pcsx rearmed/ wireless 360 controller vibration

we1dont7die

Anyone know how to disable the rumble feature in this core? The vibration drives me nuts because it is not hitting at the right time and it gets stuck on a lot. It practically makes the games unplayable (Tony Hawk 1, Metal Gear Solid, CTR). Please help.

Edit: forgot to mention I have a pi3B and the latest retropie image.

Disable in the game options.

You so smart! No wonder I couldn't find anyone else who was having this problem. I went about it all wrong. Now, is it safe to assume that EVERY game with vibration support also has the option to disable it?

lostless

It should.

@lostless, @we1dont7die

I wouldn't count on that. The option is mostly universal on modern systems because the controllers are wireless and force feedback can drain a battery. In the early days of rumble and wired controllers, I wouldn't be surprised if there are several games without the ability to disable the effect.

Question...it's not just me that's experiencing crappy vibration support in pcsx, right?

I use lr-pcsx-rearmed and currently, 'Spyro the Dragon' is the only game I have that supports force feedback and I haven't played it enough to notice.

@we1dont7die I think I may have experienced that problem with a 360 controller, but with my mayflash to ps3 adaptor that emulates a 360 controller, it vibrates perfectly fine. (so far) albeit a tad weak

@dankcushions Not the same issue. I don't experience any lag in the game. The controller simply starts vibrating and doesn't stop for a long time, so long to where my hands start to hurt and i can't play anymore.

@we1dont7die i know this topic is quite old, but it seems that the same your problem i've solved by adding "dwc_otg.speed = 1" (without quotes) at the end of /boot/cmdline.txt (for now I tested it on a few games and it seems to work)

Old topic, but relevant as i am trying to set up 360 controllers and having the same issue. The command line looks interesting, but does anyone know what else it might do? Anyone tried this? Thanks

@TMNTturtlguy
dwc_otg.speed -> 1 will limit USB speed to full speed 12Mbps (USB 1.1)

but does anyone know what else it might do? Anyone tried this?

I would assume it would make reading/accessing USB flash drives and external HDDs slower?
I've tried it before but I didn't notice any issues with it. I currently don't have this enabled but then again, I'm not playing many PSX games on my RPi.

Did you try?

nano /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-core-options.cfg

and editing:

pcsx_rearmed_vibration = "enabled"

to

pcsx_rearmed_vibration = "disabled"
