XBoxController

Using the Vortice.Windows nuget, see https://github.com/amerkoleci/Vortice.Windows for more examples.

For a working and more up-to-date demo, please see the XBoxController_Tests project here: https://github.com/tornseglare/XBoxController/tree/main/XBoxController_Tests

How to use

using Vortice.XInput;
using MASK;

// Starts a task which periodically look for newly connected controllers.
XBoxControllerPoller.StartPolling();

// Somewhere in your game/app:
if (XBoxControllerPoller.xBoxControllers.Count > 0)
{
  // Once a controller has been detected and added by the XBoxControllerPoller, it will always remain. 
  XBoxController controller = XBoxControllerPoller.xBoxControllers[0];
  
  if (controller.Connected)
  {
    if (controller.Update())
    {
      if (controller.JustPressedA)
      {
        // A button just got pressed.
      }
      
      if(controller.JustReleasedA)
      {
        // A button just got released.
      }

      if (controller.RightTrigger > Gamepad.TriggerThreshold)
      {
        // Using the Vortice.XInput functionality here.
        if (XInput.SetVibration(controller.UserIndex, 0.0f, controller.RightTrigger / 255.0f) == false)
        {
          Console.WriteLine("Device not connected!");
        }
      }
    }

    // Regardless of if Update() returns true or false you can always check the current state. 
    // (Not with the JustPressed/ReleasedXYZs though, these changes only when Update() has detected a change and returns true, naturally.)
    if(controller.A)
    {
      // The A button is pressed.
    }
  }
}


// Somewhere in your code during exiting the app you should terminate the polling task.
XBoxControllerPoller.StopPolling();

Use the connected/reconnected event

using Vortice.XInput;
using MASK;

// Somewhere in your setup.
XBoxControllerPoller.XBoxControllerEvent += XBoxControllerPoller_XBoxControllerEvent;
XBoxControllerPoller.StartPolling();

// Your event listener function.
void XBoxControllerPoller_XBoxControllerEvent(XBoxController xBoxController, XBoxControllerEventState state)
{
  if(state == XBoxControllerEventState.Connected)
  {
    Console.WriteLine($"Controller {xBoxController.UserIndex} connected!");
  }
  else if(state == XBoxControllerEventState.Reconnected)
  {
    Console.WriteLine($"Controller {xBoxController.UserIndex} reconnected!");
  }
  else if(state == XBoxControllerEventState.Disconnected)
  {
    // Player/User has disconnected the controller. Urge them to reconnect it.
    Console.WriteLine($"Controller {daController!.UserIndex} disconnected!");
  }	  
}
