This is a fantastic lib, works great with my wireless 360 controller!

[RabbidMickeyMouse]

CoolDude, do you happen to have one of those MS adapters for their wireless controllers?

[morno]

can you make this in GML code? i dont like D&D

[RabbidMickeyMouse]

Yup, in fact, I did my work with the 360 controller with scripts first.

// xbox_controller_init();

globalvar XB_A, XB_B, XB_X, XB_Y, XB_RTHUMB, XB_LTHUMB, XB_RSHOULDER, XB_LSHOULDER;
globalvar XB_RTRIGGER, XB_LTRIGGER, XB_BACK, XB_START XB_DPAD;

XB_A = 1;
XB_B = 2;
XB_X = 3;
XB_Y = 4;

XB_RTHUMB_X = 5;
XB_RTHUMB_Y = 6;

XB_LTHUMB_X = 7;
XB_LTHUMB_Y = 8;

XB_RSHOULDER = 9;
XB_LSHOULDER = 10;

XB_RTRIGGER = 11
XB_LTRIGGER = 12;

XB_BACK = 13;
XB_START = 14;

XB_DPAD = 15;

XB_LTHUMB_B = 16;
XB_RTHUMB_B = 17;

// xbox_controller_check(id,button);
// Returns the data concerning the button given

switch argument1
{
 case XB_A : return joystick_check_button(argument0,1);
 case XB_B : return joystick_check_button(argument0,2);
 case XB_X : return joystick_check_button(argument0,3);
 case XB_Y : return joystick_check_button(argument0,4);

 case XB_RTHUMB_X : return joystick_rpos(argument0);
 case XB_RTHUMB_Y : return joystick_upos(argument0);

 case XB_LTHUMB_X : return joystick_xpos(argument0);
 case XB_LTHUMB_Y : return joystick_ypos(argument0);

 case XB_LTHUMB_B : return joystick_check_button(argument0,9);
 case XB_RTHUMB_B : return joystick_check_button(argument0,10);

 case XB_RSHOULDER : return joystick_check_button(argument0,6);
 case XB_LSHOULDER : return joystick_check_button(argument0,5);

 case XB_RTRIGGER : if joystick_zpos(argument0) > 0 then
					{ return joystick_zpos(argument0); } else { return 0; }

 case XB_LTRIGGER : if joystick_zpos(argument0) < 0 then
					{ return abs(joystick_zpos(argument0)); } else { return 0; }

 case XB_BACK  : return joystick_check_button(argument0,7);
 case XB_START : return joystick_check_button(argument0,8);

 case XB_DPAD : return joystick_pov(argument0);
}

I know Game Maker only supports two joysticks at a time. Does this limitation apply to 360 controllers as well? If so, is there any way around it?

[mrsmes]

one word, wicked...

Since the scripts simply wrap Game Maker's joystick functions, you still have a maximum of two.

[Johnnsen]

There was a way to even get rumble support. I don't know which topic or project it was, but it worked great. Does it work with this one?

[RabbidMickeyMouse]

Not that I know of by default, but yellowsix's XInput DLL supports rumble.

[bobsijswinkel]

if you install your xbox360 controller on your pc you dont need this librarie you can use the normal joystick options (mouse > joystick1)...
but your librarie has more moves so thanks for posting it....

When i plug my controller into the USB port with the charger cord (is this the right one?), my computer searches for updates on the unknown usb port and then once it fails because it finds nothing, well it's basically not recognised. When i start the example up, and press buttons, nothing happens? And when i turn the controller on, my xbox turns on (behind me) and my controller is connected to it.. How do i get the PC to recognise my xbox controller?

[RabbidMickeyMouse]

As far as I've come to read about usb chargers, they don't connect the controller to the PC in any data sharing fashion, and only rely on the 5v of power usb ports supply.

For those willing to spend the money, you can find wireless controller receivers for Windows for 20 dollars or less. I can only assume that with the wireless receiver, that Windows connects the controller like it does the wired controller, as a recognizable gamepad for GameMaker's uses. No reason it shouldn't, I believe.

How about a wii controller library?

you should try to make one for the PS3 controller because I only have a PS3 controller no an XBox controller

[busterdash]

PS3 controllers aren't USB, and I don't think they have an adapter either.

They are USB. The adapter is also known as a bluetooth dongle.
