Project description
Code
8joy.json
json
this is my specific vjoyserialfeeder profile. If you build exactly my controller, and use my sketch, then this profile will work automatically. all you need to do is "import" the profile in vjoyserialfeeder
vjoyserialfeeder
takes a serial data input and converts it to a joystick input. Follow the directions on this page to install vjoy, and vjoyserialfeeder. You can use my 8joy.json or it's easy to simply make your own profile in vjoyserialfeeder.
my build-specific sketch
arduino
This is simply my specific sketch config for the vjoyserialfeeder recommended sketch. The pin numbers are already set, and my project uses pull-down resistors, also requiring a minor sketch edit. -- IMPORTANT -- you will also need "ibus.h" and "ibus.cpp" from the vjoyserial respository.
