[TUTORIAL] ~ RPi + GIMX + G27 + PS4 + DriveClub = WORKING

[jhonny]

Is this something you're planning to look into Matlo ?

Would you require a Thrustmaster wheel ?

I just did some research and looks like T300RS is the only wheel right now on PS4 that supports 3 pedals and H shifter.

Although from this video here it looks like the H shifter doesn't work in PS4 right now ?

EDIT: Confirmed it doesn't work on DriveClub. (It might on GT7 / if when that comes out)

great tutorial, jhonny!

did you notice any lag from turning the wheel to the in-game reaction ?

[jhonny]

No lag it's very precise. And the CPU utilisation on the rpi is less than 30%. Because once you set it up you don't need to run X

No, I've not planned to look into this.
Yes, I would require a Thrustmaster wheel to be able to analyse the USB protocol.

Maybe I should start a fundraising so that I can buy a T300RS?

[jhonny]

Yep, might be a good idea

I'd be happy to chip in for that.

When Gran Truism 7 gets announced i'll be yearning to use my G27

Excellent

I've donated $150 to the cause
Can't wait to see what you can do with this bad boy

Hi,
first of all thank you for giving us logitech users a possibility to use our devices on the ps4.
I want to to test gimx to use my g27 together with my ps4.
I had everything already at home besides the teensy and a powered usb hub.

I have bought a usb hub and borrowed a Atmel AT90USBKEY from my collegue.
It has also a AT90USB1287 as mentioned in the datasheet http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/5088.pdf

I thought that this usb development board would also work because your EMUPS4PAIRING also contained a file "at90usb1287.hex" which i flashed with the tool "flip" on my windows machine.

But when i attach the usb board to my RPI it won't get past the point "plug the teensy".
I checked in dmesg and i get these lines when I connect the board.
[28653.661875] usb 1-1.3: new full-speed USB device number 101 using dwc_otg
[28653.741925] usb 1-1.3: device descriptor read/64, error -32
[28653.931931] usb 1-1.3: device descriptor read/64, error -32

[28654.201932] usb 1-1.3: device descriptor read/64, error -32
[28654.391962] usb 1-1.3: device descriptor read/64, error -32
[28654.581980] usb 1-1.3: new full-speed USB device number 103 using dwc_otg
[28655.001831] usb 1-1.3: device not accepting address 103, error -32
[28655.082057] usb 1-1.3: new full-speed USB device number 104 using dwc_otg

[28655.502107] hub 1-1:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 3

So i guess that the hex file won't work with my board which i have currently borrowed. Is this correct?
I guess that i will buy a teensy board myself but before i have the question if it doesn't matter if i buy a 2.0 or a 2.0 ++, 3.0 ,3.1 teensy?

Hi and happy new year,

The first thing to try is to change the usb cable, because it may be defective.
Because the RPi kernel had usb issues at some point, you should make sure your kernel is a recent one.

Hi I did that, i also tested 3 different cables without luck. As one cable was also used in the flashing process i don't think this could be a cause.

Code: Select all

dmesg:
[    2.010314] dwc_otg: FIQ enabled

Some other idea? if not i will order a Original teensy.
Which just leaves this question open:
