Funcții membru

Member functions for ISteamController are called through the global accessor function SteamController().

ActivateActionSet

void ActivateActionSet( ControllerHandle_t controllerHandle, ControllerActionSetHandle_t actionSetHandle );
NameTypeDescription
controllerHandleControllerHandle_tThe handle of the controller you want to activate an action set for.
actionSetHandleControllerActionSetHandle_tThe handle of the action set you want to activate.

Reconfigure the controller to use the specified action set (ie "Menu", "Walk", or "Drive").

This is cheap, and can be safely called repeatedly. It's often easier to repeatedly call it in your state loops, instead of trying to place it in all of your state transitions.

Example:
void updateStateLoop() { switch( currentState ) { case MENU: SteamController()->ActivateActionSet( controllerHandle1, menuSetHandle ); doMenuStuff(); break; case WALKING: SteamController()->ActivateActionSet( controllerHandle1, walkingSetHandle ); doWalkingStuff(); break; case DRIVING: SteamController()->ActivateActionSet( controllerHandle1, drivingSetHandle ); doDrivingStuff(); break; case FIGHTING: SteamController()->ActivateActionSet( controllerHandle1, fightingSetHandle ); doFightingStuff(); break; } }

Activate All Controllers

Oftentimes, you'll want to activate all the controllers at once, rather than a single device. For this you should use the constant STEAM_CONTROLLER_HANDLE_ALL_CONTROLLERS as your controller handle. You can likewise use this value in any other function that calls for an individual controller handle.

Example:
void updateStateLoop() { switch( currentState ) { case MENU: SteamController()->ActivateActionSet( STEAM_CONTROLLER_HANDLE_ALL_CONTROLLERS, menuSetHandle ); doMenuStuff(); break; case WALKING: SteamController()->ActivateActionSet( STEAM_CONTROLLER_HANDLE_ALL_CONTROLLERS, walkingSetHandle ); doWalkingStuff(); break; case DRIVING: SteamController()->ActivateActionSet( STEAM_CONTROLLER_HANDLE_ALL_CONTROLLERS, drivingSetHandle ); doDrivingStuff(); break; case FIGHTING: SteamController()->ActivateActionSet( STEAM_CONTROLLER_HANDLE_ALL_CONTROLLERS, fightingSetHandle ); doFightingStuff(); break; } }

Must be called when starting use of the ISteamController interface.

Returnează: bool
Always returns true.

Example:
SteamController()->Init();

RunFrame

void RunFrame();
Synchronize API state with the latest Steam Controller inputs available. This is performed automatically by SteamAPI_RunCallbacks, but for the absolute lowest possible latency, you can call this directly before reading controller state.

Example:
SteamController()->RunFrame();

SetLEDColor

void SetLEDColor( ControllerHandle_t controllerHandle, uint8 nColorR, uint8 nColorG, uint8 nColorB, unsigned int nFlags );
NameTypeDescription

nColorGuint8The green component of the color to set (0-255).
nColorBuint8The blue component of the color to set (0-255).
nFlagsunsigned intBit-masked flags combined from values defined in ESteamControllerLEDFlag.

Set the controller LED color on supported controllers.

Notes:
The VSC does not support any color but white, and will interpret the RGB values as a greyscale value affecting the brightness of the Steam button LED.
The DS4 responds to full color information and uses the values to set the color & brightness of the lightbar.

Example:
// Restore the user default color for controller 1: SteamController()->SetLEDColor( controller1Handle, 0, 0, 0, k_ESteamControllerLEDFlag_RestoreUserDefault ); // Set the color to magenta for controller 2: SteamController()->SetLEDColor( controller2Handle, 255, 0, 255, k_ESteamControllerLEDFlag_SetColor );

Deprecated.

Returnează: bool
Always returns true.

Shutdown

bool Shutdown();
Must be called when ending use of the ISteamController interface.

Returnează: bool
Always returns true.

Example:
SteamController()->Shutdown();

StopAnalogActionMomentum

void StopAnalogActionMomentum( ControllerHandle_t controllerHandle, ControllerAnalogActionHandle_t eAction );
NameTypeDescription
controllerHandleControllerHandle_tThe handle of the controller to affect.
eActionControllerAnalogActionHandle_tThe analog action to stop momentum for.

