Mac Xbox 360 controller not working (SOLVED)

Questions
#1

I’m new to Defold and loving it so far, thanks for all the hard work!

I’m trying to setup an xbox 360 controller on mac, and having trouble. I see these warnings in the logs:

WARNING:INPUT: No gamepad map registered for gamepad 0, not used.
WARNING:INPUT: No gamepad map registered for gamepad 1, not used.

How do I setup a gamepad map for a gamepad? I read the Device Input in Defold page (https://www.defold.com/manuals/input/) and have configured Gamepad Triggers in game.input_binding.

Thanks!

Ah, I figured it out, Mapping Gamepad, adding not conventional gamepads to Defold helped me.

I had to make a copy of the .gamepads file and the controller identifier was:

Wireless 360 Controller

but the defaults.gamepad had Xbox 360 Controller (for windows)

Not sure if the defaults.gamepad file should be updated to include that, or if it’s just the driver/OS that I’m using (360Controller 0.16.8) (Mac 10.13.6)

Thanks

Great that you solved it!

Perhaps @sicher can take a look at the documentation to see if it can be updated somehow?

Please share the generated mappings and we’ll include them in the defaults.

Ok, I downloaded gdc to configure the gamepad, here’s the generated file: default.gamepads.zip (552 Bytes)

Thank you. I’ll add it to our defaults. I encourage others to contribute bindings as well!
