Dolphin wont detect input from Xbox One Controller - segasega89 - 06-02-2020

Hi there,

I know this question has been asked a number of times before on this forum but I wasn't able to get a solution from perusing previous threads related to my problem.

I have an Xbox One Controller that is connected to my PC via Bluetooth. It works perfectly with games in general and emulators for both the SNES, Sega Genesis and N64.

I downloaded Dolphin recently and tried to play Twilight Princess by using the Xbox controller. I have everything set up exactly as it should in my configuration settings and the emulator does indeed pick up input from my controller when I calibrated the buttons etc in the "Gamecube Controller Configuration" window. However when I play Twilight Princess it doesn't detect input from the Xbox controller at all and I have to use my mouse and keyboard in order to log into the game. I can only move Link with a combination of the keyboard and mouse.
I have to mention that my current PC does not have a graphics card at the moment so the emulator is using the integrated Intel Graphics card that's built into the Intel i5 2500 that I have. The game runs poorly but I was hoping to purchase a GTX 1050 Ti next week so that I can play the game properly but I've been having trouble with the controller over the last couple of days and I'm unsure whether I will bother purchasing the graphics card if I can't use the controller.

I have attached three screenshots of my settings in the emulator itself that I hope will be of some help. If you need anymore information from me please let me know.
I would be very grateful if someone could kindly help me with my problem!

Kind regards,

You are trying to play a Wii game, but have configured the Gamecube Controller.

The Wii version of Twilight Princess can only be played with a Wii Remote and Nunchuck, either real or emulated.

Thanks so much! This fixed the problem for me! All the best
