Homebrew 3DS Controller

[Micheleuno]

Start+Select works for me (10.1 E n3ds menuhax). Are you using hax 2.5? (Lets you use HANS, screenshot with home button, etc.)
If so, you can use it's generic way of escaping from any homebrew (L+R+B+Down). I don't see why start+select wouldn't work though.

If you're still on hax 2.0 it might be an incompatibility with the newer ctrulib this was built on (maybe? that's all I can think of that's changed.)

Oh that worked for me, thanks a lot

I´m using vJoy with 16 buttons, x360ce, and the developer console in Portal, yet while x360ce detects the 3DS, Portal doesn´t detect it. I´m using the latest official version and I have been able to use it previously with Don´t Starve Together. What can I do?

 

[Phanton]

you can use the keyboard pressing L+R+X
if you configured one feature to one Key in the keyboard, you can use that feature by pressing the key in the tactile screen

The keyboard on the 3ds doesn't have esc neither

3DS Controller is a 3DS homebrew application which allows you to use your 3DS as a wireless controller for Windows.

As of version 0.6 it supports:

- All of the standard buttons on the 3DS,
- The additional shoulder buttons of the New 3DS,
- The circle pad, New 3DS control stick, and touch screen can be used to move the mouse or control a joystick,
- Using the touch screen as a keyboard (press L, R, and X to toggle),
- Custom key bindings by editing the PC's 3DSController.ini (buttons can be mapped to either keyboard keys or joypad buttons),
- Custom port - make sure the port in PC's 3DSController.ini and 3DS's 3DSController.ini match,
- Controllable throttling amount,

To do:

- Support for the circle pad pro,
- Screen streaming from PC to 3DS,

Download here (source code also available).

Instructions of how to use this are included in the README file.

You should Change/Add option to make the mouse start (Move) from where it is on computer screen, and not set position from where you press on DS Touch screen

Nintendo should have got their act together and allow the 3DS be used as a controller on the Wii U.

Well, you can use it as a controller on the Wii U... but only for one game...

A port would be great for android since Edpjoy doesn't want to work for my phone

I'm getting 15% and 16% on my server then goes back to 15%. I see 1600/90000 which go up to 1699 then down to 1500 and so on infinitely :\

Portal/Source Engine should let you bind the joystick controller, right? Don't bother with x360ce, just use it as a joystick (or even just as keyboard buttons) and bind them in the settings menu.

Try update your drivers. I had consistent BSODs when compiling a browser recently (so a very big job), and fixed it by updating my bios. Only do this if you know what you're doing, though.

It's not really built for android, but hey if someone wants to make another server that takes the same inputs then they're welcome to.

What are you talking about? CPU usage?

When using JOYSTICK1 on the circlepad with UNDERTALE , i can't move up Frisk yet i can move him down , left , right etc ... (w/ the circlepad)

Any fix ?

o3DS 9.2.0-20E

 

[Isaggi]

I can't open the PC client, I'm in Windows 10, using the 0.6 version. It gives me this error.

 

[ChristianFlores]

When I use it none of the buttons do anything. But I have a black screen and did everything in the troubleshooting section.

 

[Magsor]

I really want to say thanks for this. Using it on Mac OS X using wineskin it works great!! Too bad the 2ds buttons are too small for my hands but I thinks it will be great for my 6 year old son.

I'll check it out (maybe related to up/down being reversed - though I don't see why down would work, and I don't remember if 3DSC corrects this?)
Personally I just used keys to play UNDERTALE. If you're using my 0.7.1 version, here's the config I used (also allows mouse control, for starting the game or etc.):

Spoiler

Port: 8889
Throttle: 2
Mouse Speed: 4
vJoy Device: 1

Circle Pad: KEYS
C Stick: MOUSE
D Pad: KEYS
Touch: MOUSE

A: Z
B: X
X: C
Y: NONE
L: CLICK
R: RIGHT CLICK
ZL: NONE
ZR: NONE
Start: ESCAPE
Select: NONE
Tap: NONE

Left: LEFT
Right: RIGHT
Up: UP
Down: DOWN

Pad Left: LEFT
Pad Right: RIGHT
Pad Up: UP
Pad Down: DOWN

C Stick Left: NONE
C Stick Right: NONE
C Stick Up: NONE
C Stick Down: NONE

(Sadly, the arrows seem to only work if you have numlock off. Remember to open the keyboard for the Mettaton EX fight!)

I can't open the PC client, I'm in Windows 10, using the 0.6 version. It gives me this error.

You might need the Visual C runtime (not entirely sure which version, maybe 2010?). It may be a different error though - I can't read that language, sorry! Also make sure you have the right vJoy installed if at all - 0.6 and up use a different version to 0.5 and earlier, and the older one isn't compatible with Windows 10.

Does the command prompt on your computer say 3DS CONNECTED!

I'm surprised it works through something like that, good to hear!
