Pad mapping and the UI behind it is significantly confusing, and has been confusing users since NetPlay was introduced. As part of a large code cleanup to help NetPlay more stable, introduce a better pad mapping system where local pad mapping is handled by the client. Now, all the server and other clients know is which player have which controllers, and the clients only know this so they can show the pad mapping in the UI; they don't do anything else with it. A future cleanup will use this pad mapping data to completely ignore the pads configured in the settings pane on the host.
Dolphin-emu - The Gamecube / Wii Emulator
==========================================
Homesite: http://dolphin-emu.org/
Project Site: http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu
Dolphin-emu is a emulator for Gamecube, Wii, Triforce that lets
you run Wii/GCN/Tri games on your Windows/Linux/Mac PC system.
Open Source Release under GPL 2
Project Leaders: F|RES, ector

System Requirements:
* OS: Microsoft Windows (XP/Vista or higher) or Linux or Apple Mac OS X (10.6 or higher).
Windows XP x64 is NOT supported.
* Processor: Fast CPU with SSE2 supported (recommended at least 2Ghz).
Dual Core for speed boost.
* Graphics: Any reasonably modern graphics card (Direct3D9/OpenGL 2.1, shader model 3.0).
