[Guide] Full Analog Support with Sixaxis PS3 Controller in N64oid - Android Apps and Games

First tutorial ever... so bear with me...
I am writing how I got true analog on n64oid with a sixaxis ps3 controller, while also using the c-buttons. This configuration works perfectly for Mario and Zelda, but not Goldeneye.
I originally had a problem where when I wanted to use true analog in N64oid, I couldn't use the D-pad. This is how I fixed it.
Firstly, I'd like to say that Sixaxis Pair Tool did not work at all on my Windows 8 x64 computer. Therefore, I installed Motioninjoy and followed this well written tutorial:
http : // www . motioninjoy . com / wiki / en / install / latest
Until I got to the "Getting it working - Bluetooth mode" step. Instead, I entered a "Custom MAC," my phone's "Local Bluetooth Address." I had to enter the MAC in reverse. For example, my phone said something like "00:15:83:4f:6c:b0," and I entered "b0.6c.83.4f.6c.b0"
Take note that I replaced the colons with periods. Then I pressed "Pair now." I then unplugged my phone from my computer and followed the instructions from inside the Sixaxis Controller apk on my phone.
To get Sixaxis Controller 0.5.4 to work with Pure Analog, I went into Sixaxis Controller's Preferences, Gamepad Settings. I checked "Enable Gamepad." Then I went into Edit Mappings. I realized that I had to change the D-pad buttons to values other than what the analog was set to, becuase in n64oid, the left analog registers as the D-pad. Also, I realized that an N64 doesn't use buttons like L3, R3, L2, R2, Square, Circle, and Select.
Therefore, I changed:
Up: L2
Right: R2
Down: Y
Left: X
I left everything else as default.
I wanted the C-buttons to function as the D-pad on my ps3 controller. Therefore, in N64oid, I think I pressed R3 for all four d-pad buttons and I mapped controller 1 as:
D-pad Left: Unknown 106 <--Again, the D-pad buttons can be any button on the controller you won't use; I used R3 for all the buttons.
D-pad Right: Unknown 106
D-pad Up: Unknown 106
D-pad Down: Unknown 106
C-left: Button X
C-Right: Button R2
C-Up: Button L2
C-Down: Button Y
Start: Button Start
Button A: Button B
Button B: Button A
L trigger: Unknown 106 <--Who uses the L trigger. I've always used the z-trigger; Therefore, I pressed R3 for the L trigger as well.
R trigger: Button R1
Z trigger: Button L1
Analog Left: DPAD left
Analog Right: DPAD Right
Analog Up: DPAD Up
Analog Down: DPAD Down
As a result, I have full analog support on N64oid. I can finally walk as Mario and controlling Link is PERFECT!
Also, my appologies if this post is in the wrong section.

I play n64 on my phone a fair bit so an optimum solution would be nice. I will give what you have said a try.
Currently my set up is to have the analogues using the touch emulation for both the n64 analogue and c-buttons.
like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

I can't stand the touchscreen's simulated controller. I purchased an iControlPad, but its analog nubs are worse than the PSP's analog nubs.
I might consider purchasing the Fling Mini though! It provides feedback to the touchscreen.
I can tell you that using the ps3 controller with full analog support with the phone feels PERFECT.
Also, there are two ways that I found where you can attach your phone to your ps3 controller similar to the way the icontrolpad attaches to your phone. One way was as simple as using a PS3 controller keyboard and mounting the phone to the keyboard with sticky tack. The other way was posted here on xda-developers where a guy made a 3d model in solidworks and a 3d printing website prints the holder for 30 bucks. The guy who made the 3d model doesn't get paid for the purchases.

What is wrong with mapping the analogue to the touchscreen? (I do make the on screen buttons invisible when playing)
Currently I have DIY-ed a phone mount onto my contoller using some cardboard! I am considering using a rubber phone case and a couple of thin long hinges in my newer 'prototype' for a more refined look

You can also use the right analog stick as the C buttons by mapping the 'Right Analog x-axis' and 'Right Analog y-axis' to 'Disabled' in the Sixaxis Controller app. They will now fall back to keyboard emulation, so you can set the IME to Sixaxis Controller and map them as keys in the emulator.

