Game Controller integration (suggestion)

I just picked up a game controller, with the idea of
"somehow" allowing a user to manipulate their experience. Seems
flash 8 does not have any access and I have been looking about on
the net and the best I have found so far is a joy stick possibility
using Zinc2.5.
Looking into the future, some kind of interaction between a
game controller and flash has a lot of possibilities.
Not sure if this is beyond the confines of Flash, but if not,
a very cool possibility for an addition toi the Wish List.

This product will be officially be available in mid November. It will be featured in the coming CES Show. I will keep you update on the progress.
You may also send me email on the matter.

Integrating HID Game controller

Friends,
I'm trying to integrate a device (a spirometer - a device
for measuring breathing) into flash. i have a driver that makes the
thing look like a USB connected HID game controller. Does anyone
know how to read from such a device into Flash ? Any help or
pointers would be much appreciated.. Thanks !
-jc

You'll probably need one of the Flash wrappers - Director or
other. I'm not
sure of the capabilities of Zinc, et al but Director could
handle this
easily enough. Or, if the device can write output to a text
file you could
use that.

I have a new Hp Envy with the GE Force gaming installed . I want to use a standard usb game controller similar in design to the Xbox or Playstaion versions. Will a generic controller be compatable with the GE Force games ?
This question was solved.

Sure.
Just make certain that it has drivers for the Windows version you plan on using.

Game Controller for Mac?

I'm not sure if I'm in the right forum. Is there a forum for gaming?
I am looking to purchase a game controller for our Mac for games like Call of Duty 4 and Madden. My son wants the xbox 360 controller and I found online elsewhere (tattiebogle.net) that if I buy that one I have to download a driver for the OS X. Is this correct and is this safe to do? Is there another game controller that will work just as well or better that you would recommend?
Thank you!

Is there a forum for gaming?
Not on Apple's site, but there are hundreds of them elsewhere on the Web.
These forums are for questions about Apple products, and Apple doesn't produce any games. With all the other gaming sites and forums available, Apple has apparently decided not to burden its forums (already the most heavily trafficked ones anywhere on the Web) with gaming. Still, your post here may draw suggestions, so keep an eye on it.

Logitech game controller

I purchased a logitech game controller to use with Aspyr's Call of Duty 2. My MBP recognizes the game controller as an attached USB device, but CD2 doesn't. Any suggestions? I tried it with EA games Medal of Honor with identical results.

Apparently no one has much experience in this. I bought a Wii instead.

I want a game controller that works with imac, I bought a steelseries 3gc but can't figure how to download the driver

I bought a steelseries 3gc game controller for my imac but can't figure how to download the driver. When I try to open, the essage is to open from an application. which one, I,ve tried some . any suggestions?

Solved: There is no driver to install. If the lights come on for your controller, the drivers have successfully been installed and the controller is ready for use. But before you can use it you must buy an app called "Joystick Mapper" from the Mac app store ($5). This will allow you to program the individual buttons' functions per the game you're playing. You will need to program multiple profiles if you plan on playing multiple games, as all games do not share the same button configuration. Also, you can clone game profiles. So if you're playing a shooter, for example, where the zoom and weapon fire buttons may be the same but there's a different button for grenades or secondary fire, you can tweak a few buttons instead of starting over from scratch.

Logitech Game Controller for use in Labview and dealing with possible disconnects

Hello all, I would like to see if there are any suggestions on the following issue. In effect I am using a Logitech game controller to manipulate large scale robots. During operation with these robots I need to plan for the inevitable "accidental" disconnection of the game controller from the computer running labview while it is under operation. Simple to say I can throw the system into standby upon the "ERROR" messages I get, but I want to programmatically be able to "reset" the controller (ie wait for it to be plugged back in) and have the program continue working. However with my work and research thus far that isn't the case. I end up with the same error (even when reconnected, attempted re-initialize, closing the connection, with time delays, and re-initailizing after closing all connections). Nothing seems to work other than closing the program and restarting it (which for the consumer this would be quite frustrating). Suggestions?
Also on a similar note if anyone has any ideas on how to scan for devices prior to using them would be helpful too.
I currently am running Labview 2009 in windows 7. I do realize windows has its unique way of dealing with plug and play devices, and suspect that I may have to play with these features, but I don't know this topic very well.
Thank you all in advance!

Hey Dashiva,
I am assuming that the Game Controller that you are using is connected via USB. Does it show up in the computer's Windows menu when it is plugged in? If so, you can make calls to it using .NET controls that could access the device once it is re-connected. I would also try simply hitting F1 and see if that allows the program to reset the controller.
Good Luck,

What's the best game controller for a MacBook Pro?

I have a mid-2012, non-Retina, 13" MacBook Pro with a 2.5 Ghz i5 and 8 GB of RAM. My current OS is 10.9.1. I've played Starcraft 2 for some time without any problems, but there are a few newer games on the Mac App Store that look like they'd be no fun with a keyboard and mouse. I'm hoping people here have recommendations for the best game pads or controllers that are compatible with Mac.
Please let me know if you have a controller that works really well for you, thanks!

I like the Logitech Gamepad F310 for games on my Mac. You're right new games are much better with a game controller!

I purchased the Logitech F310 game controller for my 2011 MacBook Pro. How do I get the driver installed for it. The Disk that came with the controller is a mini disk and will not insert into my laptop.

May not make a difference anyway. The Logitech support site does not show drivers for Mac OS for the F310:
http://www.logitech.com/en-us/support/gamepad-f310?crid=411
I'd contact their support to find out if there is a Mac driver available, and if they can either give you a web link to get it, e-mail you the software, or snail-mail you a standard-size disk with the drivers.

HT201272 I was re-charged for an app that I re-installed at the game designer's suggestion. How can I get my money back.\?

as above, I was re-charged for downloading an app (game) I had already paid for. This was done at the game designer's suggestion to reset the results. Why was a I charged a second time? What can I do to get a refund?

Unlress you changed it in Settings>General>Restrictions, there is a ten minute window for making additional purchases once you entered you password.
Also, could the charge be for an in-app purchase in the free app?
You can try to get a refund by:

Mac mini iPhone 6 game controller?

can i use my iPhone 6 as a game controller on my mac mini? such as racing games

I don't think I've done anything. Honestly we don't use the computer too much. I'm wondering if Image Capture 4.0 is an older version and maybe we had a recent update that made the program not work anymore.
If there is a way to use Image Capture, I'm all for that but not sure what to do. I will check out the other program after dinner!

Game controller for MacBook Pro?

Are ANY game controllers made especially for Mac? I have tried the Logitech wired version and the Logitech Rumblepad 2 wireless version and neither seem to work with my G5. I even added USB Overdrive, which recognizes the Logitech controllers, and have tried to set the prefs in various games, but still cannot get them to work when the games launch. Seems like there ought to be some easy, plug-and-play game controller for Mac. Any advice? I am very computer literate, yet cannot seem to accomplish this very basic task: Hook up a game controller (that SAYS it works on Mac OS X) and get it to work. (I called Logitech tech support and they said the controllers should work on a Mac, but their driver software and their tech support do not support use on a Mac. Huh?)
