      @mitu thank you! I'll take a look later, I'm also certain changing up the script is possible so I can add another analog stick input

        @obmai89 Do you think it is possible to use the pins 3 and 5 (I2C1) instead of having to reconnect them to the 2 middle pins? Is there any difference between I2C1 and I2C?

          No idea to be honest.

            @mitu Alright, I'll just connect it to the middle i2c pins. Dude thank you so so so much for actually answering my post, this is what I was looking for and this is basically the last step to finishing my project. THANK YOU!

              @mitu Hey again, I followed all instructions and ran the script. When running it I get the error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'uinput'

              This shouldn't happen, as I did pip3 install python-uinput just like the github page said.

                Are you running the script with python3 <scriptname> ?

                  Traceback (most recent call last):
                  File "gpio_js_driver_super_game_pi.py", line 21, in <module>
                  adc = ADS1x15(i2c=ADS1115)
                  TypeError: 'module' object is not callable

                      @mitu Ah sorry mate, I am new to this forum and I keep on sending messages before finishing them up, hence the reason for the edit and the deleted message...

                        @mitu Here I am again, after managing to remove all module not found errors (for now) I get this new one:

                        Traceback (most recent call last):
                        File "gpio_js_driver_super_game_pi.py", line 21, in <module>
                        adc = ADS1x15(ic=ADS1115)
                        TypeError: 'module' object is not callable

                        this is what I get after doing sudo python3 <script>.

                        edit: Apologies for the messy convo so far, as I said I am new to this forums and still getting the hang of it :). Hope I didn't give a bad impression.

                          @obmai89 Not sure where the error comes from - but didn't you already have code that was working already ? Replace the analog sticks handling in the sample script I linked with your code and re-use just the button part for emitting gamepad button events.

                            @mitu Hey, I managed to fix it. I do get another issue now though,
                            AttributeError: 'ADS1115' object has no attribute 'readADCSingleEnded'

                            Got any ideas how to fix it?
