# Gamecube/N64 to USB adapter
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Introduction
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is the source code for a Gamecube/N64 controller to USB adapter firmware
|
||
|
|
meant to run on [raphnet.net Multiuse PCB-X](http://www.raphnet.net/electronique/multiuse_pcbX/index_en.php).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The project homepage is located at: http://www.raphnet.net/electronique/multiuse_pcbX/index.php

## Compiling the firmware
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You will need a working avr-gcc toolchain with avr-libc and standard utilities such as make. Just
|
||
|
|
type 'make' and it should build just fine. Under Linux at least.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Programming the firmware
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The makefile has a convenient 'flash' target which sends a command to the firmware to enter
|
||
|
|
the bootloader and then executes dfu-programmer (it must of course be installed) with the
|
||
|
|
correct arguments.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that the tool must be compiled first and your permissions must also be set so that your
|
||
|
|
user may access the device. See 'Using the tools' below for more information.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Compiling the tools
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the tool/ directory, just type make.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are a few dependencies:
|
||
|
|
- libhidapi-dev
|
||
|
|
- libhidapi-hidraw0
|
||
|
|
- pkg-config
|
||
|
|
- gtk3 (for the gui only)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Provided you have all the dependencies installed, under Linux at least, it should
|
||
|
|
compile without errors. For other environments such has MinGW, there are provisions
|
||
|
|
in the makefile to auto-detect and tweak the build accordingly, but it if fails, be
|
||
|
|
prepared to hack the makefile.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Using the tools
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Under Linux, you should configure udev to give the proper permissions to your user,
|
||
|
|
otherwise communicating with the device won't be possible. The same requirement
|
||
|
|
also applies to dfu-programmer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An easy way to do this is to copy the two files below to /etc/udev/rules.d, restart
|
||
|
|
udev and reconnect the devices.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
scripts/99-atmel-dfu.rules
|
||
|
|
scripts/99-raphnet.rules
|
||
|
|
|
||
