Hacking WiinUPro - Pro Controller to PC Gamepad

[abispac]

Hey i m having problems with my pc detecting the controller, im using Toshi BS 8.00.12 installed just fine, but it fails to detect the controller,. Also im not on original wiiu pro, im using the nyko pro commander, wich i wonder if that can be the problem. Are all controllers (original and generics) detectable? thanks for any help.
Edit, i also have a powera mini controller and also the Toshiba BS wont detect

There is already mention of somebody trying to use a third party controller quite a few pages back.
Just out of curiosity, what does it identify as under the bluetooth tab? Bluetooth -> Details?

KeyPuncher Do you have an Android phone? If yes, is there a chance you could port WiinUPro to Android? AndroidUPro would be really cool

reading to this thread i discover that the nyko controll isnt discoverable...so no free option for me

Ok so I tried the Windows 8.1 Stack instead and it can connect to the controller...just no program seems to pick it up. Both this one and another WiiU program don't seem to Reconise

I have considered looking into that. We use this program called Xamarin at work which allows us to write Android code in C# so that would make porting the connectivity piece pretty easy, but I'm not sure how to write non-applications for it (as in things that effect the internal systems) but I may look into it later.

The controller stays connected after connecting it to the Windows 8.1 stack?

Yeah It stays Connected, I don't know how long but It was able to stay connected for a bit. Just no program would recognize is.

Well if it you connect it and let it sit and it disconnects itself (lights stop flashing) then it's probably being disconnected before the programs can even pick it up.

IT didn't seem disconnect for a while, I'm going to check again by leaving it connected to my pc. Cause It was connected when I opened the program, It even came up in my device list

1 hour later: Still blinking and it connected
2 hours later: Still blinking and it connected No program is registering the controller though
4 hours later: Blinking and still connected.
6 hours later: I think the battery will die before it disconnects
8 Hours Later: ok At this point Im turning it off myself , It was connected the Entire time but no program picked it up

I was playing around with the default Windows 8 BT stack and trying to read the controller once it's been connected. I can't seem to get it to give me a bluetooth stream, I can connect it programmatically but not read from it. So the default stack seems to be out for now.

Great, Any alternatives to the Toshiba one cause that one refuses to install for some reason.

Not that I've tried. I've only read that TR versioned Wiimotes don't work with Windows, Bluesoleil, or Broadcom/Widcomm and the Pro Controller inherits from the TR Wiimote.

any chances that somene would make the powera and nyko controllers apear on the pc? neither toshiba or windows stacks are willing to detec them...

 

[del_delly]

I guess we could always mail them and ask.

Guess I'll just keep trying the Toshiba Stack then.

Hi everyone, just wanted to inform those who may have not seen the update, but XInput support is almost here.
I'll be shifting my focus back to finishing the final versions starting with WiinUSoft.

Try Setting up different vJoy devices, this is not uncommon.

Supports Interworks Pro Controller (third party classic controller) ?
