Intro:
Ok i know this tutorial has already been made but i thought i could make it a bit more detailed since i barely got it to work with the first tut (some stuff are left undescribed which makes it hard to understand)
READ THE NOTES BEFORE YOU START WITH THE TUTORIAL (bottom of the text)
Requierments:
Dolphin emulator (any Revision), PadSimple plugin and nJoy plugin (i used 0.3 so i suggest you use it too
)
Tutorial:
1.Start up Dolphin.
2.Go to the CONFIGURE panel. (you can find it on the toolbar or you can go to the top and look for options and in options the first thing should be configure)and then go to plugins and where you have the padsimple or nJoy plugin click the little arrow to drop it down and first go to padsimple and set the controls you want on the first controller.
3.open njoy and you can use a simple USB controller (it looks like a ps2 controller) and set the buttons where you want them (it might look like its not doing anything when you set a key but you actually are wetting something
(just i never could get the D-pad to work... most games dont need it.
4.Once you finished setting up your controllers you you have to go to the dolphin folder and open user>config>Dolphin.ini and open dolphin.
5.Scroll down until you see a piece of script that looks like this
SIDevice0 = 150994944
SIDevice1 = 0
SIDevice2 = 0
SIDevice3 = 0
and there might be some stuff between this one
Pad1Plugin = Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll
Pad2Plugin = Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll
Pad3Plugin = Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll
Pad4Plugin = Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll
6.Take script #1 from the bottom and copy it over the first piece, and take the second piece of script and copy it over the second part i just showed you.
7.Run dolhin and go multiplayer and check if it works, if it doesnt feel free to post you problem (i had lots of them until i got it to work flawlessly
)
Script #1
SIDevice0 = 150994944
SIDevice1 = 150994944
SIDevice2 = 150994944
SIDevice3 = 0
Script #2
Pad1Plugin = Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll
Pad2Plugin = Plugins/Plugin_nJoy_SDL.dll
Pad3Plugin = Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll
Pad4Plugin = Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll
Note #1:
This configuration is only made for 2 players (since most games dont support more than 2).
Note #2:
Make a backup of Dolphin.ini if you get something badly wrong (but that cant happen if you pay attention.
Note #3:
Once you change the configuration of the buttons and copied the script correctly after that DO NOT try and change the buttons again because you are going to copy the second script again. (whenever you go to configure
and you change the pad plugin it will generate a new script in the Dolphin.ini that say that all 4 players will use the (in this case) pad plugin (keyboard)
and when you go to dolhpin.ini and you reconfigured the stuff for the keyboard you will notice that the script changed all the players to keyboard
Pad1Plugin = Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll
Pad2Plugin = Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll
Pad3Plugin = Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll
Pad4Plugin = Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll (the pads are the 4 players, and the Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll is what plugin the player is using.
Now this might sound confusing so just take my advice and first change the controller exactly how you want it and then change the script and dont change it any more (if you want to change it and you make a mistake somewhere post you problem here!
Note #4:
All the credits go to CacoFFF (since he's the one who found this out
)
I just wanted to make a more detailed approach for people who don't have a lot of experience with scripting.
Note #5: Dont worry you cant make a major mistake if you have a backup of the file...
I hope that i helped someone out there who want to play 2 players.
Final note:
This is the first version of the tut i will be adding pictures to make it easy to follow and feel free to ask any question.
Will be adding steps for 4 players.
Cheers,
Uber
