ABOUT THIS PROJECT
Mikko Monone wrote the original controller program for the PSP and the server for the PC.
After using his program on the PSP it seemed it was missing some things.
The start button exited the program and select didn't work.
It had a display for the buttons you would press, and while it was functional, I like
a little more detail to be displayed. I then wrote my own controller from
scratch and only borrowed a small portion of his code (the packet creation).
Here is a link to the thread that started this all in a way for me.
AFFILIATION NOTE
I don't know Mikko Monone or the authors of PPJoy.
There is no affiliation with them at all. I thank them for their programs.
This basically turns your PSP into a controller for your PC (running Windows).
How it works is that PPJoy provides a way to create a virtual joystick.
We can then communicate with this virtual joystick as though it were a real joystick. This is accomplished by running a server in Microsoft Windows. The server just runs i the background waiting for a connection. When you start the WiFiController program on your Sony PSP it will establish a network connection over wireless using infrastructure mode. Once it establishes a connection and obtains an IP address it will connect to the server running on your PC. Once it has connected to your PC it will act just like a regular joystick.
NOTES
Although I have not comfirmed this myself, I have heard that this works on v2.60 PSP's as well. I originally wrote this program for v1.00 and v1.50 only
so future versions may not work on v2.60.
//此版本仅能运行在1.0和1.5版本,2.60版本好像不行,当然对于使用DA版本的我们来说这并是什么问题。
I'm going to attempt to explain how to get this working. These steps are all
necessary and you should pay close attention to them.
1) Open the PSP directory and edit the proper wifi.cfg for your PSP version
and set the IP of the computer you are going to use this on. If you don't
know your IP address. Go to your "Start" menu. Click on "Run..." When the
box opens up type "cmd.exe" without the quotes. When the command prompt
opens type "ipconfig" without the quotes. It will report your IP address.
//首先要知道你自己电脑的IP地址,使用Ipconfig的命令我想应该会用吧,这里也就不详细的说了。总之知道了电脑的IP地址后要记录下来。
2) Copy the correct director(y|ies) to your PSP depending on whether you have
a v1.00 or v1.50 PSP. If you use a custom firmware mod that allows the use
of a single EBOOT.PBP files on a v1.50 PSP then you can use the v1.00
directory.
6) It will want to install some drivers so either have it scan automatically
or point it to the directory you installed PPJoy to.
7) After it is done installing, click the "PPJoy Virtual joystick 1" in the
menu and click "Mapping..."
8) Choose "Set a custom mapping for this controller" and click "Next."
9) Set these options for best results.
Axes = 2 (X Axis and Y Axis)
Buttons = 9
POV hats = 1
10) X Axis = Analog 0
Y Axis = Analog 1
11) These buttons are up to you to set. You should leave "Button 1" set to
"nothing" otherwise you may have problems using the Triangle button on
your PSP later.
Button 1 = nothing
Button 2 = Digital 0
Button 3 = Digital 1
Button 4 = Digital 2
Button 5 = Digital 3
Button 6 = Digital 4
Button 7 = Digital 5
Button 8 = Digital 11
Button 9 = Digital 10
12) Directional button POV
North = Digital 6
East = Digital 7
West = Digital 9
South = Digital 8
//相信你以安装好PPJoy,那么就要开始下面的工作了。好的开始是成功的一半,但现在你离成功只有一两步了,加油。
13) Run the WiFiController.exe program. It will open a Command Prompt window.
Just minimize it. You need to have WiFiController.exe running at all times
in order to use the PSP as a joystick. When you are done using it you can
safely exit the program. If the window opens and closes then something
went wrong beyond my control. All I can say is retry all the steps. Read
PPJoy's website as well for help in getting that setup because that is
most likely where the problem lies.
//打开WiFiController的PC端软件,最小化他,在使用PSP时这个要一直开着。(见图)
14) Now start the program on your PSP and it should connect to your computer
and basically be working. You'll find out in the next step.
//好了,在psp上运行吧。
15) Go back to your Control Panel and go to Game Controllers. Click on "PPJoy
Virtual joystick 1" and choose Properties. On the screen that comes up
you should be able to press buttons on the PSP and have them show as
working on the screen. I recommend calibrating the Analog Stick too.
//在控制面板上选择控制器,你就可以校准你的psp手柄了。
