FR support for X box 360 controller?

Post by Exo »

Was just wondering if there are plans to support the X box 360 controller?

Would be very nice to have that. :)

Cheers ;)

As you know we currently support the Wii controller and Nunchuk - which is great.

Currently we are looking into the PS3 controller, plus we will check out the Xbox controller at the same time.

Watch this space :)

What about joysticks and other game controllers made for PC?
Obviously you can't make a module for every single game controller, but is it possible to make a module that works kind of like the generic game controller driver in Windows XP?

For example having 10 analog connectors for the various axes and sliders and 10 digital for the buttons.

You could make your own using the Phidgets 8/8/8 board and a load of sliders, knobs, mini joysticks, and buttons!

The problem with the whole game console controller thing is the lack of windows drivers! We have the Xbox controller working now in the office, so it should be released soon :)

Yeah I guess I'll have to, I was hoping to avoid getting another 8/8/8 just for a joystick, as you know I can only have 4 interfaces with my Enterprise license. The Pro license is too expensive for a hobby project.
