8bitdo NGC mod - (video) analog triggers work, but can't run & spray in Sunshine 🤔

Wondering if maybe my controller is messed up or something - I followed the guide for pairing the 8bitdo NGC modkit ("gamepad only" preset, android pairing mode, etc), and the analog triggers DO work, but while playing Sunshine, pressing the trigger lightly causes me to get locked into aiming mode (which is supposed to happen when fully pressed to the button at the bottom of the pull).

Tried factory resetting BlueRetro and reinstalling the latest firmware, but every time I connect it's the same result... any ideas what might be causing this? Wonder if it's the controller hardware/firmware itself might be messed up or something. Quite possible I'm just missing something basic here too 😅

Update to v25.04 firmware

Also another important note for Xbox controller is that you need to press a digital button like A first a couple time before touching the triggers and joysticks to allow blueretro to calibrate them properly. This is noted here:
Wiki: Controller pairing guide (4 xbox pairing guide)

Edit:
Use default preset preset for NGC modkit, so your good qith factory reset config.

Thanks, I missed this reply initially! The Xbox pairing guide doesn't pertain to the NGC Modkit though, right?

I tried pairing using the NGC Modkit instructions, but can't seem to get the analog trigger functionality to work (it's only used in a couple games like Sunshine and Melee, so nbd, but would be a nice bonus!)
