sharpdx - How to use xbox one controller in C# application -

-

there exists large amount of information using xbox 360 controller in c#, didn't find info xbox 1 controller.

i need basic operation out of it, joystick , trigger values.

the majority of information online c++ applications, rather attempting write custom library, i'd use sharpdx. how use in application?

note: i'm posting share info found, documenting findings myself. i'd love hear other methods of getting controller input .net application though.

the easiest way found started use sharpdx. sharpdx website:

sharpdx open-source managed .net wrapper of directx api.

sharpdx available on nuget, it's simple started inside visual studios.

to started, go tools -> nuget package manager -> package manager console inside visual studios (i'm using 2015 community edition).

adding sharpdx package manager inside vs2015

then type: install-package sharpdx package manager console appears @ bottom of visual studios.

install sharpdx

visual studios download , add solution. onto code.

since wanted input xbox controller, need add:
using sharpdx.xinput top of our program.

and code values simple:

class xinputcontroller {     controller controller;     gamepad gamepad;     public bool connected = false;     public int deadband = 2500;     public point leftthumb, rightthumb = new point(0,0);     public float lefttrigger, righttrigger;      public xinputcontroller()     {         controller = new controller(userindex.one);         connected = controller.isconnected;     }      // call method update class values     public void update()     {         if(!connected)              return;          gamepad = controller.getstate().gamepad;          leftthumb.x  = (math.abs((float)gamepad.leftthumbx ) < deadband) ?  0 : (float)gamepad.leftthumbx  / short.minvalue * -100;         leftthumb.y  = (math.abs((float)gamepad.leftthumby ) < deadband) ?  0 : (float)gamepad.leftthumby  / short.maxvalue * 100;         rightthumb.y = (math.abs((float)gamepad.rightthumbx) < deadband) ?  0 : (float)gamepad.rightthumbx / short.maxvalue * 100;         rightthumb.x = (math.abs((float)gamepad.rightthumby) < deadband) ?  0 : (float)gamepad.rightthumby / short.maxvalue * 100;          lefttrigger  = gamepad.lefttrigger;         righttrigger =  gamepad.righttrigger;     } }

this creates deadband because joysticks on controller never return zero. inverts left x axis both stick inputs match. y positive up, x positive right:

leftthumb.x  = (math.abs((float)gamepad.leftthumbx ) < deadband) ?  0 : (float)gamepad.leftthumbx  / short.minvalue * -100; leftthumb.y  = (math.abs((float)gamepad.leftthumby ) < deadband) ?  0 : (float)gamepad.leftthumby  / short.maxvalue * 100; rightthumb.y = (math.abs((float)gamepad.rightthumbx) < deadband) ?  0 : (float)gamepad.rightthumbx / short.maxvalue * 100; rightthumb.x = (math.abs((float)gamepad.rightthumby) < deadband) ?  0 : (float)gamepad.rightthumby / short.maxvalue * 100;

hopefully helpful in future looking add xbox 1 controller input .net application!
