Need help with controls - JimThorpe - 03-16-2010
Some basic questions, thanks for any help you guys can give.
I'm using revision 4771, I assume that's the latest stable release.
I can't seem to be getting the controls working for many of the games. I have a regular dual-action USB controller (same as a PS2 controller), should I be able to use all games with it? Smash Bros Melee works flawlessly, however Punch-Out!! and New Super Mario Bros. Wii are giving me mad issues with the controls. I hit the wiimote settings button, put in classic controller, and went to button mapping and put in all the basic key mappings for the classic controller. I don't think there's a good way to emulate a wiimote, can I simply go without them for all games or what?
Is the "pad" configuration just for the X360Pad? I can't get any keymapping to work with that on my usb controller for some reason, yet it will do my keyboard.
Last off, I remember being able see "recommended settings" and such for the games and be able get them running under best settings without surfing the site. Has that changed?
Thanks a ton guys.

4771 is quite an old version. Grab either a recent SVN build or the Release Candidate. ( you can find links on the forums )
Not many wii games support the classic controller.
You will need to choose to emulate the wiimote or the wiimote+nunchuck in most cases.
