The problem is indeed the same as the mouse -- the Max Packet Size for the End Point is 64 bytes and USBJSTIK only allows 32 bytes (32 bytes of data is more than enough for a joystick). This is actually a really screwed-up design by the manufacturer. Even though the End Point says the joystick may send up to 64 bytes, according to the HID Report Descriptor it will never send more than 8 bytes. There is also an OUT End Point, which means that the computer can send data to the joystick (for example, if the joystick supported force feedback). But, the HID Report Descriptor doesn't say anything about the output data. Basically, it's a really screwed up joystick where the different descriptors don't correspond to each other or to reality. But I should be able to fix USBJSTIK so it works.

[maxtherabbit]

Can't say I'm surprised. It's a cheap Chinese fight stick. It dose not have force feedback or any other feature that would necessitate host->device writes

[Bret]

Here's a new version of USBJSTIK to try. It will hopefully work with your joystick now. USBJSTIK was already setup in a flexible enough fashion that it was a pretty easy change to make, even though it wouldn't have been needed if the joystick manufacturer knew what they were doing. Anyway, give it a try and let me know.

[maxtherabbit]

No joy. When booting without EMM386 it just still beeps and gives the exact same error. (214 / 0040h)

When booting with EMM386, after loading the driver, the system crashes when the joystick is connected.

[Bret]

I'll do some more testing and see if I can figure anything out. Glad the mouse is working, though.

[Bret]

Just letting you know that I haven't had a chance to look at this yet, and not sure when I will get time in the near future. Too much "real life" going on.

[maxtherabbit]

that's ok, thanks again for your help with the mouse
