Installation Process #19

Closed JJMississippi1 closed 1 year ago

JJMississippi1 commented 1 year ago

When I installed the GCAdapter Driver Installer, I dragged the icon to the application as it said in the instructions but when I opened it, it was the installer and not the driver. I can only get the installer but never the driver. I have a Mac Ventura

Can you provide screenshots of what you're seeing? That doesn't sound... possible.

 I would drag the app into my applications and then it opens to this

I got the Driver activated but Dolphin still doesn't detect the adapter. Should I take the adapter out and plug it in again or should I reboot Dolphin?

ryanmcgrath commented 1 year ago

Dolphin or Slippi Dolphin?

And yes, you have to unplug and replug - the guide notes this.

Dolphin, I did that and it still didn't work. I restarted my Mac and did the same thing but nothing different.

The adapter is from Syntech and there are no switches on the adapter. I flipped the toggle on the dropdown menu and it said it was activated after letting it be accepted by system preferences.

ryanmcgrath commented 1 year ago

Hmm, I don't know if anybody has ever tried a Syntech with this driver - frankly I've never heard of the brand.

Can you check what the hardware is identifying it as by going to:

 Sorry it took so long, I was doing finals for college. Here’s a screenshot of what you told me to get to.

If you're attaching it via Email, GitHub won't accept it - needs to be attached via the Web UI.

Does this work?

ryanmcgrath commented 1 year ago

Yes, though - can you click on the gamepad rather than the USB line?

Wrong Screenshot, sorry

ryanmcgrath commented 1 year ago

So that unfortunately looks like it uses an odd vendor/product ID combo, which is why the driver doesn't work.

Have you tried configuring it as a Standard Controller in Dolphin? That's the other way to go about this, and is fine for 99% of whatever you'd be doing - it's really mostly Melee players that might care about native response times.

Ok it worked, thank you
