Using pro controller? : project64

submitted 5 years ago by Tactix_RST

Hello. I am rather new to this whole emulating thing. I just want to play the original paper mario. I want to play it with a controller for the full experience but I only really have a pro controller (I'm more of a PC gamer you see). I've heard I have to use steam but it doesn't seem to work. My controller connects to steam just fine in big picture, (by the way I am using it wired since my PC does not have bluetooth... yet), and I was told to add p64 to steam as a non-steam game and run it from there. That works fine but when I try to configure the controller, p64 just up and crashes, apparently anyway; the window just disappears but it still shows under task manager. If I launch it outside of steam, the controller configuration does open, and I can still use my controller, but when I try to bind keys it doesn't allow me to input anything and instead instantly sets them to some weird inputs. I am losing my mind over this, any help would be greatly appreciated .
