Re: How To: Xbox Controller Vibration

This is pretty cool. I believe, and Greg please jump in if I am wrong... only labview teams can use this kind of solution. If c++ and java teams could use xinput there is not anything that I have seen to do so in short of having to write our own application (e.g. make a wedge proxy to the dashboard with its own networking solution). IIRC I believe direct input had some preliminary functionality for that for rumble, but I have never tested using that so it is hard to say... The driver station uses direct input, but the c++ and java interface is limited to certain controls because all the controls and submitted in a packet and it is packed tight, so I am somewhat surprised that labview is not subjected to the same functionality.
