    Hacking Gamecube Adapter Support and FAQ

    The link for the OSX driver should be changed to https://github.com/area/osx-wiiu-gcc-adapter/ , which now has all four ports working and an install script so that you don't have to open Xcode every time.

    Hacking Gamecube Adapter Support and FAQ

    This, as well as the fact that the Mayflash adapter apparently gives the same behaviour in Dolphin when in PC mode, leads me to believe the problem is either in Dolphin or OSX. Thanks for letting me know! Shouldn't do. I've not done it myself, but that's only because I'm testing more than I'm...

    Hacking Gamecube Adapter Support and FAQ

    Cool, I'll check this out when I get home. Skimming the source, it looks like the way he's getting around the problems I encountered is by setting each port up as its own HID controller, which makes sense. If his version works for all ports though, I may well just stop developing mine. I think...

    So I splashed out all of 80p for 'Joystick Show', which is only used for testing joysticks, and doesn't suffer the jumping around issues that Enjoyable does, as it's just displaying buttons and gauges. With my driver, it sees a single joystick with 24 axes and 48 buttons. All four ports are...

    Ideally both, but if you feel uncomfortable with trying to restore the user id, then I'm sure I could make do with just the join date.

    Weird that they don't have the full range. Do games expect to receive this nonzero analog value for an unpushed trigger? Left unchecked, it seems like this would prevent the controller working in anything other than Gamecube games. The memory leak is fixed in my repository now (this was true a...

    Sadly, I don't know of a terminal command to do this. Not even unloading the kext does it - you have to restart. The controllers are simply reporting a nonzero value even when the triggers aren't being pushed - this isn't anything to do with being based on the Xbox controller, as far as I...

    Ah, a good old memory leak, just like mum used to make. No need for the full error report, I can reproduce this on my end and - crucially - I can tell whether the error is happening before the kernel panic appears. You can do this by running watch ioalloccount Load the KEXT, and watch the...

    Hardware The Improved GameCube Adapter from Mayflash

    I would be very interested in seeing the USB HID descriptor for this adapter if/when someone could provide it.

    Hacking Gamecube Adapter Support and FAQ

    In my mind, that is what it should be doing at the moment, at least based on the second part of http://eleccelerator.com/tutorial-about-usb-hid-report-descriptors/ - I agree that it's not, and I don't know why! I should stress that this is all new territory for me - kexts in OSX, USB HID...

    I see the same, actually. Axis 6 is one of the triggers - I think it's just a consequence of how the triggers start at the end of their range, but I agree it's annoying! Glad it's working for you guys though. EDIT: Hmmm, multiple controllers are a bit screwy in Dolphin. It's clearly due to...

    That's loaded correctly. As it stands, it just appears as a HID controller - there's no PrefPane, and you'll have to use something to map buttons to keyboard buttons for things that don't support HID controllers (which is sadly a surprising number of games). I've been using Enjoyable for testing.

    I think your version of OSX is the issue. If I'm right though, it's an easy fix (assuming that I've not used anything that's only introduced in 10.10... no guarantees - this is all new territory for me). Instead of trying to load the kext, run kextlibs /tmp/GC.kext This should give you the...

    Old SKOOL Tempers.. Raise Your Hands!

    Came back yesterday to post about my progress on making a driver on OSX for the Wii U Gamecube adapter, to find my account from 2002 gone. No-one had nabbed my username in the meantime, at least, but it's sad to see my join date gone.

    I'm a long-term, if sporadic, user of GBATemp. I wanted to post today, and tried to log in, only to find my account totally missing. My old posts can still be found (see e.g. this thread from 2002 or this one from 2009). I was hoping that recreating this account would reassociate my account...
