New hardware plugins

[BBF_DT]

Ron,

I'm wondering if you did any progresss on the joystick input plugin. I really need one and if you didn't start already I'll probaly build one. I'm a perl/php/vb programer and have few skills in C, but I'll learn it now. If you could help me I'll love it

Also, has anyone heard about any type o RF remote control ? IR is cool but RF is better. I could control my stereo from anywhere on the house Is there are any eletrical engineer that wants to help ?

No I didn't start on the joystick plugin.
I'd be glad to help.

Ron,

Well I'll start learning C then I just got the DX SDK from where I'll probaly leech the joystick capture information. Now I wonder how the DLL works ... I need more info on that. When is the DLL called and what should it return (when) ?

[Ron]

BBF,

There is a developers package on my
homepage download that it contains
a desciption and example drivers.

Are you sure you want to start with
DX ;-) thats not the easiest part to
start.

Regards,
Ron

Ron,

Well, I can use the winmm.dll API that I used once in VB, but I'm to limited with it. I'll try to understand the dll scheme first then advance
BTW, do you use ICQ ?
If so, contact me in it. My UIN is 2041398 but you already know that because of the forum LOL
