Description

Game Name?
Donkey Kong Country Returns PAL

Game ID?
SF8P01

What went wrong?
upon launching DKCR with 2 wiimotes connected and refreshed, the first wiimote correctly lights up its first led and is immediately usable in the game. but on the second wiimote all 4 leds light up, and selecting "2 players" results in a "please connect second wiimote"-message, so the second wiimote does not seem to be connected. this can be corrected by hitting ALT-F6. dolphin then displays a "wiimote 2 connected" message and the leds on wiimote 2 go out with only the second led remaining. now everything is working

this is the only game i encountered this problem with.
also, it happens using microsoft as well as toshiba bluetooth stack.
turning speaker data on or off in dolphin's wiimote settings does not have any effect on the problem.

What did you expect to happen?
i would expect both wiimotes co correctly light up their LEDs and to be usable immediately on launch of DKCR - just as it's like on other games i've tried.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  • connect 2 wiimotes
  • start dolphin, go into wiimote settings an hit refresh to make sure both are connected
  • start DKCR
  • all four LEDs on second wiimote should light up
  • select "2 players" in the game menu.
  • a message should pop up requesting to connect the second wiimote
  • ALT-F6 fixes the problem and connects wiimote

What version of Dolphin were you using?
3.5-1210

64 or 32 bit Dolphin?
64bit

What version of Dolphin used to work?
3.5-471 definitely works.

What Operating System were you using and what are your hardware
specifications?

  • Windows 7 x64
  • Original Nintendo Motion Plus Inside Wiimotes (non-TR)
  • Asus bt211 Bluetooth Adapter

DKCR does not accept the 2nd wiimote connection until after you reach the "2 Players" part of the game.
I do not think this is fixable other than by spamming connection attempts.
