Hardware Both Joycon working together as one controller on dolphin (no vjoy etc needed)

[swabbo]

Managed to get my Joycon working fully as one controller on Dolphin using the controller configurations provided



Basically if you rightclick one of the input buttons instead of left clicking, the configure control menu comes up, and you can swap device just for that individual button, which means you can set a/b/x/y/r/z/c-stick to the JoyconR while still use JoyconL for the other buttons

If you got a procontroller it should connect fine with Dolphin. It's bluetooth afterall

Yeah but the Pro controller is £60, the Joycon connect seperately so you normally can only play with one or the other, not both together

Hmm yes, to bad you can't connect them both at the same time. Two different bluetooth adapter maybe.... hmmm.....

You can connect them both at the same time, but most emulators will only let you use 1 Joycon per controller port

For now!(?)

The whole point of this and of vjoy method are to make the 2 joycons work as 1 controller, I think you missed the whole point. If you want to use just 1 joycon you don't even need to do anything.

Yeah it sucks unless you wanna get down and play some retro gbc/gba or even nes/snes games (assuming people still play them) one Joycon is perfect for those systems, can even invite a friend

Just going to flop this to the top so people can see it

How did you get the control sticks to register as axises?

I didn't they act like directional pads and it sucks

Oh, rip

so, control sticks downgrade confirmed? meaning they are digital and are pretty much like the n64 joystick?

...why? We still need vjoy anyways.

hey i tried doing this but whenever i set it so it's a different controller it doesn't save and it counts as the controller set as the device not the one i set in in the right click menu

When paired to a PC normally, yes. It's possible to connect them in a way that the full analog range is available to use, which involves vJoy and some custom Joy-Con drivers that don't quite work for me.
