If I'm allowed to make a suggesion, rethink about how you want the end user to config their gamepad. The way it is configured now by default, makes it impossible to use an alternate setup and cutomized buttons. All buttons are in use by default and therefore cannot be changed (unless I've missed something).

finally dspad 1.6.0 will continue using sdl.
Lino : you've released the source code of dinput plugin, why don't you release the sources of directsound plugin and/or built-in 3d plugin ? This would allow developers to create better plugins from these plugins.

Where is your plugin? Where can i download it?
How many people are you? Where you come from? (Only for the Italians)

Sorry, but i cant release other source, if you want i help you. When you have terminated your plugin and it works well as mine , can i put the file in my site?

dspad 1.6.0 is out, it works much better and all bugs are solved , X & Y buttons work fine now. Thanks you and your dinput plugin's source which helped me a lot.
Lino : yes you can put my plugin on your site. But why can't you release other sources ? they are not finished I suppose ?
this is not important, but it's you the master.

NHerve, dspad 1.6.0 doesn't show in the list when the dinput.dll plugin exists there. this didn't occur with 1.5.0

Because it'snt open source . Finished? I think really of no


EDIT:
I have tried to make the debug of your plugin, but I always receive an error (read at address 0x0). Your plugin calls SDL_Quit () also when the SDL isnt loaded (iDeaS (on start) calls the dll more times, because it get info on plugin). Perhaps its this the problem.

squall-leonhart : i know this bug, this is due to dinput plugin, clear it. This can be the addition of PIT_DYNAMIC flag into GetInfoFunc.
You can modify it and recompilate the plugin source (open source is pratical, isn't it.) : 17
dspad.cpp, line 117 : replace :
"info->dwType=PIT_PAD|PIT_DYNAMIC;"
by :
"info->dwType=PIT_PAD;"

yes, your plugins are not open source, do what you want.
what want you say by "i help you" ? you could provide a text file explicating the params of RunFunc for each plugin, and other things.

PS : this would allow developers to create better plugins, and, if their plugins are open source, you could use their sources to improve your own plugins.

I have released the source code, you find the sources in pluginsdk.zip. You can also find all RunFunc prototype.
Again if you need help I answer, it makes very happy . I do not understand why one should be the source of my plugins.You wrote your plugin without any source.

EDIT :

For the error in your plugin i think the problem is in SDL. Because my debugger stop the program on this module, no in your plugin. Perhaphs the SDL access a null value.

thanks a lot.
open source has a good point : if you lose your sources you're able to download the sources of the latest public version, this is better than nothing. I don't force you to run into open source.
edit : where is the new plugin sdk ? on your site there is only old plugin sdk. do you mean the source of dinput plugin only ?

yes, your dinput plugin has a nasty bug : all buttons are configured by default and the plugin does not allow you to map 2 buttons to the same value, if a button is already mapped, you can't map it a second time.
You should set button values to 0 (none) or allow that a button could be mapped 2 times or more, or even add a "clear value" button.

error 84 is "unsufficient memory".
I got it with iDeaS 1.0.1.9, but no problem with iDeaS 1.0.2.0.

yes, I'm sure. Are you meaning the source of dinput plugin only ?
You have released a new plugin sdk, but there are exactly the same files into it.

[Poki#3]

Error 84 here too... oh, well...
Is the SDL.dll still required with 1.6? I don't see it in the archive...

PS: can we provide mirrors of your plugin for people without accounts on this forum?
PS2: Looks like Lino updated the SDK yesterday. Grab it: http://www.ideasemu.org/ideas_download/pluginsdk.zip

poki#3 : yes it is required, but it is no longer provided because it makes the zip heavier.
SDL.dll is 313 kb heavy.
PS : yes you can provide mirrors and redistribute my plugin.
PS2 : yes, but it seems it is exactly the same sdk, didn't see any difference. Tell me if I'm wrong.
