Title: Force feedback-support - linux-prototyp works - wanted?
Post by: bratfisch on August 24, 2010, 06:11:45 PM
Hi!

I recently bought gish, one thing is IMHO really missing: support for force feedback...

As I got a xbox-controller with usb-adapter, I just started to do some hacking:
Force-feedback won't be possible OS-indepently because SDL will start supporting force feedback with SDL-1.3, which is not yet ready, but the native linux-way is quite easy...

so:
#ifdef LINUX
After some hacking, a .5-sec rumble is done when the player is hurted - IMHO a good starting point Smiley
#endif

Is there someone willing to join the development?

Regards

If you have access to the Novint Falcon you should check out the Falcon version of Gish, it has some really cool feedback:
