Multiple instances, inter-process communication

[mrangry777]

Thx, for info I will try it out ASAP

I have a small issue concerning the network API. You wrote that byte[1] should have value of 124. When i try it out I get

Code: Select all

adapter_network_read: wrong packet size

I did some diggin' around and found out that this value should actually be set to

Code: Select all

sizeof(adapter->axis)

So depending on adapter used it will change. Could you clarify this for me? And give me all possible values? Or is just a constant?

You are right, the value is wrong.

For the official 3.5 version, byte[1] has to be 120.
For the test version, byte[1] has to be 128.

I'll clarify this on the wiki.

I tried out WinUSB drivers. The workaround you described does not work. The second instance fails to lunch with:

Code: Select all

libusb_open: other error

Both DYI work if lunched separately.

Did you plug one DS4 controller for each instance?

[mrangry777]

Of course, and I can confirm they are both up because:
1) The workaround I described earlier still works (but only using libusbK using WinUSB same error)
2) In zadig I see two DS4 controllers

[mrangry777]

any chance of further work on the problem?

[Matlo]

Don't expect something in a near future.

Did you try with multiple GPP instances?

Hi,
Sorry for a late response but I was on holidays for a while. I made some preliminary testing and it looks ok One thing though I use gimx from command line and the value for --port is a bit long plus I dunno if it does or does not change through system restarts. I will do so more testing during this weekend.

P.S Could you start a fund raising for features related with this thread? I would like to chip in as a thank you for all your hard work:)

Hi,
Microsoft is responsible for the length of the device name
Hopefully it should not change between reboots.
