Request for PadSimple with C-Stick Horizontal Reversed/Inverted - williambumble - 08-19-2009

Hey can I request that you please compile a version of "Dolphin KB/360pad" plugin (Plugin_PadSimple.dll) which has the C-Stick X-axis (horizontal) Reversed/Inverted?

This is because currently in Zelda Wind Waker when you move the camera in Free-look it moves the wrong way! ie Right instead of Left; Left instead of Right. There is no in-game option to reverse the horizontal axis of the c-stick, and the GUI of the plugin doesn't have one either.

This is a problem I've seen posted on every Dolphin-related forum but there is no solution other than a special compile of PadSimple. I'm using a wired Xbox 360 controller and the plugin works great with rumble and everything, if you could do this one change it would be much appreciated.

Using x86 XP Build of Dolphin

Emmm, are you mapping keys or using xbox360 controller?
If you're mapping keys, you can just alternate them...

xbox 360 controller can be remapped with x-padder

Thanks for your replies. I am using Xbox 360 wired controller.

This is a necessary request at least in the case of Wind Waker, because when enabling PadSimple plugin using 360 with rumble, the emulator does not recognize mapped-keys input override from any 3rd party tool eg Xpadder, Pinnacle, etc. Therefore you cannot invert the C-stick horizontally or otherwise.

Of course you can disable 360 controller via PadSimple and map the default keybindings via Pinnacle (which I'm currently doing) and it works great but you lose rumble support, which is very well implemented for 360 controller via PadSimple.

Because PadSimple doesn't provider User Settings in pad.ini Config file it looks like only a Special compile of the plugin with C-Stick settings inverted (Right=Left, Left=Right) will work for Wind Waker. If someone could do this that'd be greatSmile

This is a great emulator and I appreciate the development you guys have put in over a long haul, I've been following it for ages and only downloaded a build this week.
