#2274 Third Party Classic Controllers

[Anonymous]

Originally created by: ergin...@gmail.com

Hello,

Same issue from the following bug report continues:
https://code.google.com/p/usbloader-gui/issues/detail?id=2065

Whenever I start/restart USB Loader GX with my 3rd party classic controllers attached, it crashes with a core dump just like the bug report above with a 20 second count-down.

This page gives insight to the cause of the problem as related to libogc and suggests a recompilation. But I am not experienced enough to prepare the environment and compile:

Other launchers (CFG USB Loader, Wiiflow) apparently don't have this issue and start normally with a 3rd party controller attached. So I assume they have somehow managed to solve this issue. But as (in my opinion) USB Loader GX is superior to them, I hereby request you to please address this issue once again.

I am using Wii (not Wii-U), USB Loader GX latest version rev.1232, CIOS d2x v10.

Regards.

To the above commentator (@AGT...@gmail.com):

I have overcome this problem by downloading devkitpro, applying the above-linked patch to the source code and recompiling USB Loader GX.

Besides, USB Loader GX now also has a compatibility issue with Nintendont (Gamecube games emulator/loader) settings as explained below with a patch to overcome this problem:

Speaking of which, if you require 3rd party classic controller support because of Gamecube games, the latest Nintendont (v.2.265+) now has Nunchuck support, which somewhat eliminates the need for classic controllers:

So long story short, I could successfully embed the abobe two patches to the source code. If you wish (and trust my goodwill), I can share the latest dol file I have compiled here.

I just compiled a working version and added it to the ticket h.ttps://sourceforge.net/p/usbloadergx/issues/2363/ and updated the notes here: h.ttps://gbatemp.net/threads/how-can-i-compile-usb-loader-gx.169078/page-4
