Little bit gutted as I’m selling the 8BitDo 64 controller I just bought because it doesn’t support xinput! All my other controllers are xinput.

I like being able to grab a controller and have Retroarch or whatever just auto configure for it. Can’t remember which, but one of the N64 recomps I have didn’t even detect the controller! Here’s hoping the Brawler 64 Pro from Retro Fighters solves this.

Bit of a note for my future self if I ever do a version update of the AMAZING Gran Turismo 4 Spec II.

First, don’t bother upgrading - it probably won’t work. Maybe for other people, but I convert PS2 *.iso’s to *.chd files. Converting that back to patch doesn’t like it.

Just go with a full patch. Look for the Gran Turismo 4 Online Public Beta (US) - [SCUS-97436] image on a place like archive.org.
