Universal Dynamic Input

UniversalDynamicInput is a custom button package for Dolphin emulator.
It uses dynamic input textures to create custom buttons in real time.
Unlike traditional button packs, you can change the control settings at any time,
the in-game buttons are automatically updated to match the controller and setting you're using.
Another advantage is that there are no problems with other texture packs.
Take a look at this Dolphin progress report for more info.
