Using xbox 360 controller, is it possible?

Is there a class I need to get or is it not even possible to use the xbox 360 controller in java

I'm guessing it's possible, but you would need an adapter to plug it into your computer (or have a working Java JRE on your XBox) and likely require some JNI to communicate with the port to which you attach the controller. I've never tried it, but I'm just saying I believe it is possible.

Creating a Controller Patch to Use XBox 360 Controller for a Video Game

After months of searching, a video game I like doesn't seem to have a patch where you can use anything other than a joystick (well...keyboard and mouse obviously, but that gets old!). I'm thinking I should make the patch (is patch the right term?)
for the world to enjoy. Fairly adept developer, but need a place to start with this. Can anybody point me in the right direction?
May the fleas of a thousand camels feast happily on the lower regions of your enemies. And may their arms be too short to scratch!

Using the xbox 360 controller in my java application

Wanted to know if there is a way to get the xbox 360 controller or the nintendo wii to work with my java application. Has anyone been able to access either controller using java.
Thanks
GradStudent

nope. you can use jinput to use game controllers... but only game controllers
that can be plugged in and have a driver.
i dont have any game systems, do the controllers have a usb attachment and computer drivers?

Using a Xbox 360 controller with Qosmio G30

Hi,
I'm trying to use the xbox 360 controller with pro evo soccer 2010 on my laptop.
At first it was flashing, but then it stopped.
The drivers and everything have installed correctly, is there any other way???
In device manager, there are no exclamation marks, it seems fine.
But the game wont play, unless I use the keyboard.

Hello
Maybe the controller is faulty.
Have you tested it on your Xbox 360 and does it work?
Can you also test another controller?

How do I use the Xbox 360 controller

Hello,
As everyone knows the XBOX 360 controller is the definitive controller for Windows gaming.
I'm working on two projects now. One in Flash and one in Unreal Engine. I thought,"Wouldn't it be great to work on three projects at once."
So the idea came to me that a comedic style hockey game could be made in Flash. Flash is great for action games, and the P2P networking(thought could have been done better) is just sufficient to make a good multiplayer experience.
I do not however want an action oriented hockey game without analog sticks. I've gotten the XBOX 360 controller to work in C/C++ in a Tekken Style Open Wolrd Game, and it was great. Where do I get the XBOX360 code to integrate them into a flash game?
,Jim

The GameInput API's for Actionscript 3.0. You can get when you download and install the Adobe Gaming SDK, after that you would need to import the SWC.

Wired xbox 360 controller used for PC

I have tried literally everything I can think of, I searched it, and a resounding solution were these steps:
1) Download the drivers from "Can't post links yet"
2) Choose Gaming > Xbox 360 Controller for Windows > Windows 7 64 bit > English.Don't run the drivers. Save them to a folder. (Or Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows depending on your controller)
3) Right click the Xbox360_64Eng file in the folder you downloaded to and click "create shortcut"
4) Right click the shortcut you created. Select properties.
5) On the compatibility tab in properties, click "Run this program in compatibility mode" ChooseWindows Server 2008 Service Pack 1 as the compatibility mode. Apply setting and click ok.
6) Right Click on the shortcut and select "Run as administrator"
7) With your controller plugged in go to Device Manager. You should see Microsoft Common Controller for Windows Class. It located under Mice and other pointing if you do, you have arrived. If you don't, try this.
Continue only if you don't see Microsoft Common Controller for Windows Class in Device Manager
8) Right click the unknown device that shows a problem.
9) Update Driver Software > Browse My computer for Driver Software > Let Me Pick from a List of Drivers
10) Choose Microsoft Common Controller for Windows Class > XBOX 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows
I have tried the steps in order countless times. tried many different compatability modes, and to no avail am I able to get the "Microsoft Common Controller for Windows Class" to show up. so I continue through the next 3 steps (8-10) and
the option listed in step 10 is not available. and I have been trying to fix this since 7:00 AM this morning.....

Hi,
Are we download the driver from the following link?

Interface an Xbox 360 controller

Can any one tell me how you can use the Xbox360 controller in labview8? Is there already code for it somewhere? Ideally i want to use it as a school project and having it light up simple boolean lights when the button is pressed but i dont know how to get started. Thanks for the help.

Hi
How did you get on with the Xbox 360 to LabVIEW interface? I’m just about to try this out myself but before I buy PC XBOX 360 Controller [1] I was wondering if you managed it or not?
Did the standard USB joystick vis work and if so how much functionality did they give you?
Did you develop your own interface if so would it be possible to get a copy?
Thanks for your help

[solved] Xbox 360 Controller (wired) as mouse

So I'm mouseless but have an unused Xbox 360 Controller. How can I get it to function as a mouse?
ls /dev/input gives:
by-id by-path event0 event1 event2 event3 event4 event5 js0 mice mouse0
and dmesg gives:
usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2
input: Microsoft X-Box 360 pad as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.1/usb3/3-1/3-1:1.0/input/input5
usbcore: registered new interface driver xpad
xpad: X-Box pad driver
I've run the usual gamut of google/forum searches to no avail. Seems that most people who do have their controllers functioning as a mouse are looking for ways to disable the behavior. As always, thanks for the help.

Update: Found qjoypad which does the trick

Xbox 360 controller support

I've found a couple of old threads that require a recompilation of the kernel or a kernel patch (I think) or recompilation of a module in order to get XBox 360 controller working, but those were from 2.6.24 or 2.6.28. Is that still necessary? Can someone point me in the right direction for how to get my box to recognize and use the XBox 360 controller? I've modprobed joydev and xpad, but all dmesg says when I plug in the controller is
usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 5
usb 3-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
Suggestions?

Grid Wars looks for the joysticks registered as /dev/js(0,1,2,etc). So if you ever get the controller registered under /dev/input just symlink the /dev/input/jsX to /dev/jsX.

XBox 360 controller doesn't work in game in Outlast

I got Outlast, that new horror game, and a Wolf Among Us. I installed Tattleboogie's drivers and using an wired xbox 360 controller (original). In Wolf Among Us it works fine, in the Tattleboogie's settings everything shows as working with responce on every button, but in Outlast, even though the controller is identified and shows up in settings and in the menus as if it were working, it simply doesn't. I get no responce from presses at all.
Also, I've tried Game Companion and Joystick Mapper, but those just doesn't work. I can get some movement, but it's irregular and doesn't correspond properly. So I do NOT want to use that kind of software, and shouldn't need to since Outlast should have full controller support and obviously recognize it.
So anyone know anything about this?
I'm running on a Macbook Pro 13" with Mavericks installed.

Xbox 360 controller works in mate desktop but not DWM?

Hello,
I just switched to DWM from mate desktop. I use my xbox 360 controller with steam home streaming. Worked perfectly under mate but it doesnt work at all in DWM.
The xbox controller light is on in dwm and I can confirm it still works under mate. I tried installing xf86-input-joystick but no joy. (didnt need this under mate)
Anyone know what makes this work in mate desktop or how to make it work in dwm?
Many Thanks.
PS: Don't know if it helps but my .xinitrc is just a copy of /etc/skel
#!/bin/sh
# ~/.xinitrc
# Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)
if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ]; then
for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/*; do
[ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
done
unset f
fi
setxkbmap gb &
exec dwm
#exec mate-session

I installed this driver:
http://tattiebogle.net/index.php/ProjectRoot/Xbox360Controller/OsxDriver
And now my MBP reliably recognizes the controller (evident by it showing me what commands it is receiving in the preference pane created by this driver), but I've found that getting an individual game to behave nicely with the controller is a whole other ball of wax...good luck.
