It's a Windows driver problem. The Mac driver reads both triggers as separate elements, but with PC we have the problem of them being the same element.

I'm working on porting my Mac Xbox patch to PC, so I just ran into this issue recently. Have you been able to find a work-around?

Hi!

No, unfortunately I never found a solution for this problem. So this is caused by the windows driver I guess?

That's a bummer. The windows driver combine the two triggers as one element, the Z-axis. It's odd, but apparently that's how it is for Xbox too. The hardware itself reads it as two separate elements, that's how the fan-made driver for Mac was able to separate the two.

I guess when programming the controller to work with games there's always some kind of work around. I don't know if it'll work in Max, but if I find a solution I'll post it here!

These two threads helped me come to this realization: http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/145763/xbox-360-pressing-both-triggers-simultaneously.html http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/40542-Need-Help-Xbox-360-PC-controller-Triggers

Let me know if you're able to find some kind of solution.

edit:

give me ten minutes . . .

Ok, more like twenty minutes :) The solution assumes that your incoming data is formatted as follows:

"8 leftTrigVals" "8 rightTrigVals" ....etc

The challenge is to remove unwanted data and to identify and tag wanted data. If the two separate streams are coming in as one combined then, this may not be what you seek and I will need more time. . . . HTH:

Brendan,

I tested out your patch by adding it to mine. It works a lot better than what I had for the triggers and it's a good enough work-around for now, but I was wondering if there is anyway that the data values could be sent more smoothly. They seem to jump over some values as the triggers are pressed down. Also, pressing both of the triggers at the same time kind of works now, but every so often their values jump back down to zero.

I really appreciate that you took the time to write out this patch. Again, it's a good work-around and I'm satisfied for now. Let me know if you're able to make it more smooth. I'll be testing it more too. Thanks!

Hi If you're getting what sounds like foldover behaviour, use the zmap or scale plus clip objects. As for smoothing, type that word into the forum search box for a universe of solutions

Thanks, Brendan! I appreciate your help!

Any new info on this problem, Moded drivers? New techniques" The problem is still pending? Can't find any solution or explanation why the output data is so weird on windows.

could you please teach me how to connect Wwise and Max with OSC???I'm a game audio designer and try to do some intereactive works but struggled in this such things .
