Homebrew Official HID to VPAD

[MikaDubbz]

AH!! I thought the game name thing was a bit too easy and had no idea that happened as I hadn't went into any other games after playing those titles.. Thanks for the info then and sorry that wasn't the answer!

Nah its alright, I appreciate the thought all the same

@Maschell sorry if this has been asked before over the years. But is it possible to alter the config file for the settings that change the GamePad controls with Hid2Vpad, to only enable the changes to controls when you start a specific Wii U title? I want to change the GamePad controls, but ideally only when I enter one specific game I have installed.

I am no dev, but this is my simple idea.
Write a homebrew module that reads the title ID upon launching a game
and overwrites the HIDtoVPAD cfg file with one specifically for that titleID.

How to use HID to VPAD Lite (the plugin) ?

I'd like to use my Gamecube Controller as a Gamepad without having to go through the actual app, so I can load other plugins at the same time.


Also, can I use it for Aroma ?

I created a config for the new Retro Fighters Brawler 64 NSO edition. To use it you have to connect it to your PC and use the network client and the controller has to be in Dinput mode. This config maps the C buttons as the right stick so it works perfectly with N64 VC games.

Do i have to map my controller after every wii u start up? When I shut down and re-start, the mapping is not saved... ( i have a generic N64 usb, that I had to make a config file for)

Is there a plugin version of this app compatible WUPS so that I can use this and other plugins (such as SDcafiine or PureClient) at the same time? I keep seeing people talk about it but I’ve not found any releases except for the HBL .elf release.

I don't understand how the HID Test data can be so different to the data expected in the controller .ini file.

I maybe understand the PID and VID entry but the rest doesn't correspond at all.

Surely the .ini should have a list of commands - up, down, left, right, A, B. that I add the output from the HID Test to.


i.e press UP on pad in HID Test, write down output. Fd09

Go to .ini file on computer, look for the up line - add Fd09

Repeat for all inputs on the pad.

I've created a config that goes in sd/wiiu/controller folder that works with Cthulhu Multi input circuit board that was popular with people building their own joysticks back in the late 00s.
