Xbox 360 Controller Component for Windows and WPF Applications

Saturday, December 29 2007

In my last post I talked about an Addin for Powerpoint that allowed you to use your Xbox 360 Controller to control the presentation. The addin uses a small component that wraps around the XNA Frameworks Gamepad class that allow the controller to be used inside any windows or WPF Application.

This component can be used in Visual Studio to build Windows/WPF applications.

It wraps XNA Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Input.GamePad class and provides an interface with events associated with each button status change, as well as on game pad connect/disconnect.

You will need XNA Framework 2.0 to use it.

Here is the link to the Direct Download for the Component.

Ditto my last comment... creating an XNA framework dependency just to use XInput is crazy.
