Hi,
I bought an new ps3 orginal sixassic controller to play gamecube games with it. if it was cord with usb cable the conroller works very good. but i had many problems to activate the wirelsess function.
after all i found a solution i would like to share if someone have the same problem.
I have tried the button combo L1 + R1 after starting a gamecube game (in both activitie modes). but the controller could not sync to the wii. after a few days an trials i have found a solution.
1. google and install the sixaxes pair tool for windows.
2. start the tool and connect the ps3 controller to the pc.
3. the tool shows the actuall master bluetooth adress that is written in the controller (the controller searching this hardware every time the ps button press)
4. in my case the bluetooth adress was 00:00:00:00:00:00
5. change the mac to the wii wlan mac of your wii (you can find it in the wii system settings)
6. after that connect the controller to wii and start a gamecube game.
7. now press the ps button until the controller is in -inactivity mode-. (the led flashes constantly)
8. press start till the controller is set as port 1.
9. press the buttons L1 + R1 to sync the controller to the wii. (the wii bluetooth mac ist now written to the controller memory)
10. after that unplug the usb cable
11. have fun with good old games and wireless controller.
please consider the readme.txt file that comes with the devolution app for more information.
i am not a programmer, but i think the ps3 controller memory have to be to initialize / format to work with the wii.
please do all this at your own risk. use this method only if the normal method dont work.
maybe the controller could not be used with the ps3 after this method. i have no ps3, so i cant test it.
thanks tueidj for this great software
