 Most WiiU VC injector tools already contain the patches required for this, the patches below are only needed if you do it manually.  
 The usage is quite simple, call WiiDRC_Init on boot and after that call WiiDRC_ScanPads every time you update your pad inputs.

-The analog stick range goes from about -80 to 80 so make sure to scale it to whatever you need.  
+The analog stick range goes from about -75 to 75 so make sure to scale it to whatever you need.  
+The battery status goes from 6 (full) down to 1 (critical), 0 meaning that it is currently charging.  
 See the "demo" folder for an example on how to use it in a bit more detail.  
 Both compiled Library and Demo can be grabbed from the Releases tab.
