Does anyone has a config of DualShock 3, that changes the Left Stick of the GamePad to the DPad of the DualShock3?
ex.: I'd like to play Super Smash Bros. with the DualShock3 using the Dpad to move around!

Silly question, but does this work when launching a Wii game through the Wii U menu that has compatibility with using the Wii U Gamepad as a Classic Controller Pro?

Like Xenoblade Chronicles. Would be nice to use a DS3 for it instead of the cheap Classic Controller Pro lol.

Would be possible, but has to be implemented. (Same as the Gamepad to ProController thing)

Also HID to Wiimote, classic controller balance board etc. is all possible. (They all use the same struct as the pro controller.)

I'm trying to create a simple config file that modifies the GameCube controller mapping to so that Y on the GC controller maps to L on the Pro-Controller (that way I can use items in Mario Kart 8 like in Double Dash). The .ini file contains this:
Code:
[vid=0x057e,pid=0x0337]

VPAD_BUTTON_ZL = GC_BUTTON_L

//Activate double using
DOUBLE_USE = true
DOUBLE_USE_BUTTON_ACTIVATOR = GC_BUTTON_Z


//Setting buttons for GC Y
VPAD_BUTTON_L = GC_BUTTON_Y
VPAD_BUTTON_Y = GC_BUTTON_Y

//define which button will be used at which state
DOUBLE_USE_BUTTON_2_PRESSED = VPAD_BUTTON_Y //Value when the activator is pressed
DOUBLE_USE_BUTTON_2_RELASED = VPAD_BUTTON_L //Value when the activator is released

However for some reason hid-to-vpad never applies these edits and instead uses the defaults. I have the file on the SD card in wiiu/controller and I've tried this config file, one that replaces everything (using Example 3 from the wiki, and making the proper changes) and a config file like the above, but using "double_use_button_3..." instead of 2 just in case the documentation is wrong and it does buttons in the order that example 3 uses.

TL;DR: I can't get the app to detect my config file; is there something I'm missing?
Thanks!

I have only 1 wii u gamepad but I have two gamecube controllers. I want to play multiplayer VC games but don't wanna spend a bunch of money on a wii U pro controller. Does this program work with a wiimote or another wii U gamepad? some info on this would be appreciated thanks.

Nope. Only HID Devices like Keyboard, Mouse, PS3 controller etc.

Can someone make a config file for an Xbox one controller that works with Splatoon? I am a noob and don't know how to make one and I think i will mess it up.

Hi! I don't suppose anyone has a config that works with a Hori Rap4 fightstick? I tried putting it in PS3 and PS4 mode and I can't get it working, I'm pretty bad at things like these but incase no one has a config file that could work some help and pointers towards making my own would be fantastic.
Thanks in advance.

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
