[NEW VERSION] Sota's 14 buttons + optional up to 2 analog sticks guide for a Leonardo Pro Micro (Teensy alternative)

[tinkerBOY]

I'm trying to program a Pro Micro with Sota's code for dual joysticks. I bought the generic blue board version and added all the extra files needed, but it wont pick up in Arduino. If anyone has any direction, I would really appreciate it. I kept getting COM errors and the lovely 'JoyState_t' does not name a type Error. I'm on Arduino 1.0.5r2 like it says is needed..

You can try this link on how to program the Pro Micro as a USB controller.

Got it now! I had issues getting the serial port working. And I guess my generic blue colored Pro Micro had to be selected as "Arduino Leonardo" in the Arduino program.

Many thanks!

Is anyone happy to edit his code and add a debouncing delay please? I keep getting issues with multiple presses and its causing my Pi problems :l

As for double/tripple presses:
Regarding Softwareproblems you can either use another joystick-Library ( more difficult ), but the easier Method would be to add a Delay at the end of your Method.

Code: Select all

Delay(100); // This will add a 100ms ( 1/10 second ) Delay

Here's the delay. Add it to the end.

Hi, thx a lot for a great guide.
Im just wondering. I made everything listed like in your guide but i dont understand how I have to configure the pins in the script.
I wired my pins :

Pin A : TX0
Pin B : RX1
Pin Y : 3
Pin X : 2
Pin Start : 4
Pin Select : 5
Pin Dpad right : 9
Pin Dpad down : 7
Pin Dpad up : 6
Pin Dpad left : 8
Pin R1 : 14
Pin L1: 10

What should I change exactly in the Button configuration.

Thx for help

I love this, it works amazingly well with RetroPie. But when I was testing it’s output against an iBUFFALO SNES-style gamepad, I noticed the signals were coming out completely differently. I went in and reassigned the numbers to make it resemble a similar output but this was the best I could do. Any thoughts?

P.S. - this is for a WS usb controller, so I mapped the second D pad to look like the shoulder buttons, hence there being two sets of D pads.

Is there anyway to get this script to work on a Teensy LC?

Hello,

I do not understand what to do to use analog sticks and what are the next steps for me.

So far, the installation is completed but now i must configure the buttons, but i dont know how ?
