How to connect a Game Controller to PokeMMO

Recommended Posts

Hello everybody NintendoPSX here and I have a delicious bonus to help you play PokeMMO. Playing with a game controller. Now this can be done with either a PS3 controller, Xbox 360 controller, PS2 controller or a computer brand controller like Logitech or something. (Note all controllers MUST BE CONNECTED BY WIRE [uSB).

So let's get started. You're going to need a total of TWO programs to make this work so I will lead you through this tutorial.

http://www.motioninjoy.com/download First go there and download

32bit and 64bit all in one: site 1

Version 0.6.0005

Make sure you KNOW your computer's bit size. You can check by right clicking Properties on My Computer.

Once downloaded extract everything and run the Client EXE. When that finishes, make a Shortcut on your Desktop for easy use. Although you won't need to use it unless you wish to connect a different controller after setup. Now open the Client known as DS3 Tool.

A green client should open up with tabs saying Profiles and Driver Manager. Click on Driver Manager and then click Install all if you have any drivers that this client needs you to download. (Note: I had to install two drivers myself so I know this is safe). Once that is finished. Go back to the Profile tab and then connect your controller by wire. It should pop up on Connected Game Controller(s) with a bar going between 0 and 100%. Look at where it says Select One Mode and choose the controller that you wish to connect. Mine is PS3 so I choose that one. When you are done with that TEST to see if the controller works by either running a ROM OR click near the button of DS3 Tool Vibration Testing if your controller successfully vibrates that means it is connected and we are ready to begin the last step. You may close this tab as it is no longer needed.

Now you will be downloading a program called Joy2Key (JoytoKey). What this program innitially does is maps the keyboard buttons to the buttons on your controller.

Go to this site http://www.electraco...ish Version.htm then click one of the two download links at the top right. (They're both the same so it doesn't matter). Once you're done extracting and installing that, open up the client you will get a folder titled jtk374en make sure to keep everything related to Joy2Key in that folder. To make it easier you can put it on the Desktop as well.

Now here is where things get tricky. Make sure your controller is connected BEFORE you attempt to open this client or else it won't work. At the left rename whatever mapping you want this one to be (You can have several maps for several games; mine is titled PokeMMO). Now on the right you'll see Joystick One this is the one you'll be using so need to change that. If you scroll down you will see LEFT RIGHT UP DOWN and several buttons numbering all the way to about 19. Just map the LEFT RIGHT UP and DOWN to whatever directionals you use to move in PokeMMO. Mine was the arrow keys so I used that accordingly. Button One is essentially your "A" button and Button Two is your "B" button. Set all these according to what keys you use in PokeMMO. Now with the rest of the buttons you can be creative and set your Hot Keys or your Pokedex, or Bag or even Enter to get to chat easier. This part though is a bit of an experimentation as you need to figure out what buttons is what and what you actually want on the controller. When you finish that you're DONE. But PLEASE READ THESE FEW NOTES.

  • You must have Joy2Key open WHENEVER you wish to use the controller or else the computer will not be able to detect the controller on it's own for the game. You can minimize it onto the Taskbar.
  • I do NOT know how to make the Analogs Sticks work so unfortunately you will have to use the D-Pad only, but I find it more useful anyways.
  • You CANNOT type with the controller, you have to put the controller down to type in chat. It's not really an issue but I guess someone will be bothered by it.

And that is it. It should work. If you have any questions feel free to ask me NintendoPSX/RectusErectus in Channel 1 in game. Or reply to the Forums Post. Thank you and have a fantastic day.

Xpadder has been the solution for me.

Not only did I manage the most used buttons but I also got mouse functionality (Right Click is Left Bumper, Left Click is Right Bumper and mouse is the right joystick).

Also before getting the bike, I setup run key in toggle mode so I didn't need to hold it to run. Really made my experience 100x times better.

I use my android phone when im in bed as a controller with nJoy app.

It got arrowkeys, 4-6buttons (+ select, start) and a mousepad can be enabled.

Also you can switch to a keyboard so you can type in the chat. Tho it is slow to switch between and i don't like it but when im in bed i usually level my pokemons and being DND.

I've been using XPadder for years. Wonderful tool. It costs money now, but you can still find the latest freeware version online. I'll upload it.

The D-pad doesn't work for me...only the left analog stick. It doesn't work quite well in the game, if you only want to go up and down it works well but when you want to go right or left, the analog has to be directly left or right or else you will go up or down. I do not know what is causing this and it is pretty annoying. Any ideas to make D-pad work, because the analog makes it very difficult to move.

Edit: Nevermind, if you put the threshold at 60% it helps a lot.

I've been trying to get my controller to work for about a hour. Whatever I try the only thing I get is that the device cannot be found. I've updated the drivers manually because nothing comes up in motion in joy but it still doesn't show up and says waiting for controller to be connected. I'm using a FF-GP1 controller (the FFXIV controller) and cannot get anywhere with it getting to work so I can use it :( I was so excited when I saw this thread but it's just not working ;_; any help?

I personally use Xpadder and use my wireless xbox 360 controller with the wireless receiver. I set all my directions to the D-pad, then have all the different buttons mapped for A-B-hotkeys-Mouse1-Mouse2 on different buttons on the controller. And I have one of my analog sticks set to move the mouse. So this means I can easily play while lying in bed and can have other programs in the background that will shut the computer off in an hour or so if I fall asleep.
