What's new since v0.6.5

Pro Controller mode

  • Works in games that read controller input directly instead of through the standard library. Madden NFL 13 is now playable in Pro mode. (found from my testing [GO BIRDS])
  • Fixed an issue where some games only picked up the controller after opening the Aroma plugin menu.
  • The Wii U Menu now accepts the controller as a Pro Controller so that you can navigate on the TV.

Screen dimming

  • The screen no longer dims when you pause for a minute or two, and the fix now survives trips to the HOME Menu, which was quietly switching dimming back on.
  • Dimming returns to normal about 5 minutes after you stop using the controller, so an idle console still behaves like normal.

Logging

  • New Network log and Verbose log settings. Both are off by default, so the plugin no longer sends anything over the network unless you turn it on.

Install / update

Copy wiiredx.wps to sd:/wiiu/environments/aroma/plugins/, replacing the old file if you have one, and reboot. Your settings carry over. (saved on the SD card)

Pro Controller mode (experimental)

If a game ignores the controller, switch to GamePad mode, which works in nearly every game.

Known issues (working through these still)

  • The controller sometimes drops out for about a second after closing the HOME Menu, then reconnects on its own.
  • The Guide button can't close the HOME Menu. Use the Close button on screen.
  • Pro Controller mode depends on how each game detects controllers.

Tested with an Xbox One S controller (045E:02EA). If yours doesn't work, open an issue.
