(enhancement) Possible input emulation library for windows #1

Open nalf3in opened 3 years ago

nalf3in commented 3 years ago

Hey there, just wanted to let you know that Vigem may be the input emulation library you are looking for on Windows. Unfortunately, I don't think they have python bindings though..

sebastiansam55 commented 3 years ago

looks interesting! It seems to be a bit in depth installation/usage wise.

I've been looking into swapping the program to use bluetooth HID, which would in theory make it cross-platform for everything. So hopefully that will happen sooner or later.

nalf3in commented 3 years ago

For the end user, it's actually pretty easy (only need to install once an executable) and any program(s) relying on it works but it would be quite nice for sure to make it work with an HID driver. Would you like me to close this thread in the meantime ?

You can keep it open til I (or anyone else) gets around to adding windows support

Have you considered or attempted to use Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL2)?

Just brainstorming. Great work on getting to where you're at now.

thank you for your suggestion and your interest in this project

I have not, I'm not sure how that works exactly but I doubt that it would be able to do what we need it to, I'll try to test it this weekend.

Unfortunately this is a hobby project that I made, tested and published and have not looked back at since so being honest I'll probably run into some issue and give up

Haha sounds about right, we've all been there. But you forgot to finish with 2 days later you'll have an epiphany while driving and solve all the problems. For WSL, long story short, it's Linux built into windows.

I'm far from smart enough to help you with the problem, but I do have 3 stadia controllers to assist with proof of concept type work if you ever need. Hopefully they just come out with an update to unlock the Bluetooth capabilities.
