cellUsbd set-up instructions
Now before you go all giddy and plug your favourite wheel to go play GT5, know that there are some limitations.
On Windows
- You need to change the driver of the accessory you want to use to WinUsb one with zadig which is a well respected software to handle this.
- Just in case the procedure to REVERT the driver is:
- Go to device manager, the device will be listed under "Universal Serial Bus Devices", right click on it,
- Properties => Driver => Update Driver => Browse my computer for driver software => Let me pick... => USB Input Device (or whatever the previous driver was).
On Linux
- Create a file called
/etc/udev/rules.d/99-ps3-peripherals.rules(you will need root permissions to create this file), and fill it with the following:SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", MODE="0666"
- Note: this gives r/w access to all USB devices by default, if you want to specify a specific device you can use:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="ABCD", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1234", MODE="0666"- changing idVendor and idProduct values to the VID/PID of the device you want to allow.
Skylander portal
To emulate skylander toys:
- Go to Manage => Skylanders Portal
- Click New and create a new file. That file represents a skylander figure and its stats, it will be automatically saved with each change to the figure in-game. You can use the combobox to choose which figure that file represents.
Also of note is that the Skylander figure data generation is incomplete and the first time you use it, it will either refuse it or some games (such as Skylanders SWAP Force) will detect it as <corrupted> and offer to repair it, once repaired it will work perfectly on all games.
