XBOX 360 Controller Gamepad for Dolphin - meshblorg - 06-06-2010

Games I've been trying to have my gamepad work for that do load up correctly:

-Metroid Trilogy
-New Super Mario Bros

Dolphin Revisions:

-5619
-5475
-Dolphin 2.0 (main site)

Problems: When I start the game, no input is received from my gamepad to the game. I can setup my XBOX 360 USB controller in the settings and test out the joysticks with no problems. I tried this with both the old Gamepad plugin and the one labeled New. No luck and when I start the game it doesn't respond. I even tried disabling the Wii mote settings. The keyboard controls do work.

Older revisions I've tried:
-4737

Problems: When I enable the 360 controller using the KB/360 plugin... the game receives the input however it's incorrect. Up is left and down is right and the buttons are funky too. The joysticks also don't respond. When I setup my controller in this older revision using the njoy plugin... the game does not recognize any changes and the same funky controls exist.

I appreciate all the help I can get. Thank you very much for your time. Smile

Use the "GCPad New" Plugin.
It is included and default in Dolphin 2.0 and svn builds.

edit: I see you said you have tried it. What issues does it give you?

Show a screenshot of your Dolphin config Gamecube tab.

New super mario bros can not be played with a GC controller.
Is metroid trilogy a wii game? Not sure if it can be played with GCPad, might need to use wiimote plugin.

NSMB, and many other wii games, can not be played with a gamecube controller. You need to configure the wiimote plugin. :/

When using GCPad New with a 360 controller, use the XInput device, not SDL.

It's just how the games are made. Just configure the wiimote plugin. What's the big deal :/

Of course. :/
The plugin lets you map your keyboard keys doesn't it?
