Open Frame 1 User Guide

Your OF1 board comes pre loaded with HayBox firmware, the following is a short guide on how to get your controller setup and working. For a full guide on how the firmware works please go to: https://github.com/JonnyHaystack/HayBox

Playing on PC

  1. Plug in your controller using a USB-C to USB-A cable.

  2. Download the HayBox Dolphin controller profile file for Windows, Linux or Mac.

  3. Navigate to your Dolphin install location and then to User>Config>Profiles>GCPad and put the file in there, you'll most likely need to create the "Profiles" and "GCPad" folders. If you are using the slippi launcher click the gear icon in the top right then go to the netplay tab and click on “Open containing folder”.

  4. Open Dolphin, go to the controllers menu and change any port to "Standard Controller" then click "Configure" next to that port. Go to the Profile drop down menu and select HayBox then click "Load". You do not need to click save. If you are using the slippi launcher you will need to go to the same netplay tab as in the previous step but this time click on “Configure Dolphin”.

  5. Test your controller by pressing some buttons, your inputs should flash red, if it doesn't work press "Refresh" at the top left and make sure that “Pico” is selected in the device drop down menu.

  6. Close out of all config windows and launch the game. You're good to go!

Playing on Wii/GC/Switch

For GC/Wii simply plug in the controller with a USBC to GC cable. No further setup is required. If you are playing P+ you will need to switch to the P+ mode, check the “Game Modes” section below for instructions.

If you are playing on a Wii using a USB loader you need to enable "Native Controller" for your controller to work. This option will be in different places depending on what loader you are using. This is not necessary if you are using Slippi Nintendont as it is enabled by default.

For Switch, plug your controller into a GCC adapter using a UCBC to GC cable. At this time HayBox does not support plugging directly into the USB ports on the Switch dock. If you are playing Ultimate you will need to switch to the Ultimate mode, check the “Game Modes” section below for instructions.

Game Modes

HayBox has several different game modes which change stick coordinates and mappings depending on the mode. You switch game modes by first plugging in the controller and then pressing 3 buttons simultaneously, the game mode will change instantly, you do not need to hold the buttons down. These are the commands for accessing each mode:

  • Mod X + Start + L = Melee (default mode)

  • Mod X + Start + Left = Project M/+

  • Mod X +Start + Down = Ultimate

  • Mod X + Start + Right = FGC (Used for traditional fighters on PC only, will not work on other consoles)

  • Mod X + Start + B = Rivals of Aether

  • Mod Y + Start + L = Keyboard (emulates a standard PC keyboard)
