[Q] MOGA support - Shield Q&A

Hi guys, today I am having a small question about some games. Games like NFS Most Wanted, have moga controller support, but we can't use our controller with them, only a BT moga. Are any way to enable our controller to be recognized as a moga and allow us to play this games with native controller support? Thx for the info

It can simulate other game supported controllers.
Naturally it does not work in the case Moga Pivot needs to be running as is the case for some games.
In any case Moga makes very nice controllers.

If anyone knows the moga controller keylayout it might help someone figure this out.

It's possible to make it work with moga pivot? Or we need to hack the pivot app?

I'm not going to hack the Pivot app.
If you want your favorite moga only game to be supported by other controllers I would suggest contacting the game authors. They just need to target a very widespread controller like the xbox or ps3 one.

If people need to ask EA to add shield support to anything the people asking will have a higher chance of winning the lottery without buying a ticket then EA adding support.

I'm sure that if they see a profit in doing so they will include controller support. It is not that difficult to do.
Besides, you can always do touchscreen mapping.

Hmm I see an edit....
EA games has been responsible for many games that had promise but they were released very buggy, and rarely got patches to fix the problems.
That last game I bought from EA was NFS Most Wanted (2005) Black Edition (That game was lucky to even get all the features EA promised for it.
My previous statement about EA Games is based on my (and friends) experience dealing with EA Games.
And it is not just me and my friends that think EA is bad, read

Touchscreen Mapping does not cut it for games like NFS Most Wanted. Sure you can map the steering, but what about brake and gas?

NFS MW has also Xperia Play support, so you can use Gamekeyboard to configure your gamepad as Xperia Play (there is also predefined profile for it).

Gaming

So yesterday I downloaded Nesoid and a handful of ROMs for my Captivate. I had some fun playing them, but using the on screen virtual keyboard was really hard and it covered most of the gaming action. So I see that the new psx4droid supports wiimote. So I emailed the developer of Nesoid and suggested that he add that capability to his too and that other than that its a great emulator. He emailed back and this is his response
You can use other apps on the Market. But please enable input method in Nesoid settings.
Click to expand...

What does this actually mean? Is there another app that I have to download and install first to get the wiimote to connect to my phone via bluetooth?
I dont have a wiimote yet, and before I go buy one, I'd like to know exactly how it works, if it will.
Search for "Wiimote controller" on the market, should work.
You can use a few bluetooth gamepads with android. One being
MSI Bluetooth Gamepad (BGP-100) which is a weird kinda swivel thing. I am going to gut a SNES controller and put the BGP-100 into it. It has been done before and everything seems to fit fine.
There is also another bluetooth controller made for blackberry's that works with android. It is vertical gamepad with a trigger control. Seems pretty nice.
I think you have to buy a market app to get the drivers to make the above 2 gamepads work.
Also as mentioned you can use a wiiremote as a gamepad for android. I have been looking for a wii classic controller + wii combo, so it does not have to be tethered to a normal wii controller to work. I want small and portable bluetooth with a dfecent amount of buttons that is why I am going with the SNES form factor.

Free, although it does say there isn't galaxy s support....so it might not work.
wiimotes currently do not work on the SGS phones because of the bt3.0. not sure on the other BT controllers
Are there any controllers that can be plugged in? Just wondering for flights...
Well I emailed the developer of Wiimote Controller and asked if they could update to support Galaxy S phones. This is there response:
Hello,
thank you for your feedback.
I don't think this will be possible with the current way Samsung's software is handling bluetooth.
Best regards,
Piki

Doesnt sound good for us getting to use a wiimote as a gamepad
Trying to play Nesoid with onscreen vitrual controller sucks, its too hard and I'm afraid of breaking my phone. Every time I get into the game and start tapping A or B rapidly I can feel it flex and creak in my hands.
Just wondering in anybody has made progress on getting a bluetooth controller for the captivate/galaxy s?
Ive been looking into it...and came to a bunch of dead ends aswell :sigh:
Sent from my Vibrant using XDA Ap
Please let me know if anyone finds a controller that works.
Thank you,

Speaking of games...
I wasn't able to find any in the market but I'm rooted so I know I can find games from other sources.
Are there any games like Alone in the Dark (horror genre) or fantasy role playing that would have the same type of graphics you'd see in WoW that I can put on my Captivate?

ShadowGun + Xbox Controller

Anyone else has tried the new ShadowGun game with XBox controller? I just tried, and it works flawlessly. You can re-mapped the button from the GamePad settings in the game to configure your own buttons preferences. The game is fun, smooth graphics, with the xbox controller it feels like having a portable console. Keep more games like this coming!
Share with you guys my short video:
Ok, now that's really awesome. Just installed it and now I've got to get the controller.
My charactor keeps pulling to the left when i connect my xbox controller, o ky way to play is on the tab itself' strange
Yep yep. First thing I did, didn't even try to play using the touch screen lol.

you are using a wired controller is it also working with wireless xbox controller for pc?
More controller supported games
Hi, if you are looking for more games to play with your gamepad, try these:
1) Cordy
2) Reckless getaway
3) Reckless racing
All of the games above doesn't allow button re-mapping, but they are still playable. Enjoy!
Anyone tried with the wireless xbox controller?
I cant even get the whole game to work properly. There is no gun on my character, all shells that fly out from that invisible gun are purple boxes and all enemies are invisible. I thought this would be wider problem with tegra2 devices but clearly it is working for some.
I have send email about this to the developer. Hopefully I get a solution to this at some point.

apparently there was an update release on the market for the game stating that the character with no gun bug has been fixed. I haven't experienced that problem myself and havent updated. Hope this helps.

