If you click the GCPad icon and select one of the two PS3 options, you should see a list of buttons that would be found on a Gamecube controller along with some clickable icons.

Hmmm well i dont see any gamecube option just those two and a keyboard option im using the newest version well its say Dolphin 3.0-201-dirty whatever that means. You are supposed to select a gamecube button then press the corresponding button on your controller.

The games I tend to play from Feral I also tend to want to play with gamepads (no not the strategy games, I'm not a strategy gamer).(11-18-2011, 05:09 PM)Fennecat Wrote: (11-18-2011, 05:02 PM)TheodoreBears Wrote: Well the problem is it doesnt, is says in the corner its register and ready to use, but when i go to the GCPad icon and click the drop down menu it gives me two ps3 options on is DInput/0/PLAYSTATIONВ®3 Controller and the other is SDL/0/PLAYSTATIONВ®3 ControllerД«ut when i try to set up the inputs such as up and down i get no response, is there any way you or someone could give me a full detailed run down on how to set this up I still prefer to play those with keyboard and mouse. On the other hand at least most of the games I've played from Aspyr I wouldn't want to play with a gamepad anyway like FPS games. Using keyboard emulation on every single title is a waste in my opinion. Once you do this and connect/reconnect your controller to Steam, youвЂ™ll get a prompt to name your controller. Aspyr typically supports less (less than a handful of models) and the few Ubisoft games they ported themselves support none. First, open Steam, enable Big Picture mode, click Settings, then Controller Settings, then place a check next to the controller(s) you want to use with Steam. Here I don't use keyboard emulation for ANY game.ДЇeral gets a thumbs up for supporting all that and a wide array of controllers. this too is impossible via keyboard emulation. Not to mention if a game supports the analog shoulder buttons for stuff like driving. For me it's native controller support or just use keyboard and mouse. this is because WASD is inherently digital and it stays digital when mapped to a thumbstick. The problem in my opinion for emulating keyboard and mouse with a gamepad is it doesn't give you precisely what makes those games work better with a controller.
