I should probably stop you right there

#

We don't really help out with console ports, let alone GMS 1.4 is pretty obsolete

marble storm
#

Well, I'm guessing it's a gamepad issue

slow cedar
#

When it comes to consoles

marble storm
#

Don't really think about the console part

slow cedar
#

You said "port a project to the PS3"

marble storm
#

Cuz it could happen with any gamepad

#

Yes, indeed

slow cedar
#

That's relevant

marble storm
#

Okay, let me rename it, then

#

Crash with gamepad

slow cedar
#

Okay cool

#

Well then

#

PS3 controllers don't even work without third party drivers (I believe maybe Steam Input can make it work)

#

Much stranger that no other gamepad would work though

marble storm
#

I always default it to whatever device is plugged, honestly. But that's not the issue

slow cedar
#

How do you determine what's the default?

marble storm
#

I'm gonna let a long paragraph about it, and hope for the best

#

Basically

#

When you are, for example, doing gamepad_button_check_press(0, ...), that 0 determines that is whatever device is plugged in, while it accepts it

slow cedar
#

And there's your problem

#

Not all gamepads are at index 0, especially on Windows

marble storm
#

It's working for any other part of the project except that one. I'm not working on Windows currently

slow cedar
#

Then what platform?

marble storm
#

Like, I'm testing the project on PS3, yes

#

BUT

#

The problem is not the console

#

It's how I'm managing the gamepad control

#

Cuz it works fine with other parts of the project

#

Except this mf one

slow cedar
#

Yeah look, if this is PS3

#

Then you're out of luck

marble storm
#

Well, I still can ask

slow cedar
#

Let me reiterare

marble storm
#

And wait for an answer, if it ever happens

slow cedar
#

No one here can help out with outdated consoles

#

Let alone, we aren't a console support server

marble storm
#

The console is not the problem

hidden shale
#

Does it work on Windows?

marble storm
#

It does, yes

#

Cuz I'm doing it with mouse

hidden shale
#

Then the console is the problem

marble storm
#

And with mouse, it all works correctly

slow cedar
hidden shale
#

wait so does using a controller on windows work?

slow cedar
#

No mouse

#

No keyboard

marble storm
#

I'm trying to adapt what I'm doing with my mouse, to a gamepad

slow cedar
#

Controller only

#

Does it work on Windows?

marble storm
#

I haven't tested it, but I'm pretty sure it won't

hidden shale
#

TEST

slow cedar
#

You need to test it

hidden shale
#

IT

slow cedar
#

TEST IT

#

We can't help if you're not testing it correctly

hidden shale
#

And if it's a console issue, we cannot help you as console shit is behind several layers of NDA that I haven't signed

slow cedar
#

Neither have I

slow cedar
marble storm
#

Yeah, right. Thank you.
