handle the dance mat case #805
Conversation
#527 is solved by this commit. I needed to pull in the changes from here: #778 to get it to build. in my environment (for reference) I needed to add a couple things to PATH: /cygdrive/c/devkitPro/devkitPPC/bin:/cygdrive/c/devkitPro/tools/bin I tried launching from usbloadergx but for some reason wont loader but loading nintendont from the homebrew channel and launching Mario Mix this solves the problem - so I am quite certain this is the solution and it is possible. I am guessing the crash when loading from usbloadergx has more to do with the build environment. I had a hard time getting it to build. The actual code changes to make it work are quite small but the generated dol is about a MB larger, than the existing official one, so i am guessing devkit has a bunch of stuff that wasnt in the old version. The fix is here, it just needs a little work to be integrated by someone who knows the code and build environment much better Added ability for dance pads to exit back to HBC by pressing the four corner buttons simultaneously. X, Y, A, B. this requires 2 feet and 2 hands and is unlikely to happen by unintentionally.

when will this get merged? |
From my perpspective it is ready to be merged.. but its not up to me.. A couple weeks ago, I rebased it.. so it is up to date ... |

Does @eku have the power? 🙂 |
@carnage702 has the power! |

Hey there. For anyone who's interested, I just made a fork of Nintendont including this change (and a few other changes I made): https://github.com/AnthonyRyuki/Nintendont The only problem is, when trying to quit a game, it will just hang for some reason. |

Will this get merged? Im kinda in a DDR Mario Mix mood rn |

Please, I went through all kinds of trouble getting my dance mat connected to my family wii edition, with a GameCube usb controller adapter, only to find out this issue exists and it makes my setup unusable. I would be grateful if someone can merge or look into this feature. |
I wish it would be merged too ... not up to me. If you want a build that has this change.. I'll send it to you later today |

nintendont.zip keep in mind that this will be a version of nintendont built back when i last rebased this branch.. so it might be missing some commits since then. but i dont think that should make a difference for you. I would rebase this.. but honestly, i dont even have the build environment setup.. it was such a PIA before because it required old version of devkitpro that wasnt easy to user./setup.. and there was little to no documentation... i feel that the code changes to implement the feature are simple enough that it should easily be merged without breaking anything else.. but for some reason it never gets merged.. I dont see why not.. it definitely solves the problem and is relatively isolated/trivial code that wont break anything else. |
This implements support for GC dancepads with GC HID usb adapter for Mario Mix thus resolving: #527
