[Lua lib] Game controller support

[Skrakle]

Here's a new lib that i just finished that will allow game controller support for Lua fans!

Binaries (dll & so): https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=1653f4923c37f970!284&authkey=!AM0p2lTBH1mMSzk&ithint=file%2czip

 

A lua example is provided, you can simply overwrite your existing App.lua with mine on a new test project.

 

* Note: Lua sandbox must be disabled to use libs.

 

Unfortunately i don't have linux installed so i couldn't compile it for that platform and I was able to compile it under Linux but i didn't get the chance to test it as i don't have the sdl2 binary libs.

 

I included the full source should anyone want to re-compile it. Those that don't want to, simply copy LuaGamePad.dll file where your game executable is. You'll need to copy SDL2.DLL there as well, it's included.

 

 

Tested with:

- Logitech Rumblepad

- Xbox 360 controller (XInput)

 

 

Cheers!

The dll file was compiled on 64-bit os, i've recompiled a 32-bit version, you can download it here https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=1653f4923c37f970!281&authkey=!ALGpG7kylnkqhW4&ithint=file%2czip

The 32-bit dll files are now part of the original package listed in the first post.

Hi Skrakle,

 

I placed your DLLS at project root folder , same directory as Lua51.dll,

I modified App.lua, but launching the game i have this package error :

[Skrakle]

One of the dll is probably 64bit, someone else had this problem, i repackaged the binaries, it should work and make sure you disable lua sandbox. https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=1653f4923c37f970!276&authkey=!AOU-Ikv6sEBjcCY&ithint=file%2czip

I got same error.

[Skrakle]

I'm not sure why it's not loading it, seems to be the same behaviour as if sandbox were enabled and if the .dll would be missing, you'd probably get a different error message. I zipped a new werk project that is working, the dlls are in it, i tested it on 2 computers.

The application works correctly for me.

 

XBOX 360 Controller.

Thanks Skrakle!!!

Is this still available for Leadwerks? Can we use newer Xbox controllers with it?

Thanks
