Using Steam controller with Project64

This guide will walk you through on how to get the Steam controller to work with Project64.

What you need

You will only need Pokopom's XInput Pad Plugin and Project64,

The plugin can be found here: Pokopom's plugin[ngemu.com]

Download: Pokopom v(version number).zip

Project64 can be found here: Project64[www.pj64-emu.com]

How to install the plugin

You need to go to the "Plugin" folder in your Project64 folder
-Should look like somehting like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\(Project64 version)\Plugin

Extract "padPokopom.dll" to this folder.

Open up Project64, go to options->settings->plugins
When in the plugin settings, change the input to Pokopoms plugin. Hit okay, then we are done installing.

*Important* You need to add Project64 as a non-steam game to your library, you can do this by pressing the prompt on the bottom left corner of the window on steam.

You can optionally change the settings of the plugin options->Configure controller plugin, but I perfer to just edit the steam controllers settings.

Configuration

I made a configuration that has all the n64 buttons mapped to the steam controller, with a shortcut to fullscreen the emulated game, it can be found here: My config[pastebin.com]
You can also find it in the community configs, to find it by right clicking project64 in your steam game list, goto controller configuration, then community and find (No Mouse)'s config.

To install, copy the code from the pastebin link and paste it into a new text document, save this file as (whatever name).vdf and place this file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\controller_base\templates
Then right click project64 in your steam game list and press controller configuration, then press y on your controller and then goto templates and select the one you named.


If you want to configure the controller yourself this image will help, because it shows what XInput buttons are mapped to the N64 ones. (Screenshot from N-Rage's default plugin)

Yes you need to add it as a non steam game.

[Clockwork Brain]

Do you have to open Project 64 through steam for this to work?

[VLT Enjoyer]

Not sure sorry, haven't used M64Py

[Water Ｖａｐｏｒ Merchant]

Do you know if this method will also work with M64Py? Or is Pokopom's plugin only configured to work with Project64?

[Sparky]

For whatever reason, the program just crashes the moment I open the controller plugin.
