Guitar Sniffer not recognizing inputs #12

Open Wafflexboy opened 4 years ago

Wafflexboy commented 4 years ago

I followed the instructions for setup, and when I launched Guitar Sniffer it never responded to inputs on my Guitar.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I've tried using both WinPCap and NPCap, neither made a difference.

Running Windows 10 1903, Xbox One Stratocaster guitar, Xbox one wireless adapter. All installed software was the most recent (or stable) version.

I also tried poking around a little with vJoy. I'm not sure where vJoy comes in or what it does but I wasn't able to get anything to change so I reset it back to default, then put in the config listed in setup here

So the guitar sniffer program opens and stays open? I want to make sure you see a window like the screenshots in the instructions.

If you see the window and it's not working, make sure your guitar is working right. Just hit the Xbox button and make sure it brings up the game bar stuff.

Xbox button does work, opens the game bar stuff.

Guitar sniffer opens normally and looks almost like the first image from the setup (first image of guitar sniffer, the second showed button response). The only difference is I dont see that string of numbers/letters at the bottom.

My assumption was that the string was packet info, meaning I was either not receiving any or the software wasnt responding correctly. Windows gave no errors about not responding

Got it. I always check that because if it doesn't open at all it usually has something to do with the XB1 wireless adapter or vJoy.

When you say you've tried uninstalling and reinstalling were you talking about WinPCap? That's the other place I've had issues. I got a new XB1 adapter and had to reinstall that for it to work again. So I would get rid of the other NPCap and uninstall/reinstall WinPCap and see if that works.

Other than that, if you've followed the instructions exactly for ALL the programs to be installed and vJoy is set up properly I'm not sure what it would be... MAYBE run the sniffer as administrator, that also helps some things, but if it's opening it's usually not that. Try it anyway.

Wafflexboy commented 4 years ago

I've done clean installs of both WinPCap and NPCap, neither make a difference. I've tried running sniffer as admin and that doesn't seem to make a difference.

I wish I had more to tell you.... All the steps we've discussed have worked in the past. If you figure it out please post it here in case others have similar issues.

Happy to still try and troubleshoot, just not sure what else to do.

I've benn having the same issue sadly. Xbox button works, but neither vJoy or Guitar sniffer get any input from the guitar. I've got a Jaguar X1 model.

@Dunkalunk Could you share the versions you use of WinPCap, USBPCap and vJoy please?

Dunkalunk commented 4 years ago

@giuliano-december absolutely and a great idea!

WinPCap - v4.1.3 - if I remember right this is the latest and last version, I don't think it's in development anymore

USBPCap - v1.5.4.0 - as far as I can tell this is still the latest

vJoy - v2.1.9.1 - appears to be the latest

I was hoping there was something to this and maybe there were updated versions causing problems but it doesn't appear to be.......

giuliano-december commented 4 years ago

@Dunkalunk yeah I've got the same versions :/

The guitar appears in Devices and Printers as a HID-Compliant device but that's it. Monitor vJoy app won't respond on inputs either. Where does the guitar sniffer log the errors/info ?

I am using the binary btw. Not compiling it

Dunkalunk commented 4 years ago

@giuliano-december yeah it won't change how it shows up there since you connect the device to the wireless adapter and then all the packet capture reads the data into vJoy, so vJoy is really what is being used as the controller in Clone Hero. There currently isn't any logging output that I know of. The only time I've seen errors logged is in the console when I get it running in Jetbrains GoLand

I'm having the same issues. Mine used to work great then I'm guessing a Windows Update happened and everything stopped working.

sorcer0r commented 3 years ago

Make sure you uninstall Npcap before running the application.

tylonyong commented 3 years ago

I followed all the steps and guitar sniffer still wasn't working. Then I uninstalled the latest Windows update, not sure if it was 2021-03 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 10 Version 20H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5000842). After the reboot, all the inputs in Guitar Sniffer worked again.
