I don’t have an Xbox controller. Lets try something else. Which is your Wii U firmware?
hey it is the most recent 5.5.3. i will keep trying with the network client aswell but i have bluetooth connection issues with my computer. i have deleted and reinstalled my bluetooth. the bluetooth connected to my controller for a bit then didnt work on next start up so i decided to focus on the 8 bito hoping that would be the simplest and quickest way to get the controllers working.
thanks for your help

so when i plug in my ps4 via usb into my computer and connect the client network to my wiiu the controller comes up in the window on my network client window in my computer but it says no configuration on my wii u. do i have to manually install controller configuration into the hid to vpad file on my sd card?

yea i got it working . thank u for your help
With ps4 controller? Because I’m planning to buy one of those but i need to confirm that it works. When you press the button to emulate a Wii U pro (or game pad) is it detected as a switch pro controller or as generic usb pad?

i got the ps4 working over the network client.
i hope somebody will figure out how to get the 8 bito working over the wiiu though that would be ideal for my setup

Hey!
Here's what you need to do:

Install HIDtoVPAD normally
Get a configuration file, and put it in SD:/wiiu/controller/ (example: SD:/wiiu/controller/8bitdo.ini)
Open HIDtoVPAD
Choose the controller you want to emulate -- but if you choose anything other than the gamepad, you actually need one of the controller and need to connect it. (make sure you have a configuration file for the controller you want to emulate if you have something like the 8bitdo which isn't immediately supported when you connect it.)
Now, if you

a) have a USB controller or whatever it is, just plug it into the wiiu, choose the controller on the gamepad and click A.

b) have a bluetooth controller, go to the about section in FTPiiU and find the IP address. download the network client (I just googled it to download) and connect to the IP address shown on the wii u. Then, choose the controller you want to emulate on the gamepad and click A.

After that, if you want to add any more controllers, add them.

Now, just click + on any screen to apply the patches. This will take you to the Wii U home menu. If the controllers don't work, click the TV button.
Remember, you cannot run any other homebrew at the same time. (but I THINK loadiine has the thing built in... not sure though.)

(the network client also works for xInput controllers)

does with work with an 8 bito adapter with a ps4 controller?

"Double Use" button mappings are completely broken if you ignore the default configuration and try to customize the mappings:

https://github.com/Maschell/control...e-controller#changing-the-double-used-buttons

It's too bad. Otherwise, this would be an extremely useful program. (By the way, there are errors in the examples.)

Code:
DOUBLE_USE                      =    true
DOUBLE_USE_BUTTON_ACTIVATOR     =    GC_BUTTON_Z

VPAD_BUTTON_PLUS                =   GC_BUTTON_START
VPAD_BUTTON_MINUS               =   GC_BUTTON_START

DOUBLE_USE_BUTTON_1_PRESSED     =   VPAD_BUTTON_MINUS
DOUBLE_USE_BUTTON_1_RELASED     =   VPAD_BUTTON_PLUS

Both Plus and Minus are activated with Z and Start instead of exclusively.

is there a way to make the xbox 360 (or xbox one) wired controller work when directly connected via usb to the console?
i only get them to work using the network client, which introduces some delay...

I bought it from aliexpress and I found the same one on amazon...I can't post an hyperlink but is the same housing as the original nintendo adapter but without logo and with the switch for PC or WiiU on the back.
if you can specify the brand that would help.
