XIM3 DeadZoner

Yup. It's a limitation of the API. Sorry .

Could you elaborate a bit on that? I took a look at the header and the XIMCommander.cpp file, so my best guess is that when you call XIMSendInput with a XIMControllerInput struct, the XIM3 will ignore the attached controller.

That's exactly it. The struct is initialized with all 0s, and these values overwrite values from the actual controller.

I see what you mean. That struct would need something like a bit mask to specifically tell the XIM3 which values to update and which ones to leave alone. There are some cases where this would be useful, but I guess that would be off topic.

The basic functionality of your app seems to work pretty well. It might be useful to save your progress though. Great job!

How do i get it to connect my controller? When i open up deadzoner is says no connection, i hit connect and nothing happens. I hit wizard and it says must me connected to xim3 so i enter pc mode and connect and stillllll tells me i need to connect. What gives?

Plug your controller into xim3
Plug your xim3 into your xbox
Plug your Belkin Easy Transfer Cable into your pc
Run deadzoner

I try running the DeadZoner and get an error report, it doesn't run, just crashes for some reason.
