TwinPad Keyboard plugin?

[Rebel_X]

Technical Part (Danger if you hate math skip this post! )
============================================

RPGW1ZaRD from technical view, PadWinKeb was Wrapping every 254 pixels to 0
it means, if your screen width was 640, and your mouse x-axis was 200, and you
go to the right 60 pixels, that means the new analog x-axis is 6 ( 260 - 254 )
it'll go to the left, so that's why the Character in FF12 goes in wrong different directions, in
different mouse locations.

I managed to correct this by this formula to scale Mouse (Screen) coordinates
i.e (640x480) to Analog coordinates (x and y <= 255 and >= 0) (255x255)

AnalogX = (Mouse.X / ScreenWidth) * 255
AnalogY = (Mouse.Y / ScreenHeight) * 255

I don't know why PadWinKeyb authors didn't do that, it was very trivial & basic.

the Reks in FF12, if you want him to run the right, Analog must be X > 64+(128 origin)

So bottom line, Sensitivity is good for Most games, cause Keyboard uses
the highest sensitivity, so mouse will be good for accurate Analog coords
And I don't think, it would be appropriate to add harsh mouse sensitivity
(although its possible)

Besides, you said, it's a bonus feature, this plugin focus on Keyboard.
Sorry if I was bragging, But I was showing you what's going on.

I hope thc is glad for mouse support tho

Hi,

I know it's so silly to release updates every three hours or so, but
nevertheless here is update

Changed:
=======
- Corrected mouse support, previous version was depending on Screen resolution, In this version it depends on GS window dimensions.

Overall, if you play in Window or Full screen, you will have nice controls over
the mouse. as previous version works best for Full Screen Mode.

you can resize the window, maximize it, without affecting Mouse controls

I didn't notice this, cause I always play in Full screen, thanx to thc, to give me the technical part in the code, RPGW1ZaRD, give it to me from user point of view.

Try this RPGW1ZaRD, does this correct mouse sensitivity
nevertheless, it may contain glitches, so feedback would be appreciated!

Thanx..

EDIT: Corrected some stuff, download again! see my post below for more infos!

Haha yet another release, I like trying out new versions of plugins and emulators personally.

I forgot to meantion I use windowed mode yea. I noticed you limited the area where you can move pointer to only the pcsx2 window, this is both good and bad, I often switch among fraps, irfanview etc (this is often why people would use windowed mode anyways) when running PCSX2 in windowed mode, now I also have to minimize the pcsx2 window first so it doesn't feel too flexible. But it might help with mouse support tho but I personally think I prefer being able to move mouse pointer all over the screen. This made also another problem, when moving the pcsx2 window the area where you can move the mouse pointer doesn't change according to the new position, the area remains same as when loading a game.

The good part is that mouse support feels more responsive/sensitive now.

Ummm... silly question from me, but I want to be sure. I don't have to enable mouse support somehow specific, it's just there, right? What I mean, there is no switch in configuration GUI like "use mouse for analog sticks" so I understand that it's always like this. So to use it as eg. right analog stick I have to hold RMB and move the mouse? And what when I already assigned keys to analog sticks? Thanks in advance for response.

The mouse is activated normally, MLbutton, means left analog, MRbutton means Right analog. And I hope it didn't interfere with
Analog keys (may be future releases contain Mouse configs in the GUI)!

Please download again, corrected GS window, if it was moved update the
mouse area, also, RPGW1ZaRD I didn't think clipping area to specified
region is rightous, so, the mouse is free to go anywhere if NOT pressed Lbutton or Rbutton (Gives more flexibility huh )

Awesome now mouse support is perfect even in windowed mode! Thx for this xmas gift. (You didn't meantion if you had a paypal account yet j/k)

BTW I've found out another little issue, when typing on a forum or otherwise just pressing some keyboard buttons meanwhile the emulator is running with this twinpad plugin, even if you minimize the pcsx2 window when pressing down some of the assigned control keys the inputs are recognised in the emulator, doesn't happen with the other plugins (as long as pcsx2 isn't the "active" window). So when I use ctrl + v to paste the screenshot in Irfanview for example the emulator pauses as I've got start button assigned to "v" with the plugin for example.

This is due to DirectInput has Foreground NonExclusive access to Keyboard
DirectInput got more power to control Keyboard even running in background
I will see what I can do.

Hi Again..

A new release of TwinPad is out, it's version now 0.7.0

This is gonna be cool, Change Log hhmmm, be ready!

Changes:
=======

- Corrected the Issue RPGW1ZaRD told me about, that's even if
GS window lost focus, it responds to keyboard events. (Fixed )
thanks to him, cause I didn't notice this before. (you should be
one of beta testers of PCSX2, you give a quick and sharp feedback
to what's going on (IMHO) )

- Fixed a very nasty bug, Emu crash if you closed the window
using the mouse (click on X in the upper right corner), now it
wont happen again, to exit PCSX2 press ESCAPE.

- Corrected PAD2 analog emulation, as the original PadWinKeyb plugin
was using the same controls defined for both pads (pad1 & pad2)
that means, in earlier versions, if for example there is 2 players
they will move simultaneously, now that fixed too

- Added a new feature for Mouse support, users with 8 mouse buttons
will be glad, even if you have a mouse with less buttons you will be
glad too, now in the GUI, you can configure the way your Mouse will
work, you can configure for example, Middle mouse button to do the job
of Cross, Triangle, Square, Circle, L2, R2...etc!
Also you can switch the Right Analog with the Left Analog or any other
button you have in your mouse, this is great for users want full
control of there mice, or handicapped errr!! I mean left handed users,
gives them more flexibility, note that Mouse will work as PAD1 only
(I was too lazy to add switch in GUI to let it be using Pad2, maybe
in the next versions, if there is any.. )

hi thc (he will know what I'm talking about..)

Notes:
=====
- Important!! Read the notes in GUI about mouse. I am not gonna
write them again here.

- This is considered a beta! as I don't have mouse with 8 buttons
(I have only mouse with 3 buttons and a wheel, but they work..
the principle is the same, theoretically it will work with other mice.

- If there is any glitches, tell me about them asap, as I am gonna be
busy for a while (if I could correct what I have missed)

- have fun, I hope the new mouse support makes you all happy.

EDIT: Corrected Logical bug with latest Mouse implementaions,
fixed Now (that's insulting me, damn, also removed that MessageBox
thc talked about -debugging purposes-)
