Joystick input Problem
Hi. I have a problem with using Joystick in Unity.
Input.GetAxis() works perfectly with Keyboard input, but when i plug in a joystick, and Unity picks it up, it returns incorrect values:
When centered the Horizontal value returns -1 when it is supposed to return 0.
When I move the axis to the right it goes from -1 to 1.
when I move the axis to the left it JUMPS to 1. (supposed to go from 0 to -1)
I use this code to test it:
var Horizon : float;
var Vertica : float;
function OnGUI () {
GUI.HorizontalSlider(Rect(50,20,200,25),Horizon,-1,1);
GUI.VerticalSlider(Rect(20,50,25,200),Vertica,1,-1);
}
function Update () {
Horizon = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
Vertica = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
}
Both my joysticks work correctly in other games, but fails to do so in unity.
You have the sensitivity set too high. It defaults to 1000 - open up the input settings and change it to 1.0 for each of your joystick axes.
Hi, I have not worked with joystick inputs since this question.
I have found something interesting though.
When I used a xbox remote. It all works fine.
I assume different controllers work differently with unity's input system.
I'm having the same issue with my Thrustmaster Top Gun Afterburner stick and throttle. I wrote a VB.NET program to test getting the imputs directly and all the numbers are correct. I translated that program to C# and put it in a unity script and it returns 0 (zero) for all impute.
Note: It requires winmm.dll to work and I put a copy of that in the plugins folder.
I think Unity's connections to the windows joystick drivers has a bug in it based on the fact that all other games and programs do not experience this issue with the inputs being screwed up.

Hey there!
Did you solve the bug with your controller? I'm having a similar issue as Dazdingo, but I cannot replace my controller, because I have to work with it for my bachelor thesis...
