Vibration support #4

Open capitaineflam25 opened 1 year ago

capitaineflam25 commented 1 year ago

I'd love to see the support of vibration, specially for the N64 controller.

With the incoming N64 core for MiSTer FPGA, having it would be a great enhancement 😍

I'm not sure the MiSTer would use this library, but anyway, rumble should be already supported on GC, just send the proper commands, while it's not on N64. That would require a Rumble Pak anyway, not sure how it works.

Leaving the issue open, if someone wants to help.

Thanks for you answer.

In MiSTer FPGA you can use an original N64 controller by making a SNAC adapter (Serial Native Accessory Converter) then you can use it only on the N64 core (this core is a work in progress but the actual state is already impressive).

Or you can create an USB Adapter (with an Arduino Pro Micro and N64PadToUSB for example), this is what i'm doing and it allows you to use the N64 on any core you want. (and i can also play on a PC or a RPi with the same hardware)

Ohhh ok, I see. I knew about "particular USB adapters" for the MiSTer, but it was a bit vague :).
