The VID and PID of your controller are different, edit the controller.ini and change those to VID=0E6F and PID=011E. then check if the values that change when you press the button match the ones in the ini, as they might be wrong too. The values for most buttons are the Offset (the "pair" that changes when you press the button, you count them from left to right starting at 0) and the Value that's shown when you press it.

The AnalogR/AnalogL use only the Offset and the Sticks have an Offset for each axis.

VID=054C and PID=0268, are what it already had in them;


[Dual Shock]
VID=054C
PID=0268
Polltype=0
DPAD=0
Power=2,01
A=3,80
B=3,40
X=3,20
Y=3,10
Z=3,08
L=3,01
R=3,02
S=2,08
Left=2,80
Down=2,40
Right=2,20
Up=2,10
StickX=6
StickY=7
CStickX=8
CStickY=9
LAnalog=12
RAnalog=13







when i tried switching them around to this it accepted, but when the game started i couldnt do anything with it,


[Dual Shock]
VID=0E6F
PID=011E
Polltype=0
DPAD=0
Power=2,01
A=3,80
B=3,40
X=3,20
Y=3,10
Z=3,08
L=3,01
R=3,02

Down=2,40
Right=2,20
Up=2,10
StickX=6
StickY=7
CStickX=8
CStickY=9
LAnalog=12
RAnalog=13



-also, are the offset supossed to keep changing as i press the button, they eventually stop at "FF"

As you can see in the post you quoted, I had edited my post a bit after I posted to correct the VID and PID because I had mixed them up. you must have read it before then. I also told you to check if the values were correct precisely because being a different controller, it wouldn't work in-game just after changing the IDs.

If the values go from 00 to FF then that button is analog, that means they're "pressure sensitive". that usually only matters with L and R (that's why you have LAnalog and RAnalog to set the offsets that change like that. The same happens with the Sticks.
 
i went to check the values and this happened -

Try using the HID test without the controller.ini; take note of the values that change and the offsets and then make a new controller.ini


the main problem im having with this, is the pressure sensitivity you were describing before, i cant get an acurate offset because every button i press turns into either FF or a series of random numbers,

If each button (X, O, [], etc) changes ONLY ONE Offset and it's not shared, you can either try using only the offset position for it (not sure it'll work) or you can use the offset with an FF value to use the button only when it's fully pressed. I've never read about someone using that kind of controller with nintendont here so I can't accurately tell you how to configure it, but try what I said before. It might work.
 
Is there a way to configure a xbox 360 usb controller for use with nintendon't (As I am not feeling like buying a Wii CC (Pro) or Wii U pro controller at this moment.)
I haven' t got HIDTest working on my wii for some reason... But has anyone tried this?

The only reported case of someone using an Xbox controller was by using an adapter for it. I'd rather buy a controller that i can use with everything and not just this one app.

That's why I bought the 360 controller, I use it on my windows PC all the time and it works with lots of games (and there are programms to simulate mouse and keyboard for games that don't) so it would be great if the wii could read the input of the 360's controller.

Windows is not everything. 360 controller does not support USB HID.

I was talking about "everything in the wii/wiiu" since I'm not sure there are many other homebrew apps that can benefit from using a Xbox controller through an adapter; so you'd be buying an adapter only for nintendont. On the other hand, buying a wii controller will let you use it with everything in the console and not only this app. Of course you'd either need to buy the mayflash adapter or wait until Bluetooth support is added but the "benefits" are more, IMO. It all depends on what you consider a better investment, just in case i'll quote the post from that user i mentioned.

I don't know if "This should be good" is a jab, because you think it's impossible, but for the interested.

I used my Wireless Gaming Receiver for Xbox360 (had it from a long time ago).

in conjunction with a CronusMax

http://controllermax.com/products/cronusmax/

I had tried it with the pc adapter alone but it wouldn't work. Figured I'd try the CronusMax since it's laying around not being used, and low and behold, it worked.

Be aware that this is the only person that has reported to have a xbox controller work with nintendont with that setup, so I won't be responsible if you go ahead with it and it doesn't work.

I wasn't planning on using any converters, I was just wondering if the xbox 360 controller could be used as a HID controller. I will probably buy a wiiU pro controller (that should work in vwii I think, right?)

If you don't want to buy any adapters, your only choice for nintendont is using a Ps3/ps4 controller or a regular pc gamepad (not xbox) since those are HID compatible and already use USB cables. the WiiU pro controller requires a mayflash adapter until bluetooth support is worked on, and ... honestly, I don't know if it works in vwii. maybe you should google about it.

My personal suggestion is that if you don't want to spend in an adapter for this, just get yourself a pc controller, though it will most likely be entirely digital without analog shoulders; or a ps3 controller if you want a more complete experience, i think those have the analog L/R working fine. Others will surely recommend different setups, like a GC controller with the Mayflash 3 in 1 adapter, etc. but it's up to you, really.

Ok, so I found this adapter from mayflash: http://www.mayflash.com/Products/NINTENDOWiiU/W009.html Could I use it with nintendon't. I rather have the pro controller do it as that will also be compatible with wii u titles like WindWaker HD.
 
I have tested and added "RedCard" PAL on the compatibility list tried on a normal Wii with Nintendont r1.127 and it works fine but there is a problem:

It automatically loads the memory card on slot B instead of slot A, so when you create a new profile it does in slot A by default so you can't save any settings/progress cause the game is still looking for a memory card in slot B.
 
yeah xbox360 controller and wii u pro controller arent hiddevices so without an adapter they wont work, the wiiu pro controller does not work on vwii so until nintendont has BT support it wont work either, you need adapters for this 2 controllers if you want to use them.
