I have the SpaceMouse compact. I've been messing with the different XML files for days now and haven't found what I need.
as I understand, there can be a few button banks and axis banks for each app,
and I'm talking about a game, not an app that has a pre-defined configuration.
I am trying to understand how to create the different axis banks and how to switch between them.
i started testing on button banks.
my plan is to switch between 2 button banks with the right button of the SpaceMouse. either by holding, clicking or the radial menu.
one axis bank will be used as a regular mouse and the other will also be used as a mouse but with different modifiers with every axis movement.
The goal is to make the SpaceMouse work differently in different parts of the game.
on an old post i saw how it's suppossed to be done. so i made 2 different button banks with 2 different IDs.
i made a button action with the "GoTo" action and the rest of the parameters for the switch.
I configured my right SpaceMouse button to trigger the switch.
In the game, when I trigger the button bank switch, the XML file is being edited, and the only change is this line:
<CurrentButtonBank>Default</CurrentButtonBank>
turns into this:
<CurrentButtonBank></CurrentButtonBank>
And the button bank is never changed to the second one.
this is the part of my code that handles the bank switch:
Code: Select all
<ButtonActions>
<ButtonAction Type="ButtonBank">
<ID>ButtonBank_GoTo_Default</ID>
<Name>Default BB</Name>
<Action>GoTo</Action>
<ButtonBankID>Default</ButtonBankID>
</ButtonAction>
<ButtonAction Type="ButtonBank">
<ID>ButtonBank_GoTo_Map</ID>
<Name>Map BB</Name>
<Action>GoTo</Action>
<ButtonBankID>Map</ButtonBankID>
</ButtonAction>
</ButtonActions>
<Devices>
<Device>
<ID>ID_ProductID_C635</ID>
<CurrentButtonBank></CurrentButtonBank>
<ButtonBank Default="true">
<Name>Default</Name>
<ID>Default</ID>