I had the same problem. After uninstalling then re-installing the game, it was fixed.
I have it and have played the first 3 levels using a PlayStation3 SixAxis controller plugged in via USB, its working perfectly, its awesome.
Indeed working great:

Why wired?
The PS3 SixAxis controller will work wirelessly. I bought a white one specifically to use with my Transformer for games.
G2x - 2.3.7 CM7

Yeah, with the sixaxis app the analog joysticks pull too much after you stop moving them.
On the other hand, USB works flawlessly.

The Xbox 360 controllers are not Bluetooth like the PS3 controllers, so they will not work wirelessly. There is a thread about getting the PS3 controller to work via bluetooth

You can use a wireless controller, but you need the Wireless Gaming Receiver in order to do it. The WGR is for hooking up a wireless xbox controller to a PC, but it works on the Transformer as well.

The thing about that is its a bug in the 1.02 shadowgun update. On 1.0 sixaxis worked flawlessly, but when i beat the game i wanted to play individual levels so i had to backup data, update(uninstall/reinstall) and restore data. On 1.02 i noticed the joysticks pulling. Hopefully they fix it in an update.

Use Controller with Android Games?

Is it possible to either an Xbox360 or PS3 controller with Android Games such as Sprinkle, Angry Birds, Dungeon Defenders, T-Racer, etc...?
I'm also getting mixed info on whether or not its possible to use PS3 and Xbox360 controllers Wirelessly?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
not sure about those games but i use a wii remote for all my emulator games.
The game/application must explicitly support it. The only ones I know of that do right now are the emulators, Riptide, and the new Shadowgun(awesome btw).
I think you can use the XBOX 360 controller wirelessly with the USB dongle, which kinda defeats the purpose. No clue about PS3
Thanks, that's what I figured.
You can use the ps³ controller wirelessly with an app called sixaxis. Works amazing on shadowgun and emulators. Im sure itd also work with riptide but i dont have that game.
Thanks! I'll try it out.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
The PS3 SixAxis app does the same thing as the WiiMote app. It binds the buttons to letters... which can be MAPPED in Emulators and games that support button bindings.
So Wireless gameplay on native android apps is probably a no go (except ShadowRun since it supports button bindings).
WIRED gameplay is totally different. Android supports WIRED controllers out of the box since 3.1 or 3.2... This should work... to some extent. Your using a controller for a game which requires touch input... may not work well. YMMV!

which driver do you use? I used RWiimote back in the day with my G2 without issue, but it immediately force closes on the transformer.
I got sixaxis working great last night, but it slugs the game down pretty bad. But at the time I was just rooted with bone stock otherwise, I'm in the process of flashing a custom rom, hopefully runs better with CPU tweaks. The only issue I was having with emulators was that I had to specifically select "Use Input Method" in SNES Emu, and I think N64 the option is called Use IME.

[APP] OnLive 1.3 Patched For All Controllers

The OnLive app comes with a very limited list of allowed controllers including their controller and the Xbox 360 wired one. I've smali hacked the current v1.3 APK to theoretically allow any Android (ICS and later) natively supported controller. I've successfully tested it with a PS3 Dual Shock 3 controller over Bluetooth with the Sixaxis Controller app.
You'll need to uninstall your old OnLive app before installing this one.

Wow! That's cool. Many thanks for your efforts. I have OnLive on the Kindle Fire HD and was concerned about buying a third party bluetooth controller like phonejoy but this should help out in the event that the OnLive app doesn't like it.

It's been so long I can't remember if I even had the analogues working. I quit using it b/c the first MOGA controller only had 1 set of L/R triggers and they were mapped to the wrong set. I think every single game I tried was unplayable w/o that right trigger and I couldn't find a way to re-map it.
I hope it works on the NVidia shield.

[Q] A question about multiplayer using two controllers

Hey guys, I have a quick question. The tablet is supposed to connect to up to four controllers. I bought two to play 2-players games from the GRID. I tried Street Fighter Tekken but the tablet sees both controllers as one. They both control player 1 only and there is no player 2 at all.
Does anyone know if there is a fix for that or perhaps something that I can do?
Also, are there any good games whether Android or GRID that I can play with two controllers?
Any answer would be much appreciated, thanks...

Have you tried BombSquad (Android)?
From what I've read in the nvidia forums, the multi-controller support only works with Android native games (i.e. no Gamestream or Grid support).
Sent from my SHIELD Tablet using XDA Free mobile app
Trine 2 that comes with the tablet support multiple controls. Beach buggy racing works great for local multiplayer. Supports up to 4 players. You need an in-game purchase to enable that though but it is totally worth it.
There should be a few more native Android games that support local multiplayer such as Gun Slugs by Orange Pixel (have not tried it yet)...
Most emulators support multiple controls as well. Such as Mupen64 Plus AE (the only one I have tried so far).
Guerilla Bob THD should also work according to game description on Google Play.
