    Could you guys name a few games that use the analogue mode of USB joysticks? Any games that support the rumble of some USB pads? I have added a backwards compatibility mode for the Xbox pad into lowlevel.library but need to test it with some games that use these features.

    I know PowerSDL games can use the analogue mode - the question is: which ones?

    It has been almost 10 years since I last tried an analog joystick on MorphOS (mmmh, time flies!). Anyway, VirtualGP2 supports for sure analog wheels and IIRC should also support analog USB sticks... Give it a try!
    Among SDL ports, I would place my bet on TORCS and Speed Dreams. If they do not support analog input they should be updated to do so, but I think they do since the controls are "fully analog".

    Kind regards,
    Andrea

    BoulderDäsh V5 is supporting rumble via lowlevel.library.

    Neither Speed Dreams nor TORCS use SDL for the joytick input, but they do support analog input via lowlevel.library and sensors.library.
    This is just like television, only you can see much further.

    Many games supported by MAME support analog controls.

    -EDIT-
    If you need specific game, Thunderblade supports 3 analog axis (but I guess only 2 can be used with lowlevel.library)

    I've just bought myself an XBox 360 controller, but I need some tips on which game I can try it on with. So far I've found none.

    TORCS. But it will also work on current MorphOS betas with all games that use lowlevel.library.
