Why we cannot use Joystick with DirectX project. Alternative ?

Input

I tried to use the joystick class with DirectX but it’s impossible. I know that possible with openGL but I really want to use the performance of DirectX. There is a solution ?

Explain your setup and the devices you are trying to configure and your code.

EDIT

Also:

Hi @NayGames and Welcome to the Forums.

I want to do a prototype flight simulator so I need to use flightstick with directX

There are many posts on that device, have you searched for them yet? I remember seeing one in the past 8 months.

Yeah but why this code work with GL project and not with window project:
JoystickState joystickState = Joystick.GetState(0);
if (joystickState.IsConnected)
system.Console.WriteLine("Connected");

Are you using 3.7 or 3.8DevB? try the other if not.

I use 3.7 I will try with prerealese3.8

I wish this forum had post footers, so I can point out I do not do OpenGL stuff.

I think DX supports a flight stick though… posted something on it recently.

Anyway, good luck.
