DIY USB- Win7 - G25- PS4 Not Working.

[wh33lie]

Hi there,

I am having the same problems as discussed in this thread before. I browsed also for other solutions but still no change: "Joystick not found: Logitech G25 Reacing Wheel USB (0)"

I followed all tutorials with the hardware and am quite sure that there is no mistake.
Setup:
- G25 wheel on laptop (works fine in Windows 7 64 bit - all drivers installed. Test on the LGS recognises every button on the wheel.
- PS4 controller (off) on laptop
- Teensy 2.0++ with GIMX 5.9 x86_64 - at90usb1286.hex, between laptop and PS4.
- using the LogitechG25_G29.xml

Here is the log:

Code: Select all

global option -l with value `log.txt'
global option -c with value `LogitechG25_G29.xml'
controller #1: option -p with value `COM4'
now reading arguments for controller #2
status flag is set
subpos flag is set
force_updates flag is set
GIMX 5.9 x86_64
Windows 7 SP1 x64
Kernel version: 6.1 (7601)
native mode is already enabled for HID device \\?\hid#vid_046d&pid_c299#6&1cba642b&1&0000#{4d1e55b2-f16f-11cf-88cb-001111000030} (PID=c299)
ReadFile failed: timeout expired.
can't read packet header
No controller detected.
adapter_detect failed

I feel that I am not far off...even more frustrating.
Thank you!

Try the LogitechG25_G29_W10.xml config.

Timeouts generally happen due to a wrong wiring, or bad USB cables.
Please post a clear picture of your wiring.

I tried LogitechG25_G29_W10.xml config. This brought me one step further. Check says "This config seems OK".
However, when starting I still have the same problem.
Here is the log and pictures from the setup.
Thanks

Wiring is incorrect. Swap TXD and RXD.

[wh33lie]

Swapped TXD and RXD

Still same problem and log text

[wh33lie]

@Matlo: My Teensy 2.0++ has loose pins which easily fall out of their slots if not fixed. That's also why I taped them. Do I need to solder them to make it work or is loose plugging sufficient?
Thanks

[Matlo]

Yes it cannot work without soldered pins or wires.

[wh33lie]

OK, now I soldered the pins.
Again, one step further.
However, I get the following log:

Thank you

[wh33lie]

In the directory of C:\Users\...\AppData\Roaming\gimx
I only have the two folder "config" and "log".
Any idea how to make the macros accessible for gimx?
Thank you

[Matlo]

Just create it.
