Xbox 360 Wired Controller - up/down reversed #885
-
|
I am using an Xbox 360 wired controller and it works fine on other applications however in vAmiga the up/down (left stick and right stick) are reversed. The d pad is also not working. Is there anyway to fix this? These are the values: 030000005e0400008e02000014010000, |

Thus, the first step is, by editing the device description, which of the keys corresponds to the up/down direction on your Xbox controller. Maybe vAmiga maps it wrong, but we need to find the relevant key first. |

Thank you so much for the prompt reply! Adding the ~ has now fixed the left and right stick as per your instructions. Is there something similar I can do for the dpad? |

I just checked the code. Unfortunately, the dpad is not customizable yet. Here is the descriptor parsing code (it's in Swift as all HID stuff is managed by the GUI). func query(descriptor: String) -> HIDMapping {
var result: HIDMapping = [
.AXIS: [:],
.BUTTON: [:],
.DPAD_UP: [0:[:]],
.DPAD_DOWN: [0:[:]],
.DPAD_RIGHT: [0:[:]],
.DPAD_LEFT: [0:[:]],
.HATSWITCH: [0:[:]]
]
// Add default values for the directional pad
result[.DPAD_UP]![0] = [0:[.RELEASE_Y], 1:[.PULL_UP]]
result[.DPAD_DOWN]![0] = [0:[.RELEASE_Y], 1:[.PULL_DOWN]]
result[.DPAD_RIGHT]![0] = [0:[.RELEASE_X,], 1:[.PULL_RIGHT]]
result[.DPAD_LEFT]![0] = [0:[.RELEASE_X,], 1:[.PULL_LEFT]]
// Add default values for the hat switch
result[.HATSWITCH]![0]![0] = [.RELEASE_XY]
result[.HATSWITCH]![0]![1] = [.PULL_UP]
result[.HATSWITCH]![0]![3] = [.PULL_UP,.PULL_RIGHT]
result[.HATSWITCH]![0]![2] = [.PULL_RIGHT]
result[.HATSWITCH]![0]![6] = [.PULL_DOWN,.PULL_RIGHT]
result[.HATSWITCH]![0]![4] = [.PULL_DOWN]
result[.HATSWITCH]![0]![12] = [.PULL_DOWN,.PULL_LEFT]
result[.HATSWITCH]![0]![8] = [.PULL_LEFT]
result[.HATSWITCH]![0]![9] = [.PULL_UP,.PULL_LEFT]
// Iterate through all key value pairs
for assignment in descriptor.split(separator: ",") {
let pair = assignment.split(separator: ":").map { String($0) }
if pair.count != 2 { continue }
switch (pair[1]) {
case "a0": result[.AXIS]![0] = mapAxis(key: pair[0])

Ah ok thank you for checking :) The joystick is good enough! Really appreciate the replies and all your work on vAmiga - definitely the best emulator yet for ease of use on the Mac and functionality! |

One more thing... as can be seen in your post, vAmiga selects the "Linux" setting for your device. In the database, there are a couple of Mac OS X settings that differ. I.e.: Can you try to replace the device description manually by one of these and check if it works? As you can see, the dp mappings differ. |

The first setting fixed it!! I replaced it with: Thank you very much for all your assistance in fixing my issues so quickly. |

Can you do me a favor and post a screenshot of the "Devices" preferences panel with your controller attached (like the one I posted above)? I'd like to see the exact parameters of your device (Vendor ID, version, etc.). It thinking about reworking my filter algorithm (based on your example, it might be better to prioritize the platform key over the version key if no perfect match in the database is found). |

Hi - unfortunately the not all the parameters are visible but I have pasted them below also 030000005e0400008e02000014010000, |
