This might be another BLE controller, if it won't connect to the console. Come join my discord server and check out the #testing-ble channel. There are experimental builds in the pinned messages that support BLE devices.

[ndeadly]

Oh yeah, it's definitely BLE. I just saw this regarding compaitbility on their website

Android 8.0+ Devices with Bluetooth® 4.2 or Later

May even prove problematic on Switch, it's only supporting Bluetooth 4.1. Let's see

[PogEternal]

It did connect with the experimental build but now I’m not getting any input from it

[ndeadly]

That's to be expected. If the controller id isn't recognised it will be connected using the default handler, which doesn't map inputs. It should have created a log (sdmc:/mc-mitm.log) that contains the controller id. Share it here for me to take a look at

[PogEternal]

mc-mitm.log Here you go

[ndeadly]

Cool, thanks. Am I right in understanding that this is essentially an Xbox controller?

[PogEternal]

Yes

[ndeadly]

MissionControl-0.11.1-ble-bond-ed07309.zip Whitelisted as an Xbox controller. Let me know if it works

[PogEternal]

I’m getting input from the joysticks but it’s going up on its own and in general they are very spastic and inconsistent. Also the rest of the buttons still have no input.

[PogEternal]

Just discovered something else through control stick calibration. It seems like both joysticks are on the same input.

[ndeadly]

Must not be using the standard Xbox input format then. Take a look at what it's sending with my hid report viewer app ble_tools.zip

[PogEternal]

Does it create a log of what I do on the apps and if so where is it?

[ndeadly]

No, there's no log. The idea is that you note down the changes for each input

[PogEternal]

Ok

Yeah, this layout is completely different to an Xbox controller. I guess it will need its own handler. Can you check the sticks in the X/Y axis too? Those resting values 00 00 ff ff 00 00 ff ff seem kind of strange. You're also missing the home/xbox and share buttons.

[ndeadly]

This should correctly map the inputs you've given me so far

MissionControl-0.11.1-ble-bond-b61091f.zip

[PogEternal]

If i remember correctly im pretty sure the left stick affects that first 00 00 ff ff part as well as a part of the dot segment and the right stick affects the other 00 00 ff ff part as well as a different part of the dot segment.

[PogEternal]

Xbox home button - 00 90 0f 00 00 ff ff 00 00 ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00

Unfortunately the share button doesn't output anything

That's kind of expected, but knowing what the values are at the extremes informs the data type/ranges used

[ndeadly]

Unfortunately the share button doesn't output anything

Share might be on a separate input report that needs to be activated. I'll look into this further later when I'm at home

These probably aren't 100% accurate but they should be accurate enough.

[PogEternal]

MissionControl-0.11.1-ble-bond-b61091f.zip

Most of the buttons are working on this but the left trigger gives no input and the right trigger gives an input for the left trigger

Yeah that's all I expected. I usually just plot the values as points to sanity check, so they don't need to be spot on.

Anyway, hopefully this one fixes the sticks and triggers.

[PogEternal]

Everything seems to be working great now. Thank you so much for fixing the compatibility issues my controller was having!

[ndeadly]

No problem. Give this one a go too and see if hid report viewer shows anything when you press the share button now.

MissionControl-0.11.1-ble-bond-03b04d1.zip

[PogEternal]

Nope, still no input.

[PogEternal]

Also while it isn't much of an issue, I did notice that the a b y and x buttons where inverted. Does that have something to do with it being an Xbox controller?

[ndeadly]

And this one?

This is intentional. The idea is to match the layout of the Pro Controller buttons, not what's printed on them. With normal controllers you could remap this to your liking in the system menu. This can't be done with BLE controllers currently, but hopefully I have a solution for that by the time this is ready for release.

Oh, alrighty then.

[PogEternal]

And this one?

MissionControl-0.11.1-ble-bond-98a173e.zip

Still nothing

[ndeadly]

Hmm, maybe it only works in Xbox mode

[PogEternal]

Probably, stuff like steam doesn't recognize it in wireless mode either.

[PogEternal]

Anyway, once again thank you for solve this issue, I greatly appreciate it.
