[Bug 25729] New: Dead Space joypad always looks up

Summary: Dead Space joypad always looks up Product: Wine Version: 1.3.11 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-dinput AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: H3g3m0n@gmail.com

When the game starts while a joypad is plugged in, the character will always look up. Other that that the gamepad works fine.

Unplugging the gamepad after starting the game doesn't stop the looking up.

Someone else reported a similar problem in the first post here: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=14457

Is this still an issue with 1.7.0 or higher ?

--- Comment #8 from Rixa rixa@cs.tut.fi --- I'm not sure if this is a bug as such or just unexpected circumstances. The heart of the problem is that the game mistakes the triggers for the right stick. It's looking up and rotating because the triggers are fully released. Press the triggers about halfway and you'll see.

I have gotten this with x360 and xbone controllers in several directinput games. When I do, I have this file ready with axis settings for my controllers (through xpad.ko, xboxdrv, wired and wireless) that I regedit /s:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\DirectInput] "Microsoft X-Box 360 pad (event)"="X,Y,Slider1,Z,Rz,Slider2,POV1" "Xbox Gamepad (userspace driver) (event)"="X,Y,Z,Rz,POV1" "Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver (XBOX) (event)"="X,Y,Slider1,Z,Rz,Slider2" "Microsoft X-Box One pad (event)"="X,Y,Slider1,Z,Rz,Slider2,POV1"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\DirectInput\Joysticks] "Microsoft X-Box 360 pad (js)"="disabled" "Xbox Gamepad (userspace driver) (js)"="disabled" "Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver (XBOX) (js)"="disabled" "Microsoft X-Box One pad (js)"="disabled"

The latter part disables the sticks through the js interface so they aren't visible twice as they are by default, which too is kind of odd. I wish wine also had settings for remapping buttons, but that's bug #35815.

--- Comment #12 from Bruno Jesus 00cpxxx@gmail.com --- Thanks for the log, please use "wine control joy.cpl" and disable the js joystick and try only with the event joystick, if it does not work try enabling the js and disabling the event one. I say this because from your log the game is polling both joystick drivers at the same time. Maybe we can narrow this bug to a particular drive.

No luck -- the same issue using only js or only event driver.

--- Comment #14 from Bruno Jesus 00cpxxx@gmail.com --- Well, we are not alone, windows users also report the issue:

Advices are: remove the gamepad =/

As comment 8 states the game is using the wrong axes to control the camera. An Xbox 360 controller has 6 axes:

- left stick horizontal; - left stick vertical; - right stick horizontal; - right stick vertical; - RT button; - LT button.

The game is choosing RT/LT to control the camera instead of the right stick. This could still be a problem in wine, if the game is requesting the axes using specific flags that we currently ignore or do not implement. Otherwise there is nothing we can do and it is a game bug.

--- Comment #18 from Rixa rixa@cs.tut.fi --- It is possible to remap the axes, either in wine (see my Comment 8) or the game itself. The latter is through a file in My Documents (I think it's your home directory in wine by default) at "Electronic Arts/Dead Space/joypad.txt". There is a joypad_example.txt there that may give a clue of how it's done.

Unfortunately this will still not yield a perfect configuration since it is not possible to assign button actions to the analogue triggers through either method, and it gets to be a bummer for Dead Space.

However, Dead Space also supports XInput. Wine doesn't, but I have had good results using the third party program x360ce, with this game and many others that do. All the controls work, and as an added bonus it has AntiDeadZone features that help undo some of the control weirdness of the PC port.

The setup program needs a bunch of dotnet winetricks to run, I don't even have the list of them all. They are only needed to build the configuration though, once it's ready you just drop it as x360ce.ini with the custom xinput1_3.dll to the game directory and that's it.

Well, for Dead Space you'll also want to make sure the joypad.txt (see the first paragraph) file is empty, or you will get surprising results. I think it's trying apply those in addition to what it's getting from XInput.

In general I think it would be really neat and make many newer games run so much smoother with a gamepad if wine just supported XInput out of the box, at least for the known microsoft controllers that pretty much define it.

--- Comment #19 from Rixa rixa@cs.tut.fi --- Created attachment 55427 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=55427 My x360ce configuration for Dead Space

For reference, the x360ce.ini that I used for Dead Space. I use pretty much the same file for every XInput game, but for this one I added some AntiDeadZone because the game has an excess of deadzone to begin with.

Apologies for this not being directly relevant to the bug, but it may be of interest to those who find it hoping to play Dead Space with a controller in wine.

I'm using the xbox one controller and the driver from Valve. May require customization for other controllers.

--- Comment #24 from Bruno Jesus 00cpxxx@gmail.com --- I see, there is a definition problem here. It is very unfortunate but 2 different technologies have the same name: - From X.org used to read events from devices; - From Microsoft used to read joystick input;

Sometimes they are spelled in all sort of ways: XInput, Xinput, xinput. Since we are talking about Wine and joysticks I'm referring to the MS library.

What you are seeing is that your joystick is handled in Linux using X.org Xinput.

When you test your joystick in Wine control panel that is Wine's implementation of DirectInput (dinput).

Wine does not implement MS XInput yet, which is why Dead Space is using DirectInput instead and then causing the failure.
