n00b controller question using keyboard - cnico88 - 05-24-2010

So it's my first time using Dolphin and I've done my fair amount of research before jumping in.

I downloaded the latest version of Dolphin off the website. Obviously I updated my graphics, audio, Visual C++ and Direct X to latest.


I am using a Super Mario Galaxy ISO and the game starts to load, sound loads, graphics are nice and then I get hit with this message: "connect a nunchuck to player 1's wii remote" I went to the thread dedicated for this game and checked all the boxes that were necessary.

I looked in the settings and it says that the wiimote is set to virtual and keyboard. I am using the keyboard for now but something is not right if I get this message.

Specs are:

Windows 7 x64
Intel Core i7 860 @2.8GHz
XFX Radeon HD 5870
4GB DDR3 RAM
Asus P55 1156 board
1TB Western Digital Black

This question is asked all the time, about an hour ago even. Search next time.
Wiimote config, set extension to nunchuk.

Thanks for the quick reply. That was useful and I was able to play the game. However I got to this part where it said to shake the nunchuck and I assigned "F" as my shake motion and I keep pressing it but it doesn't work. Any ideas?

You need to shake the wiimote, not the nunchuk. :/