c button mapping to right analog stick... done deal.
hey. this is my first post on this forum. i had to help people out with this problem, as i too, had problems figuring this out.
here's how to set the c buttons to your right analog stick for use in n64oid.
this is what i found after a whole crapload of searching... this dude is awesome. and saved me from going nuts trying to figure it out myself.
this if from a guy named zachary. he wrote this on nov 1st of this year. thanks zach.
heres the site its from. hope this complies with your rules, xda dudes.
------scrach that... cant post links yet. oh well. at least i can still get the message across.
"After a ton of tinkering
I finally got everything to work perfectly in N64oid. I even got the C buttons to link up to the right analog stick up down left right which was a massive relief.
You need to go into Gamepad Setting> Edit Mappings> Disable Right Analog X and Y's. ------(x and y axis is what he means)
Then go to Keyboard Emulation> Key Mappings> 1st> Edit> Analog 2 L R U D, put in something like U I O P. ------(L-left, R-right etc... U I O P-letters on the keyboard)
Plug in a keyboard via USB OTG. ------(or connect a bluetooth keyboard... im assuming that would work too. if not please correct me)
Head over to N64oid> Settings> Input > Key Mappings> "> and in C- L R U D, put in your U I O P. Voila! Enjoy!" ------(by "put in" he means press the u, i, o, and p buttons on the keyboard into the corresponding c-left, c-right, c-up, c-down key maps)
one thing he didnt mention is you have to have the "Use input method" box checked in n64oid for it to recognize the right analog stick as the "U I O P" (or c-l, c-r, c-u, c-d) buttons. the "use input method" option is in the "other settings" menu of n64oid.
i hope this helps anyone who has been frustrated with this issue. im off now... gotta play some zelda on my s3. (;

my xperia s
my xperia s haven't enought energy to use some gamepad :|

Cant get n64oid to recognize second ps3 controller. HELP
I cannot for the life of me get 2 ps3 controllers set up with N64oid. I have 1 working great but I cant get my N64oid to recognize the second controller even though it shows #2 on the controller itself. It just acts like a #1 controller. I am using Sixaxis. I REALLY want to play mario kart against someone. Please help.

Right analog stick for C-buttons via USB OTG
Hello!
I am currently trying to figure out how to configure the right analog stick from a PS3 controller to use as the c buttons. I am connecting it via USB OTG. I had everything else working except for the right analog stick. I read the forums that it works if you use the Sixaxis Controller app but I DO NOT want to root my device (Galaxy Note 2). I am assuming there is a way to do this effectively without having to root the device and to use the controller with the OTG cable. I would gladly appreciate any help!

Android - PS3 controller left stick mapping issue - epsxe / Sixaxis Controller

I'm trying to get my PS3 controller working in epsxe, so far everything works great except the left stick. It's mirroring the dpad while still working as an analog stick.
I checked the settings in both Sixaxis Controller and epsxe and it's mapped out fine, dpad is set to dpad and the left stick to x and y, but it mirrors the dpad no matter what.
Is there anything I can do?
Thanks for the help.

Remapping Bluetooth HID Gamepad Buttons possible?

Hi,
I bought the bigben stg one tablet controller.
Sadly the controller has some mapping problems in HID Mode.
First the mapping is wrong not like on a xbox 360 controller.
Left is B
Up is A
Down X
Right doesn't work at all. Some input debugging tool says "keycode 98 button_c"
Is there any way to remap these buttons ? Dumpsys says the controller use the generic keylayout.
Second problem the l2 and r2 trigger also doesn't work.
The debug tool says the buttons trigger axis 14 axis_rz from -1 to 1
And there is a little bigger deadzone for example in limelight app. Local games like dead trigger doesnt have this deadzone problem.
Does someone have any idear how to fix this?
Thx & greetings

[Q] Mapping the Keyboard to Controller?

I apologise if this thread is in the wrong place but I'm not sure where else to go. I'm also sorry if my question is mind numbingly stupid, I am very new to this tablet and pretty much any kind of controller mapping of any sort.
Earlier today I was playing some games through gamestream that require a wireless keyboard and mouse to be playable. If, however, I hold down Y with my gamepad mapping enabled I can access the tablet's onscreen virtual keyboard and press W, A, S, D etc on it - allowing my character to move. It's impossible to play the game like this of course, but this got me thinking.
Is it possible for me to map the tablet's W, A, S, D keys to different directions of my left analog stick? So when I move my left stick up, it would act like pressing W on the keyboard and so on? Same with mapping my triggers to the mouse clicks? This would allow me to play virtually any FPS on my PC using just this controller so I really hope there's a way to do it.

[Q] BT Controllers and Mapping

Hi,
not sure if im doing this on the correct forum though
Modern Combat 3, latest version, ive read this game doesn't support controllers, but for some reasons, it recognizes the left analog left/right and dpad left/right as "Previous and Next Weapon" when my BT ipega controller is connected, and if I use touchscreen mappers like gamekeyboard, it overrides and goes together, when strafe/move left/right you also change weapons. why? is there something I can do to stop that?
thank you
MC4 works flawless though...

[Completed] [Q] Can I configure my dualshock 4 buttons across android?

Hi, I was playing around with my dualshock 4 controller and my HTC one m8. The controller works fine for emulators where you can map your buttons, but when I went to play Modern Combat 5, the buttons were not configured correctly and there is no way in the game to set up button mapping. Im wondering if there is a way to change the button mapping in the system so it works across all games because right now its pretty messed up, for example the physical start button is mapped to left trigger for whatever reason. The controller is connected with a usb otg adaptor and the phone is unrooted and running the latest release of android lolipop. Any help appreciated!
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Your best option is using the Sixaxis Controller app from the Play Store, it allows full remapping. I can't post external links but it's very easy to find.
No response in two days, thread closed.
