PS3 Ion Drum Rocker

[srki82]

Hi!

I tried to play real drums using PS3 Ion Drum Rocker kit, but cymbals aren't detected. I guess XBOX and PS3 have different "signals" for cymbals... this is what I get from PSCtrl:
<DEVICE>
<NAME>Ion Audio Drum Rocker for Playstation(R)3</NAME>
<VID>4794</VID>
<PID>528</PID>
<MAGICBUTTON>5</MAGICBUTTON>
<MAGICDATA>-1</MAGICDATA>
<XROTCEN>0</XROTCEN>
<GYROCUTOFF>99</GYROCUTOFF>
<TYPE>0</TYPE>
<BUTTONS>
<GREEN>49,128,0</GREEN>
<RED>50,128,0</RED>
<YELLOW>51,128,0</YELLOW>
<BLUE>48,128,0</BLUE>
<UP>32,0,4294967295</UP>
<DOWN>32,18000,4294967295</DOWN>
<LEFT>32,27000,4294967295</LEFT>
<RIGHT>32,9000,4294967295</RIGHT>
<BACK>56,128,0</BACK>
<START>57,128,0</START>
<BASS>52,128,0</BASS>
</BUTTONS>
</DEVICE>

So... PS3 Ion's will be supported in next version, right?

Maybe, I'll need comfirm so more details as the drums are not as simple as that if they are similer to the 360 drums

Thanks

I'll be glad to provide whatever info you need.

I'm trying to get the PS3 Kits working if anyone has either the PS3 Ion Rocker or RB3 Pro Drums then please let me know.

Thanks

I am planning to see my PS3 Ion Kit in the mail tomorrow. I would be glad to help.

Here's an update regarding PS3 Pro Drums:

I'm having trouble with Direct Input when receiving the data in sequential groups. As such I'm not able to decipher if the TOMS/CYMBAL markers are linked to a Pad hit in real time. It's a bit complex to explain but I'm still looking into it and I'll keep you posted.

Thanks
David

srki82:
I was wondering/hoping if along with the TOM and CYMBAL Markers if the POV-Hat ( DPAD ) sends any additional signals specifically when the blue and yellow cymbals are hit?

Thanks

Hi... sorry for the delay. I'm not at home right now, so I can't send you infos. I should be at home on saturday, so you can expect to receive data then

[David]

No problem and thanks for helping out.

Ok... my brother back home was ready to help... when he hit yellow cymbal UP on dpad was pressed, blue cymbal pressed DOWN dpad. Other cymbals and all toms and kick do not change state of the dpad.

[David]

Perfect! That's exactly what I was hoping for!

I'll have a test version working shortly which I'll post here for you to test out.

Thanks
David

[David]

OK, I've created a test version which should allow the PS3 Ion to use all cymbals and toms.

Make sure you are running the latest full build of the game.
Replace the Main EXE and the DL.ini with the new files in this zip.

Let me know how it turns out!

Thanks

Hello,

I'm also interested in your Ion Drum Rocker PS3 fix, but it appears your former link is dead.
Could you upload it again please ?

And by the way, thanks for your great work so far !
