My first post didn't invite lot's of feedback, but I've worked a more
on the project and found some stuff out. Still have of loose ends,
maybe you can share some thoughts on the following.
All games listed at:
http://www.immersion.com/gaming/game_applications/mac/ support input
through that game controller but the force feedback doesn't work.
From:
Tried BugDom2 Demo - no force feedback
Tried Nascar 2003 Demo - no force feedback
Tried F1 Championship Demo - no force feedback (couldn't install the
force feedback patch listed at the above site).
There is a preliminary Force Feedback SDK but it seems to need some
work to make it work with the standard installed (post MacOSX 10.2.3)
force feedback framework.
http://homepage.mac.com/geowar1/FileSharing1.html (look in smaple
code and download the "FF SDK.sit")
Trying to work on the HID Explorer sample code to access the force
feedback capabilities of the RumblePad2 didn't work and doing some
straight from the docs project also didn't work because of poor
documentation of the Force Feedback API.
Two questions:
Are the RumblePad 2 Force Feedback capabilities accessible on MacsOSX?
If not which game controller actually works (in any of the above scenarios)?