Stops the momentum of an analog action (where applicable, ie a touchpad w/ virtual trackball settings).

NOTE:
This will also stop all associated haptics. This is useful for situations where you want to indicate to the user that the limit of an action has been reached, such as spinning a carousel or scrolling a webpage.

Example:
SteamController()->StopAnalogActionMomentum( controller1Handle, moveHandle );

TriggerHapticPulse

void TriggerHapticPulse( ControllerHandle_t controllerHandle, ESteamControllerPad eTargetPad, unsigned short usDurationMicroSec );
NameTypeDescription
controllerHandleControllerHandle_tThe handle of the controller to affect.
eTargetPadESteamControllerPadWhich haptic touch pad to affect.
usDurationMicroSecunsigned shortDuration of the pulse, in microseconds (1/1,000,000th of a second)

Triggers a (low-level) haptic pulse on supported controllers.

Notes:
Currently only the VSC supports haptic pulses.
This API call will be ignored for all other controller models.
The typical max value of an unsigned short is 65535, which means the longest haptic pulse you can trigger with this method has a duration of 0.065535 seconds (ie, less than 1/10th of a second). This function should be thought of as a low-level primitive meant to be repeatedly used in higher-level user functions to generate more sophisticated behavior.

Example:
//Pulse once for 1/20th of a second SteamController()->TriggerHapticPulse(controller1Handle, k_ESteamControllerPad_Left, 50000);

TriggerRepeatedHapticPulse

void TriggerRepeatedHapticPulse( ControllerHandle_t controllerHandle, ESteamControllerPad eTargetPad, unsigned short usDurationMicroSec, unsigned short usOffMicroSec, unsigned short unRepeat, unsigned int nFlags );
NameTypeDescription
controllerHandleControllerHandle_tThe handle of the controller to affect.
eTargetPadESteamControllerPadWhich haptic touch pad to affect.
usDurationMicroSecunsigned shortDuration of the pulse, in microseconds (1/1,000,000th of a second).
usOffMicroSecunsigned shortDuration of the pause between pulses, in microseconds.
unRepeatunsigned shortNumber of times to repeat the usDurationMicroSec / usOffMicroSec duty cycle.
nFlagsunsigned intCurrently unused and reserved for future use.

Triggers a repeated haptic pulse on supported controllers.

Notes:
Currently only the VSC supports haptic pulses.
This API call will be ignored for incompatible controller models.
This is a more user-friendly function to call than TriggerHapticPulse as it can generate pulse patterns long enough to be actually noticed by the user.
Changing the usDurationMicroSec and usOffMicroSec parameters will change the "texture" of the haptic pulse.

Example:
//Pulse for 1 second with an on/off pulse pattern of 1/20th of a second each SteamController()->TriggerRepeatedHapticPulse( controller1Handle, k_ESteamControllerPad_Left, 50000, 50000, 10 );

TriggerVibration

void TriggerVibration( ControllerHandle_t controllerHandle, unsigned short usLeftSpeed, unsigned short usRightSpeed );
NameTypeDescription
controllerHandleControllerHandle_tThe handle of the controller to affect.
usLeftSpeedunsigned shortThe intensity value for the left rumble motor.
usRightSpeedunsigned shortThe intensity value of the right rumble motor.

Trigger a vibration event on supported controllers.

Notes:
This API call will be ignored for incompatible controller models.
This generates the traditional "rumble" vibration effect.
The VSC will emulate traditional rumble using its haptics.

Example:
SteamController()->TriggerVibration( controller1Handle, 10000, 10000 );

GetActionOriginFromXboxOrigin

EControllerActionOrigin GetActionOriginFromXboxOrigin( ControllerHandle_t controllerHandle, EXboxOrigin eOrigin );
NameTypeDescription
controllerHandleControllerHandle_tThe handle of the controller to affect. You can use GetControllerForGamepadIndex to get this handle
eOriginEXboxOriginThis is the button you want to get the image for ex: k_EXboxOrigin_A

Returnează: EControllerActionOrigin

Get an action origin that you can use in your glyph look up table or passed into GetGlyphForActionOrigin or GetStringForActionOrigin


