Hello everyone,
I'm playing with the easyHID software and the great example USBDEMO (thank you mister E!) It works very well, but now I would like to program my PIC to act as a game controller so it will show up in the game controllers control panel. This way I will be able to use it with the Max/Msp programming language. I tried different PID/VID's but that does not seem to work. Anyone has an idea? thank you

Hi eggman,

I was about to post a similar thread. I want to make a "joystick" card that has 8 axes, 32 button inputs, and 4 POV inputs, but I am having trouble finding what I need to do.

I suspect it is all to do with the descriptor, and knowing what to do with it.
I could not find a working link to easyHID, so I am using HID maker FS. Any help would be appreciated.

Regards
Bob...

Hello Bob,
Yes I delved a bit further into the USB stuff, the descriptor has to tell the host it is a joystick or game controller with so many channels and buttons. I don't think this can be done with easyhid, but maybe I'm wrong. Mechanique seems to have removed the easyHID download from their website but I found a copy here:

I found something else: www.create.ucsb.edu/~dano/CUI/ It's programmed in C but seems interesting
