Homebrew Official HID to VPAD

[Hayleia]

I was about to say you could tag that unstable release as a pre-release on github. Then I noticed all your releases are pre-releases
Anyways, another vote in favor of releasing early, with a warning if you want.

Damn, I was searching for a way to use the Switch Pro controller on the Wii U so I can use it for MK8, and now I see that this could get updated to support those soon.
I'm hyped.

Is it possible to use this software without a working, paired Wii U DRC? (aside from any initial setup when I could temporarily borrow one)

Is there a way to map buttons to the right analog stick? I want to configure a n64 usb adapter I have, but can't find how to map the C buttons to the right analog stick (if this is even possible).

At the moment, you kinda need the Wii U GamePad in order to launch Mii Maker, which in turn means you can't launch HBL to launch HID-to-VPAD.
A "channel" exists for HBL, allowing you to launch it from the HOME Menu, and I'm not sure in you need a GamePad to run it or not. But then to install it, you need to use WUPInstaller, which means you have to launch HBL through Mii Maker, requiring a GamePad.

@Maschell is the controller config
*.ini enabled on the current version? I'm trying to recalibrate the dead zone on my GCN controller because it's slighty narrower than the Wii U controllers, but it just ignore the config.

I tried adding [IgnoreDefault] + dead zone line but the game (Batman Blackgate) crashes when I touch the sticks.

It's possible configurate sticks dead zone in the gc controllers, if so how?

I've actually got CBHC fully set up and working, but I only have a few days left borrowing this DRC.

When launched as a channel I can open homebrew like HID to VPAD with just a paired Wii Remote, however I can't select anything. I've simulated the unpaired DRC by keeping it out of range of the console.

I'd love to see a release of it @Maschell, my xbox360 controllers needs to be used more

Darn makes me sad we may not be able to get new PS4 controllers though but still great program!

Oh I'm supposed to have the [gamepad] tag too? That might be why mine didn't work. Will try this! Thanks!

Did it work for you?

No, because it use blutooth for communication, only hid devices work with it (ex the one plugged to an usb slot).

So could I use a GC controller as the pro? I have a Mayflash GC adapter.

I'm not aware on how does work that device, but if it is similar to Nintendo official yeah, it should work, make sure it has the same vid/pid.

There is a switch on the back that swaps between PC and Wii U mode. Wii U mode is perfectly identical to the official adapter. I've tested it. How exactly can I make it recognize the GC controller as a Pro though? Or really any controller as a pro? I didn't see that anywhere. Is it a tag?

You touch the Wii U Pro in the left list, press A, then press A in the gamecube controller. Then press + to apply the changes.

Um, what? That wasn't too well explained. Thanks for sparing some time for me.

Left list? Where? What? I just want to use my PS3 controller on my Wii U as a pro controller. How can I do this? What menu do I this on? Do I need a different config file? What?! IDK.
