3DSController
|
|
=============
|
|
A 3DS homebrew application which allows you to use your 3DS as a wireless controller for Windows.
|
|
|
|
### Setup and Usage
|
|
Firstly, if you want to be able to use the circle pad as a joystick you will need to install [vJoy](http://vjoystick.sourceforge.net/site/index.php/download-a-install). However, if you just want to use the buttons, this is not necessary.
|
|
|
|
Copy the executable with the extension that applies to your loader: `3DSController.3dsx` for Ninjhax, `3DSController.3ds` for flashcards, or `3DSController.cia` for CFWs, into your 3DS's SD card or flashcard's micro SD card.
|
|
|
|
Create file called `3DSController.ini` on the root of your 3DS's SD card containing the local IP address of your PC with nothing else, no new lines, etc, for example `192.168.0.4`. Refer [here](http://www.helpfulpctools.com/HowToCheckYourLocalIP.php) if you are unsure of how to find your local IP address.
|
|
|
|
Run `3DSController.exe` on your computer. If you are prompted, make sure to allow it through your firewall.
|
|
|
|
Start the application on your 3DS, there is no GUI, it will automatically try to connect to the IP address you put in `3DSController.ini`.
|
|
|
|
To make sure it worked, open Notepad and press some buttons on the 3DS, they should show up.
|
|
|
|
To return back to the Homebrew Loader, hold down Start and Select.
|
|
|
|
### Troubleshooting
|
|
Make sure your 3DS has internet access and is on the same network as your PC,
|
|
Make sure that the `3DSController.ini` is in the root of your 3DS's SD card,
|
|
Make sure that the `3DSController.ini` has the local IP of your computer, not your public IP,
|
|
Make sure your firewall isn't blocking the application,