Exemplu:
int nXinputSlot = 1; // Substitute whatever the correct Xinput slot is for your player ControllerHandle_t controller1Handle = GetControllerForGamepadIndex( nXinputSlot ); EControllerActionOrigin buttonOrigin = SteamController()->GetActionOriginFromXboxOrigin( controller1Handle, k_EXboxOrigin_A ); // Get the image from the Steam client . const char *localGlyphPath = SteamController()->GetGlyphForActionOrigin( buttonOrigin ); printf( "path = %s\n", localGlyphPath ); // "path = C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\tenfoot\resource\images\library\controller\api\ps4_button_x.png" //a function from the game that turns a file path into a usable game texture glyphTextureID = loadButtonGlyphTextureFromLocalPath( localGlyphPath );

TranslateActionOrigin

EControllerActionOrigin TranslateActionOrigin( ESteamInputType eDestinationInputType, EControllerActionOrigin eSourceOrigin );
NameTypeDescription
controllerHandleControllerHandle_tThe handle of the controller to affect. You can use GetControllerForGamepadIndex to get this handle
eDestinationInputTypeESteamInputTypeThe controller type you want to translate to. Steam will pick the closest type from your SDK version if k_ESteamInputType_Unknown is used
eSourceOriginEControllerActionOriginThis is the button you want to translate

Returnează: EControllerActionOrigin

Get the equivalent origin for a given controller type or the closest controller type that existed in the SDK you built into your game if eDestinationInputType is k_ESteamInputType_Unknown. This action origin can be used in your glyph look up table or passed into GetGlyphForActionOrigin or GetStringForActionOrigin


Exemplu:
int nXinputSlot = 1; // Substitute whatever the correct Xinput slot is for your player ControllerHandle_t controller1Handle = GetControllerForGamepadIndex( nXinputSlot ); EControllerActionOrigin buttonOrigin = SteamController()->GetActionOriginFromXboxOrigin( controller1Handle, k_EXboxOrigin_A ); //i.e, k_EControllerActionOrigin_PS4_X if ( buttonOrigin >= k_EControllerActionOrigin_Count ) { // We didn't ship any art in our game for this origin! I guess Steam has added support for // a new controller. Let's get the closest value that was supported by the SDK we built against buttonOrigin = SteamController()->TranslateActionOrigin( k_ESteamInputType_Unknown, buttonOrigin ) } // This is a function from the game itself that tries to get custom glyph art int glyphTextureID = getHardCodedButtonGlyphTexture( actionOrigin );

GetControllerBindingRevision

bool GetControllerBindingRevision( ControllerHandle_t controllerHandle, int *pMajor, int *pMinor );
NameTypeDescription
controllerHandleControllerHandle_tThe handle of the controller to query.
pMajorint * Pointer to int that Major binding revision will be populated into
pMinorint * Pointer to int that Minor binding revision will be populated into

Returnează: bool - true if a device binding was successfully found and false if the binding is still loading

Get's the major and minor device binding revisions for Steam Input API configurations. Minor revisions are for small changes such as adding a new option action or updating localization in the configuration. When updating a Minor revision only one new configuration needs to be update with the "Use Action Block" flag set. Major revisions are to be used when changing the number of action sets or otherwise reworking configurations to the degree that older configurations are no longer usable. When a user's binding disagree's with the major revision of the current official configuration Steam will forcibly update the user to the new configuration. New configurations will need to be made for every controller when updating the Major revision.

Example Code:
int nMinor = -1; int nMinor = -1; const int nCurrentMajorRevision = 1; const int nCurrentMinorRevision = 1; if ( GetControllerBindingRevision( controllerHandle, &nMajor, &nMinor ) ) { if ( nMinorRevision != nCurrentMinorRevision ) { // The minor version out of date, but that's ok // next time they edit their config this will get fixed } if ( nMajorRevision != nCurrentMajorRevision ) { // This should only happen briefly while Steam detects // and then force-updates the user to the latest official config } } else { // The configuration isn't loaded for this controller yet }

Example In-game Action File Usage:
"In Game Actions" { "major_revision" "0" “minor_revision” “1” "actions" { ...

Structs

These are structs which functions in ISteamController may return and/or interact with.

ControllerAnalogActionData_t

Represents the current state of an analog action.

