Hey guys,

Planning on buying a logitech joystick. I would like to have a usb joystick instead of joypad.

I am thinking of buying one of these two:

What I really would like to know, Can I read X Y accurate from this? Not just + and - but really accurate, like +100, -102 etc…

Thanks!

So if the joystick is a standard usb device (which it should be since its logitech) then support for it is supported by the Micro Framework (here’s a guide I found by googling: http://www.tinyclr.com/downloads/Beginners%20guide%20to%20NETMF.pdf look @ pg. 105. Notice who the author is)

Once Fez recognizes it, you’re good to go!

I think he wants to know if it’s works or not , before he buy the joystick :stuck_out_tongue:

But I agree , when it was a normal standard joystick it works.

If a joystick works on your windows without windows asking for drivers then it will work on FEZ with out the need for any special drivers.

99.99% of joysticks out there are standard HID joystick and so they will work with no drivers on windows and on FEZ

I know, I am already aware that time is a crucial factor.

Hahah, I’m already done with my project, I just need to redo parts of my page, which I could do in like 10 minutes or so.

I have to make documentation, implement the joystick, complete the code (will cut off pieces), and make it all look nice.

I will definitely have to reduce the project… I do not have much time this week… pity… :frowning:
