Ps1 controller with analog
PS1 CONTROLLER WITH ANALOG HOW TO
If the ID was unknown, the game would just not work with that controller, since it wouldn't know how to interpret the data either. That's why games like WipeOut that predate the Analogue Controller / Dual Shock, don't support it, but support Namco's NegCon for example. Same from up to down (and multiply those to understand how many positions in total were).Įach controller type, had an ID, (0x41=PSX Original, 0x23=Namco NegCon, 0x73=Analogue/DualShock Red LED, 0x53=Analogue Green LED/Joystick) they would send so the game would know how to interpret the data. That meant from left to right, each analogue stick had 256 positions. Each analogue took up 2 bytes for X and Y axis.
PS1 CONTROLLER WITH ANALOG FULL
The dualshock, used 6 bytes, it used the 2 unused bits to fill in for the 元 and R3 analogue in clicks, and the 4 extra bytes was for the analogue movement, with 1 full byte accounting for 1 axis.
The digital controller used 2 bytes in total (=16 bits) because there are only 14 buttons in the original psx controller and they could be only on or off (so 2 bits go unused). In a digital controller, one button will be 1 bit. So, what they do is, they send 8 bits (each bit can either be on/off, so it's ideal for transmitting button states) of information each time (8 bits = 1 byte, they always send a full byte), and repeat as many times as necessary. The data of button presses, go over one single pin, pin 1, the other pins are used for power, to sync data, etc. The controller uses 9 pins, although 2 go unused. They did plan for different controllers/inputs, but mostly to account for lightguns and joysticks (which, again, used wildly different data). You have to keep in mind the analogue sticks had not been planned ahead of time.
The first PSX games weren't programmed to account for the analogue input and the extra data would just mess with the game in unpredictable ways, because each time the PSX tried to read the controller data, the controller sent 6 bytes of data, instead of 2 bytes.
