[Release] Fakemote: An IOS module that fakes Wiimotes from the input of USB game controllers

[Deleted member 466238]

Is that bug on wii and vWii? Or just vWii?

And do you know if the bug was present in 0.9.1 also? Or just the latest update?

I only have a Wii U, so I only tried on vWii, but apparently it also happens on regular Wiis

And yes it seems that the bug is only present in 10.0.0

@XFlak A new update of fakemote 0.5.1 has been released, it would be possible that you perform an update in the cios installer of both Wii and vWii, to update the cios, although the improvements are minimal, it would be great to have them updated. Thank you

Done, it can be found here: https://github.com/davebaol/d2x-cios/releases/tag/d2x-v11-beta1-FM051

Also it can be downloaded within ModMii by choosing it in the d2x version settings\options

Thanks, I have tried it, and I have noticed something strange, when exiting a game from the loader, it leaves a black screen, which does not happen with the previous version, I clarify that if it recognizes the controls, I don't know if this is a problem new version or of the cios installer application that you compiled.

The changes to the package from 0.5.0 were minimal, even if I made a mistake it would likely be to just the cios tag/identifier. I can unpack the wad and double check later on but I'm confident the bundle is solid

Hi @xerpi

Thanks for all your work

I really hope you can consider adding GameCube / GC Controller support in any new updates.

I'm interested in how this project, along with the BlueRetro for GameCube applied to the GC ports of Wii, can significantly improve compatibility with most common Bluetooth controllers for practically any software available on the Wii.

I already have the BlueRetro project on my Wii, and it works like a charm with different controllers (I've tested PS3, PS4, Switch Pro, Xbox One) all at the same time. I use it for all games and homebrew that support GC controllers and it's solid as a rock.

Your work is amazing, and I really appreciate how it extends the life of the Wii.

How do you update fakemote? I have the fakemote module Version 0.5.0 installed in slot 252 ios 58. Do I just follow the same procedure and the new version (0.5.1) will overwrite it in the same slot?

 

[XFlak]

Yes

 

[cereal_killer]

Yes

The previous version (0.5.0) acts weird lately, changing player 1 and player 2 wiimotes around automatically and not being responsive (maybe thats how its supposed to be, idk I described the issue here https://gbatemp.net/threads/fakemote-weird-problem.635214/), but anyway should I first delete the contents of the slot 252 to get a "clean install" so to say or simply overwriting it will produce the same result as deleting and then installing it anew?

 

[XFlak]

Overwriting will produce the same result

how exactly does fakemote work?

I mean, it kinda switches between P1 and P2, rendering my PS3 controller useless when it is set to P2.

Here's how it works for me - normally when I launch a game - Resident Evil 4, for example, via wiiflow or usb loader gx it would automatically detect my PS3 controller and set it as P1 (hand with number one on it), while my wiimote would become P2 (hand with number two on it), but sometimes, when I launch some different game, it sets my PS3 controller as P2, making my wiimote P1 and it messes everything up - not one single button except the PS logo button, which acts like home, works on the PS3 controller while in the game, so I have to restart the system -> first launch Resident Evil 4 (to have the PS3 controller set as P1-> and then launch another game to be able to play it.

Is this supposed to be that way? Is it the same for everybody or am I missing something?

Just spitballing here, but have u tried resyncing the remotes via the home menu as if you want to change the order of the wiimotes?

yes, I have but the problem is how do you resync the PS3 controller? Pressing buttons won't work because its not an actual wiimote

Anyone able to get MH Tri working with a certain config?

 

[Ewpb]

Does this work when you start up homebrew? Retroarch for example?

 

[impeeza]

If the homebrew uses the CIOs you put fakemote on, yes, it will work

For me the game always crashes after a few seconds.

 

[Ewpb]

How do I know what CIOs my homebrew is using?

If the homebrew uses the CIOs you put fakemote on, yes, it will work

Edit: it will show up in syschecks presuming you downloaded my bundle. If u manually/personally prepared the installer it will depend on how fully you updated ciosmaps