Notes:
  • The exact values, range, etc, depend on the configuration, but (broadly speaking) traditional analog actions will provide normalized float values in the ballpark of -1.0 to 1.0, whereas mouse-like actions will provide delta updates which indicate the number of "pixels" moved since the last frame. The upshot of this is that mouse-like actions will provide much larger absolute x and y values, and are relative to the last recorded input position, whereas traditional analog actions are smaller and relative to a central physical anchor point.
  • While the delta provided by mouse-like actions is very similar to pixel deltas as provided by an OS, the SC deltas are floats, not ints. This means less potential quantization and loss of precision when mapping this data to a camera rotation.
  • In the case of single-axis analog inputs (such as analog triggers), only the x axis will contain data; the y axis will always be zero.

NameTipDescription
eModeEControllerSourceModeThe type of data coming from this action, this will match what was specified in the action set's VDF definition.
xfloatThe current state of this action on the horizontal axis.
yfloatThe current state of this action vertical axis.
bActiveboolWhether or not this action is currently available to be bound in the active action set. If it is not available, OR does not belong to the active action set, this will be false.

Represents the current state of a digital action.

NameTipDescription
bStateboolThe current state of this action; true if the action is currently pressed, otherwise false.
bActiveboolWhether or not this action is currently available to be bound in the active action set.

ControllerMotionData_t

Represents the current state of a device's motion sensor(s).

NOTE: For rotQuatX/rotQuatY/rotQuatZ, the inertial measurement unit on the controller will create a quaternion based on fusing the gyro and the accelerometer. This value is the absolute orientation of the controller, but it will drift on the yaw axis.

NameTypeDescription
rotQuatXfloatSensor-fused absolute rotation (will drift in heading), x axis
rotQuatYfloatSensor-fused absolute rotation (will drift in heading), y axis
rotQuatZfloatSensor-fused absolute rotation (will drift in heading), z axis
rotQuatWfloatSensor-fused absolute rotation (will drift in heading), w axis

k_EControllerActionOrigin_Count196The number of values in this enum, useful for iterating.

EControllerSource

A region of the controller that can be thought of as a larger abstract modular unit that one of many modes can be applied to and output meaningful data. For example, a joystick can be treated as either a single analog input, or broken up into four discrete digital forming a virtual DPAD. Likewise, the ABXY face buttons form a natural group that be treated as four independent buttons, or as components of a virtual DPAD, etc.

NameValueDescription
k_EControllerSource_None0No controller source.
k_EControllerSource_LeftTrackpad1The left touchpad, or the left half of a central touchpad.
k_EControllerSource_RightTrackpad2The right touchpad, or the right half of a central touchpad.
k_EControllerSource_Joystick3The joystick, or if there is more than one joystick, the left joystick.
k_EControllerSource_ABXY4The four main face buttons.
k_EControllerSource_Switch5Switches/buttons on the controller that don't belong to any other specific source. This includes bumpers, start/select, and grips. This special case of misfits don't fit into the larger paradigm and thus get their own source of digital buttons and a corresponding mode that processes them.
k_EControllerSource_LeftTrigger6The left analog trigger.
k_EControllerSource_RightTrigger7The right analog trigger.
k_EControllerSource_Gyro8The internal gyroscope.
k_EControllerSource_CenterTrackpad9The central touchpad. (DS4 only)
k_EControllerSource_RightJoystick10The right joystick. If there is only one joystick, this source is not used.
k_EControllerSource_DPad11The digital pad.
k_EControllerSource_Key12Keyboard key (for keyboards with scan codes).
k_EControllerSource_Mouse13Traditional mouse
k_EControllerSource_Count14The number of enums, useful for iterating.

EControllerSourceMode

The virtual input mode imposed by the configurator upon a controller source. For instance, the configurator can make an analog joystick behave like a Dpad with four digital inputs; the EControllerSource would be k_EControllerSource_Joystick and the EControllerSourceMode would be k_EControllerSourceMode_Dpad. The mode also changes the input data received by any associated actions.

NameValueDescription
k_EControllerSourceMode_None0No input mode.
k_EControllerSourceMode_Dpad1A digital pad -- four digital directional buttons fused together in a cross pattern, such that only one button from each axis can be pressed at any given time.
k_EControllerSourceMode_Buttons2
k_EControllerSourceMode_FourButtons3Four digital face buttons, any of which can be pressed simultaneously
