There is a strange problem with mouse sensitivity, if you aim close to a object (like down at the floor) the sensitivity is really low but if you aim at something far away (like a door at the end of a long corridor) the sensitivity becomes really high. You can define new combos if you like using this reference.I first played Dead Space on PS3 and didn't have any problems with it but when I got it for PC on steam, it was unplayable. The shortcut buttons are sent from these 2 functions. int calSamples = 300 int sensivity = 8 int magRange = 3 int outRange = 127 // Max allowed in HID report float xyThreshold = 0.4 // Center threshold The 'dead zone' or center position is represented by xyThreshold you can adjust this for tighter tolerances to your preference. You can move the knob to the extremities take a look at the x and y values printed on serial console and adjust the ceiling value for magRange. Incase it's reversed you can invert the values in the code if you don't want to open it and flip the sensor.ĭepending on how centred the knob in your build and how the everything fits together, you might need to adjust the magRange and sensitivity values. You can test the knob to see if it moves the mouse cursor and if it's in the right orientation. Once the board flashed successfully you can unplug, open the serial console and plug it back in.īy default the code prints out to the console x,y,z after initialization. You can read more on how to do that here. In order for the sketch to compile you will also need to change the USB stack to from Arduino to TinyUSB.

Once the board is working properly you can open the Arduino sketch located here and install the required libraries in your environment. You can follow this guide if you never done this before.

I may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you.įirst thing is to get the Adafruit QT Py RP2040 working in the Arduino IDE.
