Hi, I am very new to Handmade Hero and am really enjoying the series.

Im only at 'Day 006 - Gamepad and Keyboard Input'.

Does Casey ever cover how to add support for 'legacy controllers'.?

I only have an old 'Logitech Dual Action G-UF13A' controller that I found stored away in a dusty old box.

Would like to get some success and see it working :D

Anyone know a basic way to get it working that is similar to the way done for 'XInput' shown in the 'Day 006' video?

Thank you,

At the moment, Casey hasn't add support for legacy controllers. You can probably use DirectInput to use your controller. A comparison of XInput and DirectInput.

Or you can install software that will emulate Xinput API for your legacy controller: https://www.x360ce.com/

I'll take the adventure. Cheers

p.s. the first link is broken

I came across the above YouTube, it is not c-style but c++.

I kind of wanted to keep it close to Casey's tradition, all good info however.
