About GlovePIE

 

GlovePIE stands for Glove Programmable Input Emulator. It doesn't have to be used with VR Gloves, but it was originally started as a system for emulating Joystick and Keyboard Input using the Essential Reality P5 Glove. Now it supports emulating all kinds of input, using all kinds of devices, including Polhemus, Intersense, Ascension, WorldViz, 5DT, and eMagin products. It can also control MIDI or OSC output.

 

In the GlovePIE window you type or load a simple script. For example to control the WASD keys with a glove:

 

W = glove.z > -50 cm

S = glove.z < -70 cm

A = glove.x < -10 cm

D = glove.x > 10 cm

 

You can also use GlovePIE to play Joystick-only games without a joystick, or keyboard-only games with a joystick. Or you can use it to create macro buttons for complex keystrokes.

 

You can even use it to control multiple mouse pointers with multiple mice.

System Requirements

 

You will need:

Windows 98 or above (Windows 2000 or above to emulate keys in DirectInput games or use multiple fake cursors - Windows XP or above to get input from multiple mice or keyboards individually or to read some special keys).

DirectX 8 or above.

There is other optional software you might need for certain features. See the download page for links to download them. Joystick emulation requires PPJoy. Speech requires SAPI 5.1 with microsoft recogniser.

 

You don't need any special hardware.

It's not coding... lol

 

I don't know what it's actually called when an application does this (I forgot), let's stick with input sending. It is just used for macros basically. It doesn't really do anything else lol...

 

(Good for PC Games though, fyi.)

You'd think after going through all the trouble for something like this, he would make it simpler lol...

 

press a

wait 100 ms

release a

wait 100 ms

 

why not make a subroutine:

 

type a

 

which would do the above 4 lines? :/, it'd be alot more compact.
