getting a CDI file to run

**Yamaraja** · May 26th, 2007, 22:23

I just downloaded it but it turned out to be a CDI file and I can't figure out how to run it. do I have to convert it and how would I do that?

Use nullDC, File --> Normal Boot. Select the image file you want to run.

awesome, it works great. but how would you go about getting a controller to work on it? I got v1.0 so I don't know if that's the latest one but it doesn't work with a controller.

On the nullDC input configuration, they suggest you use Joy2Key, but you can also use Xpadder. Both are programs that "emulate" (not sure if it's the right word :B) the keyboard on your joystick.

is there a guide on how to use it with nullDC? nothing else came with it to show you how to use it.

Dunno about Joy2Key. Xpadder just download any of the controller images (like the DC one

) and create a .xpaddercontroller using this image and place your control buttons, D-pad and analog stick, on where it should be on a DC controller. Then just config each button, D-pad and analog stick for the default keyboard configuration of nullDC.

If you still can't get it to work, you can use this tutorial: http://www.1emulation.com/forums/lof...hp/t21675.html
Although I had some problems with his custom .xpaddercontroller.

works great. there's one small problem left. the menus in Soul Calibur don't work right and some of the backgrounds are a little messed up. do you know the best plugins to use for Soul Calibur? not a big deal but would like to fix it if I can.

The current nullDC version doesn't run SC 100%, maybe in one of their future updates it gets fixed.The Chankast video plugin that comes with nullDC solves some graphical problems for SC, but also create others... See if it solves your problem.
