Difficulty with X Box Control

 

@Eiffert : I am using  Aximmetry DE  2024.3.0  I have issues using an X Box  controller to control a scene. I have  followed all the tutorials and documents, but still no luck. I have  connected the X Box compound to  the Free Camera  compound and also the Camera Movers , still nothing. Interestingly though , it works perfectly in UE 5. Is there something I am overlooking ?


Thanks

Hi,

First, you should verify whether you're receiving any input from the Xbox controller. You can use the following setup to check this:

If all the values remain constantly at 0 in the previews, there might be an issue with the connection to Aximmetry. You should make sure that no other software is using the X-Box controller.
If the values change, the issue likely lies in how you have connected the XBox_Camera_Control to the camera. If possible, please share a screenshot of your Flow Editor logic, which will help us identify and resolve the problem.

Warmest regards,

@Eiffert: I was able to get the Free Camera and XCAM control with the Xbox. The problem was the I was mapped to the  wrong device. I had to set Device  to Controller Xbox One for Windows.  How do I set up the same for a Tracked Cam.  Thanks

@Eiffert: Thanks for coming back. I am using rhe Tracked Cam-8 compound. I have Xbox control on the 8 Vcams, having connected the Xbox Control to the associated Camera Mover. I  can't find  any  Camera  Mover associated with TRK input 9 to 16  though. Where is it located ?

Hi,

You mean you are using a Mixed Camera compound. If so, Mixed Cameras essentially consist of a Virtual Camera compound with an unlinked Tracked Camera compound inside it. The Tracked Camera compound is located here:
