Hardware [Tutorial] Combine both Joycons into a Single controller on your PC

[Damon_girl]

I need help connecting my joycons to the computer. I'm using Windows 7 and no matter what I do they just won't connect. How do I fix this? I've looked everywhere and found no solution.

You can connect the joycons to Android though.

what? I heard it was possible, that kinda sucks, so why doesn't it work?

I don't have an android phone so I don't really know, I just read about it online. I'm having such a hard time connecting my joycons to the computer though. :/

so it could be either way, it may or may not work, welp, I guess it'll be a plus if it does, this is what I read http://www.polygon.com/2017/3/7/14842312/nintendo-switch-joy-con-controller-pc-mac-android would be intresting if someone could somehow get a program to utilize the hd rumble

I've been trying this for a few hours now, but no luck
When I replace UCR.ini in the folder and start UCR it tries to load 100 windows, which instantly disappear and never starts UCR.

I'm having the same issue as above. Any solutions?

 

[BlancBG]

As a tip, if you want to use them for XInput only programs XOutput can be combined with this to make them compatible with literally everything (including network hid-to-vpad).

Since this thread exists, I'll ask. When I plug my charge grip into my PC it detects and shows both joycons. Is there any way to actually use them, because it shows all their buttons but doesnt actually work cuz they wont turn on.

There is, however I believe it to be linux only for now. Still, if you want to check it out: https://github.com/shinyquagsire23/HID-Joy-Con-Whispering/tree/master/uinputdriver

Yeah, the UCR.ini you provided doesn't seem to work

Sick, here is to waiting then.

Just make your own, the programs pretty self explanatory, and it would take 20 minutes max. I made mine way before I saw this guide.

Thanks man, worked like a charm.

Also, if some of you are interested in using the joycon for Steam-games (fallout 4, skyrim, etc.), use x360ce instead of UCR.

XOutput is far easier to set up and works pretty much the same. I'd assume things like Dark Souls would need x360ce, however, as that game has horrendous controller detection that latches on to the first controller it finds, and never lets go.

I was gonna make a angry post about how your .ini didnt work but I got it to work by launching it in administrator mode in windows. It closed itself but it was in the task bar after and I could open it from there. Thanks fam
