Joystick for PSMove

[Xcalibur]

Hi Greg,

I want to add a joystick to emulate trackpad for the PS Move controller. Here’s what I tried so far:

PS Navi: work in windows; can assign buttons but doesn’t work in steam.
Bluetooth gamepad: only have non-analogue joystick(Magicsee R1): can’t even assign trigger in game mode…
Xbox 360 controller: can assign button and it works in vr but intermittent(~1 out of 5 times): steam treats it as a gamepad and i think it’s in conflict with it’s own mapping?

Also, if I understand correctly, two controllers can therefore activate the same button/trackpad. Does it create a conflict?

Please advice on how I can do so.

Thanks.

yes. they conflict unfortunately.
if you have controller selected as tracker it overwrite gamepad.

You mean assigning the vrgamepad to a controller in driver4vr? Likr for leap motion?

How about actually replacing the touchpad from psmove with another controller at all?

[Greg Driver]

like what controller? you have only vr gamepad as an option.

I see you are experimenting PSMoveService directly for hip and feet tracking in Discord.

Maybe you can get the buttons from PSNavi via PSMoveService too? I remember that it works 100% in the PSMoveConfigTool once setup per DaleyTech’s video.

Don’t remember whether Steam pick it up as a controller though.

Nevermind, PS Navi is recognized as Xbox360 controller… That’s the solution from PSMoveService to use Navi in windows 🙁

[Greg Driver]

that should be possible using current button mapping from xinput.
just require some tweak.
so you would use it with navi as for psmoveservice setup. right?

[Xcalibur]

If you mean by PSMoveService setup = PSMove controllers + PS Navi through PSMoveService and Kinect v1, than yes.

assuming ps navi is purely from xinput then it would be possible.
will try do this in second half of Jan.

Sounds good. Thanks!
