Thanks again for all the work on Dolphin - hopefully this begins to "pay" for my enjoyment of it. To open and manage the controller settings for Dolphin, from the Dolphins main window, navigate to Options -> Controller Settings, or simply click the 'Controllers' button.
#Dolphin emulator gamecube as classic controller free
If you have any questions, if I did something wrong, or if all of this is just blindingly obvious, feel free to comment below.


If there is a way to set these to use the entire range with the fancy-dancy boolean editor, or by telling Dolphin to use the entire axis, I would love to learn about it. This is because their Axis registers from -32767 to +32,767 and the Analogs are only set to Axis +. The only 'bug' I know of is that the analog shoulder buttons have to be pressed down half way before they register at all. However, the axis detection is not terribly reliable, so you should probably leave those alone. It is perfectly safe to remap the buttons using Dolphin. To fix, migrate controls to use separate physical controllers. If a physical controller is set to emulate both a GameCube Controller and a Wii Remote concurrently, it will operate both devices at the same time. It does NOT match the labels on the Classic Controller, but I think it feels more like the original GameCube controller. Data East Arcade Classics is capable of using both GameCube controllers and Wii Remotes. You should now be able to see that all your Classic Controller buttons work! Open Dolphin, click GCPad, select "Classic Controller" from the drop down on the right, and click Load. Push 1+2, and wait until the program says 'Ready.'įinally, let's import our new controller profile into Dolphin. Some of the commands MAY need to be run as sudo/root.įirst, we need to create the proper mappings from the Classic Controller to system actions. I've tested this with both 3.0 Release and latest SVN.Īll of this is specific to Ubuntu, but will likely work for other distros too. There are lots of other guides on teh Interwebs that can help you with this. cwiid working (running 'wminput' should properly detect your WiiMote). The trick is to get all your buttons, and especially axes, to have usable assignments with cwiid, then to get Dolphin to recognize everything you've setup. This includes all buttons, the D-Pad, both analog sticks, and the analog shoulder buttons.įirst off, I'm running Ubuntu for this - I'm sure something similar could be done using GlovePIE or whatnot, but I'm using cwiid. After a lot of tinkering, I think I have a pretty workable config. I spent quite a bit of time trying to get my Wii Classic Controller to work as a gamepad for GameCube games. First, thanks for the awesomeness that is Dolphin - I've had a lot of fun tinkering around with it!
