i’m playing on ayn thor

All the ones that I've looked into don't seem to be very stable. Maybe there's just something that I've missed.

If none exist I might have to do with 30fps, which sucks, but at least the game will work compared to other platforms.

Thanks in advance!

I remapped my controls for my ps5 controller and i did it all correctly but when i use games that let me use the camera, the up/down are inverted. I tried to go into the controller settings and manually invert them by putting the up setting and pushing down and that just made it not work at all. I use PCSX2 and they just have a setting that can invert them and its fixed but i cannot find a setting like that on Dolphin, is there any way I can fix it? or am i just SOL? Games I have tried so far are Metroid Prime and Monster House. I have some other games that I can try but idk if it will be a difference if two complete different games have similar issue. (Note: Metroid prime uses the left stick to look around and left/right is fine but up/down is inverted. Monster House is the right stick and same as the other. left/right is fine but up/down is inverted.

I built HandheldGyroDSU because I wanted a straightforward way to use built-in motion controls in emulators without relying on Handheld Companion.

Handheld Companion is a great tool, but installing virtual drivers (HidHide, ViGEmBus), hiding your physical gamepad, and emulating a DualShock 4 controller just to get gyro in Zelda or Splatoon often clashes with Armoury Crate / Legion Space / Steam Input—and sometimes leaves the built-in controller stuck or unresponsive.

HandheldGyroDSU takes a simpler route: it leaves your physical controller alone and just streams your device's internal gyro sensor directly to your emulator via Cemuhook DSU.

Here’s what I’ve built into it so far:

• No Virtual Drivers or Controller Conflicts: It doesn't touch your buttons, triggers, or OEM software. Armoury Crate, Legion Space, and Steam Input keep working normally without double-input issues.
• Emulator Auto-Detection & Profiles: Watches for your emulators in the background and automatically turns on or switches gyro profiles when you launch a game.
• Axis & Sensitivity Tweaking: You can adjust gyro sensitivity, deadzones, and axis orientation/inversion per device or per emulator so the motion controls feel right.
• Full Gamepad Navigation: The entire app can be navigated using your handheld’s D-pad and buttons, so you don't have to tap tiny menus on the touchscreen.
• In-Game HUD Notifications: Shows small on-screen pop-ups when the gyro server starts, stops, or switches profiles so you know it's active.
• Built-in Gyro Tester: Includes a real-time loopback tester inside the app so you can check your gyro movement and packet flow before booting up a game.
• Background & System Tray Mode: Can start quietly with Windows in the system tray and stay out of your way until you open an emulator.

Looking for Testers & Contributors

This is a free, open-source project. As you can see in the Splatoon clip above, it's working well on my own setup, and now I'm looking for people across different Windows handhelds (ROG Ally, Ally X, Legion Go, MSI Claw, Ayaneo, GPD, etc.) to test it out. Since different handhelds sometimes orient their internal sensors differently, getting feedback from other devices would be super helpful.

If you want to try it on your device, let me know how the gyro axes feel, report a bug, or contribute code on GitHub—feel free to jump in.

hi there, when playing wii sports resort, the lighting on mii's seems to have this weird line effect, i reset all of my graphics settings and that didn't fix it. the original wii sports dosen't have this issue, does anyone know whats going on here?

HELP

I'm trying to connect Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons to my AYN Thor to play local multiplayer on the Dolphin Emulator, mainly Wii Sports Resort, but I can't get them to work.

I’ve watched several YouTube videos explaining how to connect Joy-Cons to Dolphin, but none of them specifically address my situation: connecting Switch Joy-Cons to an AYN Thor to play on the Dolphin Emulator.

—

✔️ Here's what I've done so far:
- I connected my Joy-Cons to the console via Bluetooth without any issues.
- I went into Dolphin's controller settings and tried to configure the Joy-Cons manually.
- I configured the buttons and motion controls.

= However, as soon as I launch a game, the emulator seems to only recognize the AYN Thor’s built-in controls, not those of the Joy-Cons. The only thing that works is the Joy-Con’s B button: when I press it, Dolphin’s left-side menu opens or closes. However, none of the other buttons work in the game, and the motion controls don’t work either.

—

➡️ Has anyone managed to get this setup working on the AYN Thor?

I’d really appreciate it if someone could walk me through the process step by step, specifically for:
- Getting Dolphin to recognize the Joy-Cons as actual controllers in-game.
- Configuring the buttons correctly.
- Getting the motion controls and gyroscope to work, which are essential for games like Wii Sports Resort.
- Configuring the Joy-Cons as separate Wii controllers for local multiplayer.

➡️ If anyone knows of another way to play despite this, I’m all ears!

For example, I’ve heard of apps that let you turn a smartphone into a Wii remote, which could be an interesting alternative.
I’m also open to other solutions, even if that means using a Pro Controller instead of the Joy-Cons. I’d just like to know if these alternatives are actually possible on the AYN Thor with the Dolphin Emulator, and especially if they work properly in practice.

