The primary axes are either the Control Pad or the left stick.īuttons come in a rough order: face buttons, then shoulder buttons, then Select and Start, then buttons under sticks, and finally Control Pad directions if not assigned to a hat.īut the order and number of buttons within a category are unpredictable, as is which button the user expects to use for each action. One of my testers reports that it calls itself a 'Controller (Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows)'. Microsoft makes a receiver for Xbox 360 wireless controllers that plugs into a PC's USB port, but I haven't had a chance to test it.

(Another thing to encourage use of XInput is the fact that Windows Store applications cannot use DirectInput and thus cannot use any controller other than the Xbox 360 Controller.)
#USB JOYSTICK CONTROLLER DRIVER#
The Windows DirectInput driver for the Xbox 360 controller produce the difference RT - LT as one axis, with no second axis for LT + RT, in order to encourage developers to switch from DirectInput to XInput, which is exclusive to Xbox 360 controllers. Under Windows, SDL uses DirectInput, not XInput, for Xbox 360 controllers.
#USB JOYSTICK CONTROLLER SOFTWARE#
One mode allows the use of an original Namco Guncon with PS2 software designed for the Guncon 2. The EMS USB2 adapter can be switched between two modes.

The SteelSeries 3GC Controller is mapped quite oddly.

Once USB became standard and sound cards stopped carrying the 15-pin game ports to which joysticks had previously connected, companies started producing USB game controllers specifically for the PC.
#USB JOYSTICK CONTROLLER PC#
USB ports became common on other brands of PC starting in 1999. The original iMac was the first popular personal computer to have USB as its only connection for external input, storage, and output devices.
#USB JOYSTICK CONTROLLER WINDOWS 8#
Results on Windows 8 were similar, except SDL under Windows 8 omits the manufacturer name from the device name, and devices without a name show up as a less informative '2 axis 10 button joystick' instead of the hexadecimal vendor and product IDs. Section headings represent the device name as seen through the test program, under Linux if not otherwise specified. Most tests were performed with a program under Xubuntu 12.04 'Precise Pangolin'. This section describes how various controllers are seen by Pygame, a wrapper around SDL. So unlike a console game, a PC game cannot assume that, say, 'button 1 = jump'. Unlike controllers for a single game console, USB Human Interface Device game controllers for a PC have their buttons in different layouts.Įven if the buttons are in the same layout, they may be presented to the application in a different order.
