UnoJoy VS GP2040

I am trying to make the arduino work as an Human Interface Device (HID) for a gaming steering wheel that I am trying to revive, so it would work as a plug and play gamepad. I am shorting the pins in red in this image. I found the Unojoy from their github page here, as far as I understood it is a commonly known library for this kind of project. My main problem with this project is to transform arduino input into game input, thats why I am using a library that should make the arduino pretend to be a gamepad or something of the kind.

I have an Arduino Mega set up with (UnojoyMegajoy)[https://github.com/AlanChatham/UnoJoy], it works pretty well.

There’s also the UnoJoy method, which involves reflashing the firmware on the Mega’s usb controller chip to act as a HID https://github.com/AlanChatham/UnoJoy

I'm scratch building a dashboard for SnowRunner which I also hope to use for American Truck Simulator, Euro Truck Simulator, Construction Simulator, etc. My current proof of concept includes potentiometers and buttons connected to an Arduino Mega 2560 running UnoJoy over USB to Windows 10 to Toca Edit's X360ce.

I've never used it on console. The project seems abandonned but it was compatible with PS3 https://github.com/AlanChatham/UnoJoy

STEP 5: upload the code to the arduino, my code is: https://pastebin.com/SM1wJ5tk this code is based in UnoJoy project here: https://github.com/AlanChatham/UnoJoy

If it thinks it's an Uno, you can use UnoJoy. It's not quite as easy to use as guitar configurator and may require you to change some values in the code to match pins up

I think they use https://github.com/FeralAI/GP2040

I've had a great experience with Arduino Pro Micro's running the DaemonBite firmware, and the RPi Pico GP2040 firmware should be similarly great. Both have extremely low latency. The Brook Universal board is another good one. Other than that, I usually just use either a DualShock 3 pad over USB or a wired 360 pad. I also like the iBuffalo SNES pad and Logitech Precision pads.

My third revision of this and looking for feedback to improve. I'm using an secondary USB-C port here to test this schematic before using it on other builds where the Pico placement is constrained by board clearances and mounting holes. The Pico is running GP2040, https://github.com/FeralAI/GP2040, which allows the device to work on multiple systems. I'm new to PCB design and have grabbed some examples posted here before and hopefully following guidelines in the wiki.

It might also be worth checking out the pi pico as the brains, though I believe you need a second piece of hardware to make it work on ps4. The pi pico itself should only be 10$~ not sure how much the ps4 adapter thing would cost. The firmware to look into is https://github.com/FeralAI/GP2040

Hi, does anyone know how to add a PS Home button to your controller? I have a DURAL hitbox which uses GP2040 Firmware (https://github.com/FeralAI/GP2040). I was planning on going to an offline event and needed to make my controller PS4 proof for which I was hoping to use a PS3 to PS4 adapter. However I would still need the PS Home button because PS4 is weird. If anyone knows a solution help would be greatly appreciated.

Microsoft totally does. That's why GP2040, an open source controller firmware, doesn't support Xbox or PS. The way it's typically done now is to have a require a real controller to handle the authentication, with the 3rd party input in between the real controller and the console (passthrough in that chart)
