gamepad controls

by Jesse Etzler · in Game Design and Creative Issues · 07/01/2010 (10:45 am) · 4 replies

I have tried everything to get my gamepad working so I'm able to control my player. I've been checking every thread and documentation with no luck... Has anyone gotten this to work yet and how ? I'm using a logitech gamepad controller by the way.

Depends on the engine. I would check out CSMP posts in this thread

There is a temporary solution you could use. Search for and download an application called Xpadder. It is used to map keyboard keys to just about any joypad or joystick, it can be very useful. I may be using it for Torque 3D soon.

If your using TGE:

you need to activate directx input in PlayGui.cs:

$enableDirectInput = "1";
activateDirectInput();
enableJoystick();

then use these in default.bind

"joystick0" instead of mouse or keyboard.

then any of these:

xAxis
yAxis
zAxis
rzaxis

upov
dpov
lpov
rpov

button0 - button11

Hope this helps! :)
