I want to play Hyrule Warriors multiplayer, but I don't have the spare money to get a WUPC, and the Wiimote controls are awful. Is there any way to use a USB controller as a second controller?
The thing is, HW doesn't take the Classic Controller. If it did, I'd have no problem. The only controllers it takes are Wiimote & Nunchuck, Gamepad, and Pro Controller (NOT CLASSIC CONTROLLER PRO). So right now it seems like I'm up the creek without a paddle.You could go on eBay and buy yourself a (something) > Classic Controller adapter, I know there's ones that will do all sorts of weird things (like plugging a Genesis controller into the Wiimote). No guarantees for quality; but anything is better than the Wiimote controls (shaking for normal attack). Do they mysteriously stop working every now and again for anyone else here? It's awkward to suddenly stop having the ability to attack.
Working on it:I think the current controller patcher is only affection the gamepad (and/or first player).
we should ask @Maschell about support for other players, or controller type.
Working on it:
I simply have 2 WiiUs =) One for hacking and one for playing (Bought one back in the days where you needed a <=5.3.2 one (instead of complaining that there is no public >5.3.2 exploit ))
Hell I'd get my hands on a second Gamepad if this would work.I have the same set up
Wouldn't it be great again to do what "nintendon't" with the dual game pads?
They teased us with it, documented it in the SDK, but left it out high and dry.......
Well, an awful lot of the coreinit code seems to have dual gamepad support, which is nice. It's just a case of whether the console will actually make the connection. Stuff like VPADRead should carry right over, might even be able to have its own framebuffer with a bit of patching.
