What is it?
|
|
This plugin is for use with an N64 emulator that supports input plugins
|
|
through Zilmar's input spec.
|
|
Some emulators that support it are: Project64, Apollo, 1964, TR64
|
|
|
|
Main Features
|
|
Up to four N64 controllers supported
|
|
Handles as many game controllers as you can plug in (you may have to tweak
|
|
the compile options for huge numbers), plus 1 keyboard and 1 mouse.
|
|
Full support of any controls you can see through DirectInput
|
|
Emulation of MemPaks, Rumble Paks (via DirectInput Force Feedback),
|
|
and Transfer Paks (except GB Tower in Pokemon Stadium games)
|
|
Complete Adaptoid support
|
|
Up to 256 Configurable "modifiers", in 3 different flavors
|
|
System-independent controller profiles
|
|
As released, this plugin is compatible with Zilmar's Input Plugin Specs 1.0
|
|
and will work with all emulators that support this spec
|
|
|
|
Requirements:
|
|
A computer with Windows & DirectX9.0 or higher installed.
|
|
An emulator
|
|
Some games wouldn't hurt
|
|
You need the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86)
|
|
|
|
Installation:
|
|
Consult your emulator documentation as to where to place the DLL file
|
|
(usually its the "plugins" folder or something similar)
|
|
Choose the plugin from within the emulator; again, consult the documentation
|
|
if you don't know how.
|
|
If you have a language .dll, place it in the same directory as your emulator
|
|
e.g. project64.exe

Known Issues:

|
|
GB Tower doesn't work in Pokemon Stadium games (not likely to be fixed; just use
|
|
a GB emulator to play the games)
|
|
No voice pak emulation (only one game supports it anyway)

|
+ Experimental Xinput support
|
|
+ Fixes to GB Battery support
|
|
|
|
Release 2.1 rc3:
|
|
+ The last of the shortcut bugs should be fixed. Switching paks should work
|
|
just fine; the plugin now inserts a 1 second delay so that the game
|
|
can detect the change properly.
|
|
+ Message window no longer sucks CPU cycles
|
|
|
|
|
|
Release 2.1 rc2:
|

|
|
work perfectly now.
|
|
|
|
Release 2.1 rc1:
|
|
+ Many many little bugs fixed, and minor tweaks. This should bring the
|
|
release versions in line with the tweaks from the DEBUG line.
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
issues with mempak or transferpaks
|
|
+ changed transfer pak MBC5 code to use proper MBC5 rom bank switching, and
|
|
also fixed up MBC3 rom bank switching. This may fix some lingering
|
|
transfer pak issues. Also did several tpak speed optimizations
|
|
(thanks guille007)
|
|
|
|
Release 2.00a:
|
|
+ Fixed mouse assignment in Interface. Again.
|
|
|
|
Release 2.00 (rabid goes crazy):
|
|
/ Large portions of the code completely rewritten.
|
|
+ Better detection of devices; more joysticks should work now, as well as steering
|
|
wheels and things that aren't strictly "gamepads"
|
|
+ .a64 notefile import and export works much better now
|
|
+ N64 controllers can now get input from multiple gamepad type devices
|
|
+ Now able to assign a key, mouse, or gamepad control to as many N64 control
|
|
surfaces as you like
|
|
+ international language support
|
|
/ device selection for keybinding no longer needed; devices list now shown as
|
|
"Force-Feedback Devices" under ControllerPak selection (pick Rumble, and
|
|
tick the "RawMode" box)
|
|
/ no longer possible to send FF events from multiple controllers to the same FF
|
|
device (this shouldn't have worked anyway)
|
|
+ capture mouseclicks properly in Controllers tab (disable button clicks while
|
|
polling)
|
|
+ release exclusive mouse while in config menu (fixes a mouse bind while locked
|
|
issue)
|
|
+ add independent X/Y mouse sensitivity
|
|
+ changed absolute mouse support: now choose between Buffered (default from before),
|
|
Absolute, and Deadpan (control only moves while you move the mouse)
|
|
+ various optimizations, bugfixes, and spelling fixes
|
|
+ LOTS of documentation added to the source; it should be more legible now
|
|
+ rewrote controller save and restore (underlying CONTROLLER and BUTTON structs
|
|
changed...)
|
|
/ Button mappings and modifiers will need to be reset on first load
|
|
+ now rewrites mempak and transferpak RAM data to disk almost immediately after
|
|
writing to controller (1.83 and previous didn't save the mempak until RomClose)
|
|
+ now possible to map shortcuts to buttons and axes as well as keys (be careful)
|
|
+ tabbing within the config window actually works now
|
|
+ can save and load shortcuts to a file
|
|
+ Transferpak MBC5 support fixed (Pokemon Yellow, Perfect Dark), also ROM files should
|
|
load much faster now
|
|
