Gamepad Extender version 1.1 by Lone Wolf Introduction: By default, RGSS3 uses DirectInput to make only 8 buttons available to scripters. This script provides an alternate, XInput-based gamepad interface, giving scripters access to all 16 buttons on a modern gamepad, as well as dual-analog sticks, analog triggers, and force-feedback controls. Also enables multiplayer for up to four players with compatible gamepads. Features: Doubles the number of available buttons. Easy access to analog sticks and triggers. Basic force-feedback control. Support for up to four controllers simultaneously. NEW: analog stick directions can now be treated like individual buttons Video: Spoiler FAQ: Q: What controllers will work? A: Any PC-specific USB controller made in the last five years should work without issue. Older controllers, console controller adapters, etc. will need XInput drivers or an XInput emulator. Google is your friend. Q: No Guide button? A: No Guide button. It uses a separate interface from XInput and is generally reserved by the system. Q: Can you make this work in...? A: This is the VX Ace version. An outdated VX port can be found here. I am not planning any further ports at this time. Q: I installed this script, so why doesn't my gamepad work? A: This script adds a new module to handle input from modern gamepads, but doesn't change any of the script core's default button calls. To actually use any of the new possible mappings (or the additional PadConfig module's bindings), you need to manually edit the input related functions in the default scripts (Game_Player and Window_Selectable are good places to start). Comments for specific functions are included in the main script body. Credit and Tanks: -Lone Wolf -An old forum post on Win32API I clearly should have bookmarked. Script: Spoiler Code: #============================================================================== # Gamepad Extender v1.1 (2/20/15) # by Lone Wolf #------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # This allows scripters to utilize the extra buttons on modern # XInput-compatible gamepads. It requires DirectX 9.0 or later and # an XInput compatible gamepad. Incompatible pads will default to # using the standard Input module functionality. # # This is not a plug-and-play script. # Some knowledge of RGSS is required for proper use. # # Instructions: # 1) Paste in the Materials section # 2) Replace button calls in (other) scripts to use gamepad buttons as needed # (see Command Reference below) # Optional: # 2) Use the PadConfig section to specify button differences between # Gamepad and Keyboard (for players without gamepads) # 3) Replace direct button calls in your scripts (and the defaults) with # PadConfig calls or these will do nothing # (see Command Reference below) #------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # Command Reference: #------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # All calls to extended buttons on Pad 1 can be made through the Input module. # When using multiple pads, send calls to WolfPad with pad number (0...3) # as the final parameter. (i.e. WolfPad.press?(:A, 3) ) # # The current list of mappable buttons is as follows: # # :A, :B, :X, :Y - XBOX 360 standard face buttons. # :L1, :L2, :R1, :R2 - Four triggers (LB, LT, RB, RT) # :SELECT, :START - Back and Start buttons # :L3, :R3 - Clickable Analog buttons # # :UP, :DOWN, # :LEFT, :RIGHT - D-Pad buttons # # :L_UP, :L_DOWN # :L_LEFT, :L_RIGHT - Left stick directions # # :R_UP, :R_DOWN # :R_LEFT, :R_RIGHT - Right stick directions # # NON-STANDARD MAPPINGS WILL DO NOTHING without a compatible gamepad. # To that end, use calls to PadConfig to remap non-standard keys into # the standard domain where possible. # # for example: Input.trigger?(PadConfig.page_down) # will return :R1 if a gamepad is plugged in, but :R otherwise # # Analog values can be referenced with the following commands: # left_stick # right_stick # left_trigger # right_trigger # # Directional values of analog sticks can be referenced with these: # lstick4 # lstick8 # rstick4 # rstick8 # # Controller vibration can be accessed with these: # vibrate(left_motor, right_motor, frame_duration) # set_motors(left_motor, right_motor) # # All functions take an optional gamepad id (0-3) as their final parameter. # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # Terms of Use: #------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # If you use it, give credit. With a few caveats: # # Can't call it alpha nay more, but I consider this script in-development. # I make no guarantees of compatibility with other scripts. # # Contact me via PM is you plan on using this in a commercial game. # I probably won't charge anything, but I will want to know it's out there. # # This script was posted at the official RPG Maker forums. # Do modify or redistribute this script by itself,…
