VC Control Stick Mapping

[sicko]

I have finished a few adapters and will finish the rest tomorrow. After that I'll contact everyone for payment and shipping etc. I'll test the adapters over the weekend and ship them early next week.

I have made an N64 firmware that has OoT, MM, Master Quest and Super Mario 64 mappings + 2 general mappings (with these it's like the Raphnet adapter), so that's what people will get. The GC version has mappings for OoT, MM and Master Quest.

Sounds good! Can't wait to try this out!

I should have contacted everyone that messaged me they want to buy an adapter.

I'm gonna make a webpage with info (selecting mappings, updating it, etc.) about the adapters later. I'll also post firmware updates on there.

I'm out of microcontrollers and cases at the moment, but they should arrive soon. So if you decide to place an order right now, you'll have to wait a bit again.

Hopefully people will start receiving these new adapters soon. I haven't explained how to select the mappings yet.

For the N64 version, hold the corresponding button when plugging in the adapter (in a Wii that's on obviously) to get the corresponding mapping:
D-UP: OoT VC
D-Down: MM VC
D-Right: OoT and MM GC
D-Left: SM64 VC

For the GC version:
D-UP: OoT VC
D-Down: MM VC
D-Right: OoT and MM GC

There's also settings for the triggers for the GC version, by holding L and a corresponding button:
L + D-UP: No modification at all, just one on one conversion.
L + D-Right: VC like triggers in OoT and MM GC
L + D-Down: OoT and MM GC like triggers in VC

I can't speak for all of the mappings, but for OoT anyway, this is really amazing. I've always been extremely picky about the joystick and I cannot even tell the difference. Really great work on this whyieyesya!

That's really good to hear! Thanks!

I may have opened up a can of worms by doing this, but I decided to finally bring these adapters up formally at SDA. In the past, I kind of beat around the bush a bit, and since I'm having serious thoughts about running MM again, I felt like I should bring it up again and be as honest, clear, and direct as possible about what these adapters really do and what possible advantages they might have. The topic is here. I know a lot of people here don't care about SDA anymore, but I'd appreciate it if you guys took the time to weigh in, since ZSR obviously allows the adapter and the adapter was primarily made for the N64 zeldas.

I actually think this is pretty interesting. I'd hate it if my adapters would ruin the fun of people that don't use an adapter (maybe that's also one of the reasons I made a GC version).

Quote from the thread:

As long as it doesn't let you do anything that wouldn't be possible with a stock controller then I don't think it's an issue.

This is of course a tough one. There's only a handful of people that can actually somewhat consistently angle change on VC with a GC controller.

wonderful!!!

This shouldn't affect most of you anyway, since most people in the Zelda/Mario communities don't really care much about SDA anymore anyway. So don't yell at me for this; you guys can still use the adapter regardless of what SDA says.
