Since the Gamestop controller was made for the Xbox 360, it likely does not use the HID interface. I do not own a Gamestop 360 controller. I am assuming that it works just like an official Microsoft Xbox 360 controller, which does not use HID. Also, I do not know if it will ever be supported by Nintendont. I hope it will, since an Xbox 360 controller is a great controller.
 
I have a question, it would be possible to add anti-aliasing to Nintendont to reduce jaggies? I think it is not possible but I don't lose anything by asking.

Well, we have more power, but I dont think with the internal rendering resolution of 640x480 that would help much...
 
drakorex, according to http://controllermax.com/products/cronusmax/ the CronusMax does not require special drivers. It probably makes the controller work with the HID protocol.

Can't it be the wired version as well, I have an Xbox 360 controller I use for my PC as it's less problematic than the wireless, generally speaking. If it's a workaround, then that'd be great news for this app.

v1.72 doesn't boot Shadow The Hedgehog NTSC-U. Tried erasing nconfig, nloader, with MCEmu, w/o it, nothing, justblack screen.
Can anyone confirm if further versions do the same?
 
r74 is crashing Wind Waker on my Wii too. After pressing start it crashes to black or turns off the Wii.
I deleted nincfg.bin off both SD and USB before trying the first time so it isn't that.
The last revision I had no problems is r66 (apart from the wrong date on the savegame). But I've only tried r69 and r74.

The reply function didn't work correctly, sorry about that.

The website doesn't have any specific details, but I think the CronusMax works with all types of Xbox 360 controllers. Unfortunately, I don't own the CronusMax. I am just going by the information on the website. (I'm saying "I don't" quite often today, aren't I? :huh: )
 
ShadowOne333 I have finished my cache.txt for Shadow The Hedgehog :) , but I didn't tested it if it works, so tomorrow I will say if it works or not, the game boot should be faster because I've cached all the boot archives, but I can't cache all the levels because it will happend the same thing like Super Mario Sunshine, I think this cache put to their limits to the Wii RAM, it has 220 lines and it keep 19MB aprox, but it doesn't matter.
 
Confirmed... Madcatz 360 USB controller is HID... 'cause I attached it to PC and these are the VID & PID values

hid-madcatz.jpg


VID_0738
PID_4716

But when I test it in HIDTEST on Wii...it stays loading
"Getting list of HID compatible devices..."

Very interesting indeed, but I wonder if Nintendont still thinks it's using the Xinput API instead.

but it's an hope... at least it could be possible to add support on future loader or hidtest (.dol) ?

If the devs needs more info about the hardware values (other than pid/vid); just ask me... I really want to get this controller working with Nintendont
 
Someone who has completed the Resident Evil Code Veronica X in Nintendont review and tell me you used? Is that going near the end of disc one but the game freezes.
I have v1.72

Ignore the message. The v.1.74 solved the part where my game froze.
 
v1.75
Fix disc swapping.
-Also clears cache when swapping discs.
Use corrected ARStartDMA for all games for interrupt timing. (Original attempt
missed an exchange for r6/r7).

I only tried the disc swap with Tales of Symphonia when starting a New Game from disc 2.

Is the disk swap automatic or do you have to press a certain button?
 
testing 1.75 and it seems my GC controller is acting weird.
it stopped working in Mario Strikers, it worked with MArio GP 1 until the race starts then I can't move!!!

Edit: the other games work fine, so it's only Mario Strikers and GP problem with the new controller code
 
Tested (v1.75) and confirmed "disc swap"(automatically) worked for
Tales of Symphonia (NTSC) as well as Resident Evil Zero (NTSC).

so my hdd got corrupted and i lost all my saves :S does anyone have a nintendont metroid prime save? i saved right after i had the spider ball if anyone has any save so i dont have to start from scratch i would apreciate.
 
Seeing as disc-swap is now working how feasible would it be for a patch that fixes games that load an external .dol for collection/demo games? It's not mentioned in the list "Features Nintendont doesn't support yet". DM never got that fix but had a workaround by having a disc inserted, I imagine that doesn't apply here.
 
Hey guys, I have the ps3 ini on the card and its plugged in. but it still won't work.

Is there anything I have to do besides plugging the cable in and pressing the PS Button?

Black Australian Wii, latest nintendon't, playing Wind Waker.
 
Has any one experienced any issue with Resident EVIL 2 NTSC-U / Resident Evil Rebirth NTSC-U version?
I tested on my vWii with 1.75 version and using PS3 pad
I can create memory card and get to see opening movie clips and explore the game menus on both games, but as soon as I start playing it kicks back to WiiU menu. [I didn't click select button or any button combo]
