Strange error with vJoy

Post by Keling »

Hi, first time here. I've been using FreePIE for quite some time and generally really happy with it. But recently there's a strange error with vJoy I can't get around.


When I send a value to any analog axis but X/Y of vJoy[0], I get a error like this:

Code: Select all

Axis HID_USAGE_Z not enabled, enabled it from VJoy config
The vJoy device does have all the analog axes enabled.

The vJoy + FreePIE setup I installed used to work just fine (Win 8.1 64bit, don't remember FreePIE version). The first time I got this error (in this August, but I haven't been gaming much recently so the cause could have appeared earlier) both vJoy and FreePIE were never updated nor reconfigured. So this issue may have something to do with recent Windows updates. I've tried to update both to the latest version and the error stays the same. X/Y of vJoy[0] still work as before. I've also noticed that the value range of each analog axis has shifted from (-Int16.MaxValue*0.5 ~ Int16.MaxValue*0.5) to (0 ~ Int16.MaxValue), so my old scripts now result in half effective range and half deadzone.

I'm getting at least one report of similar error on another machine.


The demo feeder program of vJoy is working without error.


Is this a known issue? What can I do for now?

That is strange, will have to investigate, are you using the new version of vJoy driver btw?
They have upgraded it recently, The fix is in github but not released.

Try replaing the dll in freepie with this one

Great. This DLL fixed it. :D

I'm using vJoy's latest release version, vJoy_204_I080714.
