Can someone explain to me like I’m 5 years old how to change the controls in Dolphin UWP retail for Xbox Series? thanks.

Specifically, there’s no button assigned to “shake Wii more” for some reason (and no it’s not L3 or R3)

I just want to be able to assign a button for shake.

afaik, you have to change them on the computer, then transfer over the config file.

I don’t know how to transfer it though. Everyone says put the changed controller settings into the config file, but on my Xbox via ftp I’m not seeing any sort of configuration folder with Dolphin. The folder see,s to be called Vappypub for some reason and there’s no config folder.

I'm not sure if you need to create the folder still or not, so I can't help further. you used to have to create the config folder by going into that small menu with the L3 and one of the center buttons.

It’s explained in this video


Sorry but my question isn't answered at all

-I'm specifically talking about retail. Dev mode appears to have totally different steps

-my emu (1.12) doesn't have this option to create a "Dolphin emulator" folder

Can you Change the default configuration folder to usb? as explained in the video?

Edit: just read you don’t have that option, as soon as the files are back online to download I’ll give it a try and see what options I get

Dev and retail will use the same config if you put it on external. It may not use the same location for games if on external, since external is drive d on retail and drive e on dev mode.

afaik, you have to do so on dolphin on the pc, which means syncing the controller to pc, which is a major pita or lack of convenience.

I thank you for your answer, however, how do I do this?
I saw the video guide posted above on how to set the controls, i.e. copy the "Config" of the emulator from the PC to the "Dolphin Emulator" folder on the Xbox stick, only I don't have that folder in the stick (probably because I downloaded the emulator without Dev) and even trying to create it myself doesn't change anything (yes I've already tried).

I'm not sure. one of my config files work, but the other didn't. you could say something is wrong with this method.
