Dolphin won't detect controllers. - TheMetal - 08-29-2014

Hello. I've been trying to use different versions of Dolphin in order to get my controls working but to no avail. Even though my controllers work just fine in all my games, Dolphin just refuses to see it. Basically, I just need version 652 to work for certain games over netplay.

Any ideas on how to get dolphin to see the controllers? Like I've said, I tried different versions but none of them seem to be detecting my controllers.

Please show us a screenshot of the device dropdown expanded on GCpad.

Also, please tell us what controller you are trying to use.

I'm using the 3-in-1 MagicJoyBox adapter for GC/PS2/XBOX controllers. I actually had the emulator working just fine for the longest time, but after one reformat and a new hard drive, no builds of Dolphin detects the adapter at all. They see the controllers, but no input.

Select "DInput/0/TigerGame blah blah" from the device dropdown, and then assign buttons. It appears to be working correctly.

You got me.

Thanks.
