Would you add a settings option to disable music?
You can edit the source code, in data folder search the bgMusic.ogg and replace it with other you like or with an empty song for no sounds.
Or edit application.cpp or main.cpp (I don't remember) and there is a line at the beginning that says the music file and then there is a number in brackets (normally it is 50) you can write 0
Or @Maschell coul do it, but he is busy with the language setting
Or the easiest way, turn off GamePad volume xD
Bye!

HIDtoVPAD v0.9j

Changelog:
  • Nightlies will now be automatically uploaded to the homebrew app store
  • Added support for a settings configuration file
  • Added settings, now you can disable/enable rumble and the music
  • Added multiple languages. You can set them in the settings. Currently german and spanish (thanks to victormr21) are support. Translators needed!
  • Using multiple controllers of the same type now possible again

If you want to do a translation for hid to vpad, use one of existing .lang files as a template (https://github.com/Maschell/hid_to_vpad/tree/master/languages)
Make sure that your texts are not longer than the original english ones.

Hi! I tested your new release, and all is working good, but there is a bug, if you download the nightly, the folder is hidtovpad_nightly but the config file saves in hidtovpad/ so it created another folder to save it

The problem is, at this point in time, it is impossible to figure out which folder a homebrew program is running from, so folder and file names have to be hardcoded into the program.

The strings in the file are too long. They need to have the be same size as the english one.
I remade the translation, this time I made sure to not make the strings too long (I also checked on my WiiU, it looks fine)

Only the Raspberry Pi 3 has Bluetooth so I'm looking to get one next month alongside a Switch Pro Controller.
Then I would love to set the Pi up as an always running server for the HID to VPAD network client.
Would be great if anyone who has knowledge for this would help me here once I received it.
If I got everything to work I will write a nice and noob friendly tutorial so everyone can benefit. :)

I've been trying for a little while to get keyboard + mouse to work but the mouse inputs have some issues. The keyboard keys seem to be working fine and the mouse is detected but for some reason it only detects up and down movements. Not only this, but moving the mouse left and right is what makes it move up and down. Moving the mouse up and down doesn't make any inputs. I've tried 2 other mice and they have the same issue. Anyone have the same problem or have a solution to this?

If you want good mouse/keyboard emulation, you can try the network client in combination with software (by mapping keyboard/mouse to XInput). I've listed some tool tha work in this issue:
https://github.com/QuarkTheAwesome/HIDtoVPADNetworkClient/issues/11#issuecomment-292778879

Could emulating a wii remote be implemented in the future? I would like to trick Call of Duty into thinking I am using a wii remote.
In theory yes, shouldn't be that hard. But it needs to clever way to integrate it into the GUI, currently I don't know how this could be achieved userfriendly.

Having a little difficulty with the Switch Pro Controller. On Bayonetta, Bayonetta 2, pressing forward only causes Bayonetta to walk instead of run. Running works in all other directions. Not sure how this affects other games. I have tried editing the deadzone values to see if it was hangback on the stick. Didn't solve the problem. Hopefully someone here has a fix.

There are some posts about analog stick's max range a few pages back here. You might look them up although they were for the Dual Shock Controller it should be of help for ya.

@Maschell it seems the network implementation is causing connection issues in Splatoon, I tested several times playing with a GC controller and after about 30 seconds in a match the "unstable connection" message appear, tried again this time disabling hidtovpad and had no problems, strange enough I'm not using the network to link the controller.

Thanks for reporting. I'll add a option to disable the network client, hopefully this fixes this issue
