User Reviews

  • Used to combine two Xbox Adaptive Joysticks as a single gamepad. Works very nicely using vendor+product+number to distinguish the two input controllers. Configuration was a bit confusing because this is registered as a gamepad, and the code assumes joysticks: buttons are offset by 16 from the expectation. Fortunately the software doesn't complain about high numbers. Gamepad button 0 is at 16, etc. Only problem I had was trying to configure the face buttons on the left joystick as a dpad HAT. Pressing the button correctly sets the axis to max, but it doesn't reset to 0 when the button is released. I ended up writing some code to handle it, but this should be fixed. I had tried, e.g.: button vendor=0x045e product=0x0b1a number=0 src=16 target=joyaxis axis=17 flags=invert
  • Using code on SBC device to connect external joystick, as all aplications on OS have SDLKey bindings. Works miracles, thank u Alexandre!
  • Works great with DOSBox and Retropie setups!
  • I can't figure out how to install this. Can someone help me please ?
