This project allows you to use your GameCube controller plugged into your wii as a Generix XBox360Controller in your PC (assuming you have an ESSAdapter).

As a Ocarina of Time speedrunner (speedrun.com profile) I use what we called an ESS Adapter to be able to visualize our GameCube controller's inputs in a software like NintendoSpy.

This project cames up when I realized that I have a GameCube controller indirectly plugged in my PC but I can't use it in any other emulators. So I've developped this little tools that convert the input signal from a GameCube controller COM port (from my ESS Adapter) to a generic XBox360 Controller.
I'm now able to use my GameCube controller in softwares like : Bizhawk (for randomizer lovers <3), Dolphin, or more generally any Steam games.

As this tools relies on the fantastic ViGEm project, it's needed to install it's last release from here.

1. Download the latest release of this project from here and start the ESSAdapterToXinput.exe application.
2. In the opened window you can pick your controller in the first ComboBox and then you can pick the associated COM port from the second ComboBox (exactly like NintendoSpy !)
3. Press the Plug button and your're good to go !

This project is heavily inspired from NintendoSpy to retrieve the controller input value from the COM port, so thanks a lot to jaburns and all the contributors to let me achieve this part with their source code.
