ddgo-pnp-controller's Issues

Add support for emulator mode (Dualshock 3)

The Dualshock 3 is autodetected and autoconfigured by many emulators (such as RetroArch). Thanks to this, it should be possible to simulate a classic controller and send input via a correct mapping, load a game in an emulator and pass as a classic controller without complicated configuration on the host side. This is already achieved by ddgo-converter.

Potential sub-modes:

• PlayStation mode
• Nintendo 64 mode
• Sega Saturn mode

Add support for door lamp and rumble

Currently, the PS2 modes are input only. Because the Plug & Play has a door lamp and one rumble motor, it would be interesting to allow controlling them via USB control requests, just like the original PS2 controllers.

There are several issues preventing this:

• The Android composite USB gadget only gets control requests if they are directed to the endpoint. This is the case for the PS2 Type 2 driver. However, the Shinkansen controller and MTC do not specify the endpoint and the request does not reach the USB gadget userspace.
• There seems to be a bug in the 3.4.113 kernel regarding control requests. The setup packet is received, but data never arrives and requests time out. According to the UDC, the error code is -22.

Add support for MTC P5/B7 cartridge

The MTC P5/B7 is currently not supported. Input code is ready, but the two supported games (Kyushu Shinkansen and Keisei Toei Keikyu) run extra checks on the controller and reject the controller with a "Please insert P5/B7 cartridge" message.

Full USB descriptor dumps are needed to check whether there is extra data passed in the descriptor or in the input data.
