Supporting DsHidMini driver

Open Jobima1st opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Seems that https://github.com/ViGEm/DsHidMini not supported in RetroArch ~~at least it don't do auto configuration (tested with the SXS mode in DsHidMini)~~

DsHidMini Support PS2 and PS3 Controllers with full features like Pressure sensitive buttons https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/11721 and even Motion controls a.k.a. SIXAXIS (Gyroscope, Accelerometer) even if the RetroArch don't have ps3 core yet it can be used in wii games

the libretro API doesn't support analog buttons, so it wouldn't really work, unfortunately.

New SDL 3 with its pressure-sensitive support is a hope for pressure-sensitive games (it supports official Sony driver and DsHidMini in SXS mode). But for this, buttons like ABXY somehow will have to be analog, not digital. After this change maybe it will be even possible to map triggers to the most important pressure-sensitive buttons (like B and Y for racing games).

I really hope the libretro team add it! aside from PS2 and PS3 or even wii, Imagine how wonderful if we have Adaptive Turbo Buttons with PS3 DS3 Pressure Sensitive Buttons, Turbo Buttons are useful in for many systems like NES if someone didn't get what Adaptive Turbo Buttons meaning, it mean with light pressure will make the rate of Turbo slower and with hard pressure the rate will increase
