Thread: Space Navigator PE GlovePIE script

To keep from polluting the Space nav driver developmen thread with my glovepie scripting, i decided to make my own thread..

If you want to get your Space nav working as something that sends key commands, follow the directions here http://blog.ifallacy.com/ to get PPjoy and GlovePIE installed. Then load up my attached script in glovepie below..

Since i use roadrunner, here are some snippets from my ini file's to get it working with the mp3 player..

execTBL.ini:

Code:

"SN_RT","RRNEXT"
"SN_LT","RRPREV"
"SN_UP","VOL+"
"SN_DN","VOL-"
"SN_1","PLAY"

and keyTBL:

Code:

6038,"SN_UP"
6040,"SN_DN"
6037,"SN_LT"
6039,"SN_RT"
6049,"SN_1"

For those of you not using RR, the keymappings are ctrl + alt + (numer 1, and the four directional arrow keys)

Edit your files accordingly, and then load up my script in GlovePIE and have some fun

as it is, press down on the hat to play/pause (ctrl + alt + 1)
tilt left and right to skip forewards/backwards through songs (ctrl + alt + (left/right arrow))
tilt up and down to toggle through the list, just liek you were pressing the up and down arrow keys..
