ArduinoXInput VS Xb2XInput

I am currently trying to create a controller for windows that shows up as an Xbox 360 controller or some other game compliant HID controller. I initially tried following this tutorial, however, the code provided does not work for my purpose because it includes all the buttons of a normal controller whereas I just need a joystick input, and one button. Can someone help me write code using the ArduinoXinput that programs 1 joystick and 1 button input on the Arduino Pro micro?

There are arduino libraries that’ll work with boards like the teensy and pro nano - https://github.com/dmadison/ArduinoXInput

I would of thought xinput would work on Steam? Pretty sure my 8bit duo uses xinput

I ended up purchasing some Arduini clones on Amazon and losing this: https://github.com/dmadison/ArduinoXInput

define "profile" a set of associations from digital/analog pins to logical joystick button, joystick axis (both traditional and xinput, I saw there's a library to support that https://github.com/dmadison/ArduinoXInput), keyboard button, mouse button, mouse movement identifiers.

Did you follow all the instructions to use this library, found here?

Well a simple option would to use a library that makes a arduino act like xbox 360 controller. Like This One and use the map function in the coding to spread out the pots signals accordingly

You can use one these https://www.amazon.com/Controller-Adapter-Cable-Third-Party/dp/B000RT2868 with this driver https://github.com/emoose/Xb2XInput. This works perfect for me.

It is simple, you need an adapter or you can make one(it is easy, just cut the breakway extension cable and strip the wires red, black, green and white then connect them to the wires of any usb cable you have in the same manner, this video will help you). But don't use the old XBCD driver, it is better to use this wonderful Github project.

I bought those controllers for 8 dollars each and they are in excellent condition, I tested them on my PC using an adapter that I made and this wonderful project GitHub - emoose/Xb2XInput: XB2X: User-mode Windows driver for Xbox OG controllers, supporting both XInput and DirectInput.

You can use them on PC thanks to this wonderful Github project, feel free to ask any question, good luck!

you simply strip the cable and connect the four wires to a USB cable or you can buy a cheap adapter and there is an open source driver

XBCD is shit. Xb2Xinput is where it's at. Even lets you set deadzones to stop old shitty sticks drifting.
