Shannon Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I was messing around with the SDL compile of mame under blue dog linux and while attempting to assign the d-pad to the directional controls I noticed that it seemed to be recording how hard I pressed down on the d-pad. If you just tap the d-pad it took it as a button, but if you held it down harder then it would record it as an axis input. Interesting..... I just don't remember reading any mention of it. Actually maybe I did and just didn't think anything of it at the time. I know the normal buttons are supposed to be pressure sensitive.

xenomorpher Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Yeah and the PS2 controller's D-Pads are the same. You lightly press it to sneak in Metal Gear Solid 2 and press hard to run. The PSP however does not have pressure sensitive buttons, but it does need another analog stick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shannon Posted January 12, 2007 Author Share Posted January 12, 2007 Oh ok I thought only the buttons were pressure sensitive on the PS2. Goes to show how much I pay attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
