stick. At least I think that this is the problem I am not 100% certain.
I am trying to play Baten Kaitos: origins and I am at a point where I have to run through a maze where you have to hold down a dash button to cross the room. If the player lets go of the dashing button for even a moment you fail the maze and get ported back to the entrance of the maze. The character only dashes when the Stick is not in the neutral position. Now as I understand it every time I change the direction of the main stick it momentarily reverts into the neutral position before changing to the new direction, which means the character momentarily stops dashing when I change the running direction and I fail the maze.
So if someone wants to know what maze I am talking about here is a random walkthrough with the maze: http://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PL89DDA7A33DFC6B13&feature=player_detailpage&v=Q4_3wJBnFOg#t=1595
Thank you in advance for any help!

You could try making the dead zone zero, but unless you are using an actually joystick there isn't much else to do.
