Direct Input Plugin for Gamepads and Joysticks

[slamshed]

This is a fantastic plugin. I have got my gamepad set up and I can see the button responses in control panel. I have created simple events based on each button but homeseer does not seem to be getting the data. I must be missing something fundamental, has nyone got any pointers?

Which control panel ? Windows ?

Does the plugin see your gamepad and create HS devices for each axis / button ?

Duh,

I just found another thread that solved it. I was using the wrong type of event trigger, have changed to device value change and it's all working beautifully (-: This plugin is great. I wonder if there is a way to set it up like the speaker client so you could use gamepads on remote machines to control homeseer!

Cheers,

That sounds like a really cool idea, I think that would push me over the edge to use this... a game port on a machine in darkest corner of my basement isn't doing me much good without running wires all over the house (again)

So I second that!