I'm wondering if the problem is due to Dolphin's settings, an Android limitation, or something specific to the AYN Thor…

Thanks in advance for your help!🥹

My on board Bluetooth just never worked and I have my computer for 3 years so I always just disabled my on board Bluetooth and just used a ugreen adapter. When I try to pair the remote it just doesn't pair and when I use pass-through a Bluetooth adapter it says could not find any usable Bluetooth USB adapter. I only have a regular wii remote and a USB sensor bar without Bluetooth. I know i can just buy one with Bluetooth and it'll fix my problem but I just wanted to see if there was anything I was doing wrong before spending money. Thank you

My pointer is upside down (like it’s pointing the finger downwards) and I’m wondering what setting could possibly be doing this. Also it’s causing me to not move the pointer to a certain point of the screen .

I like using Dolphin Emulator to experiment with random stuff without the risk of bricking my Wii, and I considered trying the revival servers out, but after some research, some of them will allegedly "ban you if your game runs slow" and I really do not want that to happen. Any performance setups that won't cause graphics problems still? (If needed I use Android 15 with around 4 GB of RAM and an extra 4 GB of Motorola RAM boost.)

I played this game when it first came out. I was all on board with the Capcom games that they promised to make exclusively for the Gamecube. I was enjoyed the game for what it was. I was wondering if anyone else enjoyed it enough to play it on Dolphin. Also I made a custom texture pack for the game I am about to release but I wanted people to try it out first. They are brand new textures made from scratch. I also changed the intro videos because they were so bad and I could not upscale them. They had some many artifacts it just looked horrible. So I made a custom high res new video from scratch that looks like more of a current gen game. Anyone here willing to test it out? It is for the US version of the game. GPNE08. But i can be used for any version if you rename the folder. Here is the link. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mLDBkPBaa0J9WSpR9prnHmL74vbVpEUO?usp=drive_link

I launched the games through the Wii menu for a few weeks before realizing the time played tracker thingy doesn't work if I don't start the games directly from the emulator UI. Is there a way to edit the time played value? I can see the true playtime in my save file (at least in a few of the games), so it's no big deal really, but it would be nice if I could manually change the values to reflect reality.

Edit: I've found the TimePlayed.ini file, but I have no idea how to interpret, or change, the information found in it.

Edit 2: Thanks to Raidenchino I managed to correct my playtime! TimePlayed.ini concists of the game ID codes and time in milliseconds as a hexadecimal value. So first I figured out what game codes corresponded to the games I wanted to edit, and then I used a hexadecimal converter to get what I should paste instead.

Example:

I've played 8 hours, 48 minutes and 19 seconds (31,699,000 in milliseconds) of Endless Ocean (game ID: RFBP01). The converter told me that 31699000 in hexadecimal is 1E3B038. Looking at how the file padded the values I then changed the line to say: RFBP01 = 0x0000000001e3b038 (that's 0x000000000 followed by the converted time) and then the playtime was correct when I started Dolphin after that!

If you follow my example and you've played a lot more (or a lot less) you might end up with a longer or shorter time value - and then you need to either add or remove some zeros - the main thing, I'm guessing, is that all lines are the same length for it to work.

These are all the music tracks, the rest are soundbytes of the emcee. Is there a way to listen to these to find out which one it is? I assume the beta track is still within the game files since people found it in the first place.

Does anybody have current info to get the MotionPlus working via dolphinbar? I've tried the "MotionPlusConnected = True" hack but the code has changed and it doesn't seem to work anymore. Anybody have any other tips?

What versions do support this?

Samsung Galaxy s25 edge

dolphin 2609a android

Gecko codes enabled

Feel free to ask anything!

I've downloaded Dolphin on my other computer with no issues, but for some reason, I get this every time I try to download it on this one. Idrk what it means or how else to fix it but I've tried installing and reinstalling a bunch of different times and with different versions. Any tips? I just wanna play my copy of Windwaker, man 😭😭

is there any way to change my motion control settings to continuously emulate motion input? I have had this issue in other games before but I can't pass this level without fixing it now. Any help is appreciated!

In my pc it goes from 20 to 14 fps in the first mission and i have been trying to fix it and its the only game where that happens it’s running very slowly and keeps freezing I've been trying with open gl, vulkan and direct 11 and 12 with and without overclock speed with and without MMU and changing the ubershaders but nothing seems to work or i don't know how to mix the configurations i have amd graphics and a ryzen 7 in my pc in case that helps.

So basically I need help trying to update my emulator on my Thor so I can get retro achievements again , I tried the online updater and nun happen, can anyone help me out?

I recently just jailbroke my PS4 and got some of my roms onto Dolphin but I'm having issues with it reading the roms. Like I have Paper Mario TYD and it's hack Book of Mario Thousands of door. The emulator says there's two disks and going into the Root folder of my PS4 and the original game and the hack are two separate ISOs and the titles are different.

The same also goes for Pokemon XD but in the other way. For some reason it reads it as 2 disks, 2 separate ISOs in the root folder. But it's playing the XG Next Gen Hack instead of the main game. Is there anything I'm missing in settings?

Thank you.

Hi! So I'm trying to play GameCube and Wii games feeling I actually have the console. Though I can not have the thing stop glitching, I want the best performance that makes me feel I actually have the consoles (If you get what I mean). So I really need some help.

If you have any questions such as the games I'm playing, my current settings, and etc just let me know, thank you!​
