Hans,
Is your hardware labeled to be specifically for PS2?
At least this one article mentions that the hardware is equal among all platforms. http://www.hwhell.com/articles/gametrak-hardware-review
If you are using a generic PS2 <-> USB converter, it does seem likely that the converter is filtering obscure data other than the conventional buttons. i.e., the one I use filters out only the input from the analog keys.
On a related note, I just bought one of these very nice controllers
called a gametrak. It is basically like two 3D joysticks but instead
of sticks, it has strings which you can clip on to things to track
them in 3D. The cheesy promo video gives you a good idea of what you
can do with it:http://www.in2games.uk.com/corporate/press-item.php?pressid=5
I used one that Jonas Hielscher let me borrow and I plugged it in and
it just worked with [hid]. I just got the one I ordered, it is a
"PlayStation 2" controller, I am not sure which Jonas' is. But with
mine, it shows up in [hid] fine, but I don't get any data from it.Anyone know, is there something special about PS2 USB controllers?

Should just be HID protocol. Check the help patch for the [hid] object (in Extended or self-compiled) and see what parameters come in. After that, enjoy mapping them to something and rock out!

I've seen some developments with the Guitar Heroes controller on Max/MSP. I've been unable to get the one patch I found to really
open in PD. I'd love to try to do something with it. Anyone has any
experience developing and working with the Mac/PC version of the controller
in PD? Any tips would greatly be appreciated.-- derek holzer ::: http://www.umatic.nl ::: http://blog.myspace.com/ macumbista ---Oblique Strategy # 71: "Fill every beat with something"
