Rumble Issue

[ulao]

Quote:I'm not offended. I'm just bracing myself because I have no idea who
anyone is and usually I see devs acting weird at times throughout the
emulation world and it just feels like one of those moments.

ok fair enough but getting edgy and generally feeling fustraited towards devs is not going to help. The two guys that work on rumble the most ( as far as I know ) are helping you right now. We are both developers ( I'm not a dolphin dev but I design usb adapter and write firmware.)

Please understand something. Emulators are free, we dont get paid, we do this in our spare time in between our family off moments. We do this because we love this sort of thing and yes we even try to help people out. You will not find any clause that says we have to and if you read though the specifics this is a use at your own risk software. More importantly its open source so you can always download it yourself and fix the issue.

If we have to waste time and explain these things, it cuts in to time helping you. So it serves little of no purpose. That being said lets see what can be done.

There are a few facts here, you mentioned some, here are more.

1) rumble does work on x64 and x86 builds, period.
2) games are agnostic, they done care what kind of controller you have. Pretty much if the test rumble works it will work in game and visa-verse'a but from a working game to another working game nothing will change. So there is no advantage in testing more then one.
3) Logcitech drivers can be a bytch that is not any new news.
4) There is something special about your combo. Granted in your tests its not clear but based on point 1, its not a general bug. However! that does not mean its not a bug in dolphin interfacing with that driver or more specifically a bug in the way dolphin uses dinput.
5) dont mess with ramp , sine, square, etc.. Just use constant force. I think the devs did that for other options if your controller does not support constant. Also SDL MIO is crap. Its more for mac users.

now, do you have any way to get a cheep controller to eliminate a handful of possibilities?

Also if you dont find my posts helpful there is no obligation to reply, lets just keep a friendly atmosphere here.

oh and BTW: I only see talk of x86 above, did you make any typos? Just want to make sure the info is clear up there. Am I correct in assuming x64 = broken for everything?

--another thing to add. I just saw the link you posted in the OP. I saw the talk about it and I can clearly see the radio shack adapter is giving you issues. I agree its very strange it wont work with dolphin. Now you posted this


At the current do you get options in 86 but not in 64? If nothing shows that means the driver didnt report any FFB options.
