GlovePIE VS squirrel

I tried to use that program years ago, wasn't really satisfied. I believe there's a program that will let you use the keyboard as a... keyboard, I guess. https://github.com/Ravbug/GlovePIE

In theory you could use GlovePIE to map one of the keyboards to buttons in a virtual joystick.

I use GlovePIE to get around most of those. It's annoying that I have to set that up in the first place, but it works well.

The more boring way is install GlovePIE (see https://github.com/Ravbug/GlovePIE for an preservation archive site as the original site has fallen into disrepair) & use an IR sensor bar (like the original Wii sensor bar, which is just a set of 2 IR transmitters that the Wii used as a fixed reference point) to use it as an HID, like a mouse.

https://github.com/Ravbug/GlovePIE i use a software called glovepie to interpret MIDI inputs as keyboard presses. with this software you can use any MIDI device to emulate keyboards, mice, controllers, or whatever you want. here is my script that i created to use my piano as input for Lunatic Rave 2 and similar rhythm games as an example. There is also a built in GUI based key mapper which is helpful to set up MIDI devices (just press a button on the device and then the button you want to emulate).

Nice. The language looks really nice! I started out with GlovePIE (site went down about 1-2 years ago) (image). It was more a hotkey scripting/assigning language, allowing multiple types of syntax (bash or c like). I used it to map my Wii Remote to the keyboard and initially played some games using the classic controller mapped to mouse and keyboard.

You could try using Freepie or Glovepie this is how I bind my wii controllers to PC games.

Check out GlovePie.

You can use GlovePie on windows to have it output MIDI. I have been using it for years now. If you want the script I run for it feel free to DM me.

Just cleaning it to connect it to my PC using Glovepie: https://github.com/Ravbug/GlovePIE/releases/

Not that hard, actually: http://www.squirrel-lang.org/

I just downloaded it last night I learned on Lua and it's still my favorite language this is kinda based on it from.what I've read anyone try it yet any anythingjust in case y'all think I'm crazy there's the link to there home page I'm not playing with roadkill calling it programming or training squirrels or at least that's not what this is about

A question: would it be too much work to port Love2D to a different embedding language? (I'm currently having looks at Squirrel (http://www.squirrel-lang.org/) I always thought Lua was tightly coupled with the framework, but what you've mentioned seems to imply that's not the case.

The second one that comes to mind is Squirrel, which is a compiled language designed to be embedded into other programs. It’s similar to lua in concept, but closer to C in syntax. I never did a lot with it, but I did learn it.
