Homebrew Official HID to VPAD

Can you emulate the gyroscope of the gamepad with a controler with similar motion controls? Like the dualshock 4, for example.

Maschell made a version that used the DS4 gyro, but wasn't happy with the results, so didn't include this feature in the main release: https://twitter.com/MaschellDev/status/900372028213088256

The source code for this branch is available (and isn't far behind the master branch): https://github.com/Maschell/hid_to_vpad/tree/DS4GyroAndTouchtest
but there isn't a compiled version, and I haven't managed to compile it myself. Several people have expressed an interest in trying it out. Would you be able to have a go at compiling it?

Update April 2020:
New member jacobsson was kind enough to build it and post it here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/n4az6yepme20g7c/hidtovpad_ds4_gyro.zip?dl=0

I managed to get it to load exactly once. Then I turned off the console to add a config file to the SD card and it's only given me a black screen since then. I hope you have better luck @kradrats @crhonox @Slash.

You would run GC games with Nintendont, in vWii mode. So HID to Vpad won't work (it's Wii U mode only), but Nintendont itself will understand the same config files. The first post of https://gbatemp.net/threads/nintendont.349258/#Controllers tells you where to put them.

Dang, so I would have to make a whole nother Drive space for GC on the vWii then, because the GC games I already have are locked onto my Wii U formatted drive.

Will there be controller support for the faceoff wired switch pro?

No, it seems it should Just Work.

I haven't tried playing GC injects (made with TeconMoon's WiiVC Injector 3.0.1 - I assume that's how you've got GC games on a Wii U drive?) with any controller other than the Wii U Gamepad, but AIUI, you can use other controllers if you choose not to use the Gamepad.

It should work in the same way as for Wii U games with HID-to-Vpad, but the config files need to go in a different place for Nintendont to find them.

No idea. Why don't you try it and report back? If you haven't bought this controller yet, I'd check whether your supplier accepts returns in case it doesn't work, but I believe many places still do.

google the ini file
you might find it

Ybzij · Apr 10, 2020

Hi, I make an ini file to work on Mayflash Magic SPro adapter. The GDrive link also includes Mayflash Magic NS Adapter.

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1rT6ZCbgmI10ydo7EhJZ5NQ1jF8hS7hz-

I also made a so-so tutorial video on how to make your own controller work on HID to VPad.

I want to ask if it's possible to emulate Wii U Pro controller for Players 5-8?
Thank you to the team who make this app possible.

Stay safe guys.

Yes for some games I used the tool for that. And I tried using my ps3 controller directly connected to the console, and I would always hit yes to use the gamepad, But I never tried hitting no, Because it would black screen each time.

EDIT: It still black screened..

Is there any way to map a Wii u pro controller for Ds emulation on the Wii U? I can't stand using the chunky Wii u game pad for most of the games I play. Does someone have a config?

PS. Sorry if this has been asked before

It has been asked before (@Missingphy, @YukidaroPunch, how did you get on?), and should work.

You should be able to map the Pro Controller to the Gamepad without any config. Connect the controller, open HID to Vpad, click on the gamepad tab and press any button on the Pro Controller when prompted.

Someone asked about this on the Network Client thread and it seemed to work for them. Otherwise you could force the Pro Controller to appear as an Xinput controller using WiinUPro on your PC, and connecting using the Network Client.

As far as I know this is not possible without a usb adapter (ie magic-ns).
I tried to remap a wii u pro controller to act as a wii u gamepad just right now with the latest hid to vpad release, no success as is recognized as a bluetooth (as intended) controller. So, no, we need a usb adapter or maybe someone has a mod release or any configuration file that really works.

Hello Guys, Why hidtovpad doesnt works on twilight princess or its me?

FlameKat53 · Apr 15, 2020

It doesn't work for me either @Amezti

It works only in Wii U gamepad emulation. Wii U Pro controller does nothing (tested in HidtoVpad and Wii U plugin System).

jacobsson · Apr 18, 2020

I got a request to build a version of hid-to-vpad based on the DS4GyroAndTouchtest-branch:
The build can be downloaded from here or here.

Disclaimer! Use/Test on your risk: I have not tested build myself yet since I have no prior knowledge of Hid-to-vpad.
