Hardware GCN NSO Gamecube Controller Bluetooth PC Support

It’s not like he’s taking someone’s big project changing a few variables and calling it a day

Yup, I think I'm way past whatever they have done

I also never stated that if code was taken from their repo that I wouldn't give credit where credit is due, other guy just assumed and eventually made himself look like a complete ass.

And since the name's of the exe are similar I can only assume that some code was taken from their repo
anyways, the credit tab was made!

Linux/steam deck version plox? Ideally using joycons 2 as a mouse

Sorry I’m a complete noob to GBATemp, how do I download your tool?? I can’t seem to find a link to download at all.

Also does your tool support gyro as well?

Of course, I know I can't make anyone in particular care about AI and code theft, but these posts I make aren't just for you, it's for others to know the context.

The difference between this project and others is this one actually works. which is ironic because this one uses AI and the others do not.

why are you so hung up about this either way, if you have that much of a problem then go create your own tool.

Lol, I have a doctorate in computer engineering and have worked at Intel, Microsoft, Meta:

Tons of professional devs use AI for coding. There's nothing wrong with that. If OP got something working and it's actually useful, then what the heck. Great job, dude!

Working on the ui now, then gotta do auto calibration for any controller. Then figure out gyro and then hopefully mouse support.

Multiple controller support is what I’m currently working on along with a controller testing page

Please do let us support you!!!

Cannot wait for this project to come to fruition, you are the only one atm getting NS2 controllers working on PC wirelessly with full feature support. I’ve scoured all of Reddit and other random forums looking for smth similar, so glad to have found this!

How long do you reckon it’ll take you to fully complete the project?

I'm sure it's something working, as generative AI models sometimes produce correct code. As they had just posted a video that seems to demonstrate a NSO GameCube controller being connected to a PC.

Actually, going back and reading this part...

I decided to check out that project: https://github.com/Nohzockt/Switch2-Controllers

Since a generative AI was used, it is entirely possible that this repo was used. I started the project and got very similar output to the provided screenshots:

It is extremely likely that this repo was used to make this alleged project. Even worse, this almost certainly would have violated the MIT license of the original project, which requires attribution.

This thread is not about a new project. This is a pre-existing project repackaged into something that the user claims to have made themselves "with the help of an AI".

This thread is about an AI slop fake project made by someone who doesn't know what they're doing, using tools that don't know what they're doing either.

I wasn't familiar with this project, but it works. And if it works, it's because whoever created it took the time to test it thoroughly. Regarding giving credit, that's perfectly fine, but don't argue about whether something was done with AI or not. Besides being actively used by experienced developers to integrate libraries (it analyzes classes and suggests how to use them, almost like using IntelliSense on a daily basis), while the developer learns the rules of how it should work, human participation is actively involved, which makes it somewhere between a derivative and a fully functional project. Furthermore, AI is sold, and just as you buy something, you should use it. The only rules when using AI are to respect the original licenses of the libraries used and to have an active human managing the code.

you already know I got help from AI, so why do you keep saying yourself?

There's your proof of what AI helped me with

You're dealing with Just-in-Time (JIT) problems. Many languages like Python aren't well-suited for this; they're only good for creating utilities, which isn't always ideal for real-time operation. You absolutely must work with a compiled language to reduce processing and improve latency.

I have a degree in computer engineering, and I use it too but not to the point that it would replace my real coding that's the difference. The problem with these types of people they cannot read code or spot errors which could be a simple line of code and spends countless hours or even days struggling trying to fix what a human could rectify in 5 min.

These type of people….. lmfao. You don’t know me at all. How do you know I’ve never done coding

“These types of people”

Feel free to make your own solution to share. Or maybe another genius idea..if you see an easy 5 minute fix…offer some constructive criticism and help instead of lurking and just leeching

You don’t know OP and not everyone knows everything

These types of people is crazy.

And yeah, a more experienced programmer may have faster output...

but a more experienced programmer isn't working on this are they? I'd rather the thing exist than not at all. I'm willing to bet that this won't be the ultimate solution and a "better" one will come around, but if it works, it works.

Claude wrote multi controller support, over 200 lines of code in seconds with minimum errors. Ai wrote over 200 lines of code before you could even open visual studio. I do this for fun and make no profit on anything

Can Claude write Linux support

 

[TheStonedModder]

Can Claude write Linux support

OP is open sourcing if it doesn’t already use a cross platform language someone could port it easily

Iirc OP is using Python so it should always support Linux ..

I’m not to familiar with Linux and VigEm, but google says it’s supported with wine possibly

If you’re using Python most libraries handle cross platform well

You usually don’t have to worry about wine unless you precompile a build to share, but even then you can get a Linux and Mac build if you have access to those.

For example because I have a MacBook I can share Mac releases alongside my windows builds, and booting into my steam deck lets me make a Linux build ezpz

All with the same script

—-
If you share the Python scripts directly and don’t bundle them, this is all a non issue

Counterpoint. There can be.
Considering the state of Windows 11 lately, I can't call anything M$ is doing right now "professional". I can definitely believe that 30% of their code is AI generated, it shows.

I use AI for coding myself but there is definitely a right and a wrong way to use AI.

What is this thread? Lol

Any update on the tool’s release? Really really excited for it

this kinda took a backseat, I started working on a mod for a game
