[QUOTE=SgtdawnPCFTW;24435840]Dude, i posted them a minute ago! there 2 posts above your post![/QUOTE]

They were the [B]XBOX Controller[/B] commands not the [B]XBOX Module[/B] commands.

[QUOTE=Wolfo;24420200]Weird, are you sure you aren't doing right and left, up and down at the same moment?[/QUOTE]

I'm sure.

[adorablepuppy]

Want this.

[QUOTE=Wolfo;24433852]Shouldn't be hard :v:[/QUOTE]
You appear to be struggling, let me help you out. You should re-read the documentation after reading this code.

[lua]
if (CLIENT) then
error("The implementer of this script didn't read the documentation.")
end

// Example registering controls
local splitscreenJcon = {}

local splitscreenJoystickInit = function()
splitscreenJcon.movex = jcon.register{
uid = "spsc_movex",
type = "analog",
description = "Move left/right",
category = "Splitscreen",
max = 1,
min = -1,
}

splitscreenJcon.movey = jcon.register{
uid = "spsc_movey",
type = "analog",
description = "Move forward/back",
category = "Splitscreen",
max = 1,
min = -1,
}

splitscreenJcon.speed = jcon.register{

}

splitscreenJcon.walk = jcon.register{

Wouldn't it be easier to make an SNPC for the other players rather than using a box?

[Grea$eMonkey]

You could replace the player entity altogether, and then overwrite any important functions that deal with detecting the player object.

[Wolfo]

I was actually thinking of making an NPC-Entity instead of a SNPC since I've never scripted an NPC before and when I tried to make one move it came out as a pain in the ass.

Also thanks Night-Eagle for all his support for this script, testing your code right now, if it works like I thought, it means I finally understood how it works.

What's more, if I figure out some bot commands(Not the simple ones by console), I may put a bot right where the second player is and make it shoot or move on command. It could work.

[tab]Doesn't look[/tab][tab]like working[/tab]
I tried modifying the movey bit into this
[lua] local val = joystick.Get(pl,"spsc_movey")
if (val == 0 or !val) then
//Issue command to stay put
else
pl:ChatPrint("MoveY Works")
end [/lua]
to check if it worked and nothing happened.. what am I doing wrong? I've read the documentation a couple of times...

[QUOTE=adorablepuppy;24452611]Want this.[/QUOTE]

Download it.
It's on the OP :hurr:

[adorablepuppy]

[QUOTE=gk99;24472600]Download it.

Yeah, I saw that, thanks. Didn't download, as it's not mature yet.

You did bind an input to spsc_movey, right?
Aside from that, put a message for the other condition to check the error code.

[lua]local val, err = joystick.Get(pl,"spsc_movey")
if (val == 0 or !val) then
pl:ChatPrint("MoveY Zero: "..tostring(val).." : "..tostring(err))
else
pl:ChatPrint("MoveY Works")
end[/lua]

[Kung Fu Jew]

You should add support for dual monitors, and dual monitor setups with separate resolutions.

Yeah, I used the default spsc_movey you posted. Using that debug code, it still won't work: [B]MoveY Zero: nil : 1[/B]
Yet, if I open the [I]joyconfig[/I] menu, it recognizes the joystick.

[Wolfo]

Bump, any ideas? I'm doing everything right... what am I missing?

[Kingzy]

lol .. you don't sign..

[SgtdawnPCFTW]

Devil: Sign the Contract...............

PS: Plz do, i want this!

[Korro Bravin]

You sir win a gold star! Now I do not have to buy gmod again to play with family =D
Oh, and any news on getting the spawn menu and P2 player working?

[Wolfo]

I'm still working on the P2 Menu, but I need to fix the Controller issue first.

[raven119]

Gmod for xbox hahaha.

[zenby]

4-Player Gmod? Impossible!

[SgtdawnPCFTW]

...... untill NOW!

[Wolfo]

[QUOTE=ZenX2;24607318]4-Player Gmod? Impossible![/QUOTE]

Maybe not 4 Players *sniff*, but trust me, it is possible to make it two players.

[Alexis-nyan]

[QUOTE=VeryNiceGuy;24391913]Will this work for dual monitors?[/QUOTE]

shut up about dual cocks in your mouth

[Wolfo]

Just sent a PM to Night-Eagle, hoping he'll respond soon.

I've never been on 4chan, and I will never go.
Thanks Opera for the fast Show-Site while hovering the mouse on a hot-link.

I don't know how Opera works, but I have a feeling when you hover over a link it visits that page anyway in order to generate the thumbnail.

[ColdFusion]

We could ask garry nicely to enable the SS commands? or maybe you can access them using gm_cvar2

[Wolfo]

Night-Eagle hasn't answered yet...
