X360(wireless) -> PC - GIMX (EMUPS3) -> Nintendo Switch (with N100 adapter) - WORKING (no rumble)

Post by Daz »

Hi,


I'm using an x360 pad wirelessly with the original "microsoft wireless receiver" on win10/64.
It works flawlessly with a nintendo switch using a $8 N100 Controller-adapter !

... just rumble is missing so far.
Using a dualshock-3 directly wired to the n100-adapter (fw 2.04) produces rumble without any problems, so it's not the adapter, obviously.
The x360-pad's rumble is working fine as well (on an Xbox One and a PS4 through a CronusMax) and of course tons of other windows games.

I've tried different emu-firmwares but only the EMUPS3 works without quitting instantly - I guess because there's no auth. required/ original-controller connected to windows ... (?)

- Is the EMUPS3 (sixaxis) firmware supposed to produce rumble at all ?
- would I have to use a different Emu-firmware to get rumble ?

Or, in other words, how can I get rumble on my wireless x360 pad at all ?

thanks in advance ...

Hi,

This is probably a problem with the SDL2 library, which is used to handle joysticks on Windows.

I opened a new issue: https://github.com/matlo/GIMX/issues/476
I have no idea about when I'll have some time to work on it.

Hmkay. disappointing.

Is this directly related to the Xbox360 wireless receiver or does no controller work with vibration/ rumble (DS4, XB1 ...) ?
Would be nice to know before I start trying all possible configs ...

thanks in advance

I think this is related to the Xbox 360 controller on Windows.

This should be fixed in GIMX 7.6. It requires updating the adapter firmware with the latest EMUPS3.
