I'm not a gamer, so I don't know an Xbox from a PS3. However, I do know that I'd prefer to have a tactile way to interact with the DCS app. I currently have the app on Android tablets.
A year or two ago, there were posts on the forum about attempts to use an inexpensive gaming controller and map it to the DCS app. I bought a controller and tried that; however, the mapping apps that I found all wanted to take control of the root directory on my tablet. Given the sketchy reviews for those apps, I wasn't going to allow that, so the controller got returned. I think that @H1000 was working on it but put his attempts on the back burner.
I've watched several YouTube videos about using a game controller with a tablet, but all of the ones I've seen are focused on how to make the Bluetooth connection (even I can figure that out!) and they assume that the game one wants to play has already been coded to support a controller.
1. Has anyone successfully used a gaming controller with the DCS app? If so, which controller and mapping app did you use?
2. Has anyone found a mapping app that is reputable and/or does not want to take control of the root directory?
3. I know I'm dreaming, but is there any hope that MTH will code the DCS app so that it supports a gaming controller?
Thanks in advance. Please don't turn this into a thread about how MTH should produce more remotes and allow them to work wirelessly with the new WTIU - it doesn't sound like that's ever going to happen, so complaining about it will just get the thread closed.
