See those views with no answers? If you come for help, it's best not to dictate the conditions of how the help is to be received. A little effort on your part is needed.

And..as always Google is your friend:

(BTW DBA has a free template)

That was the one i meant i was not looking for, i cant get the template to work ;(

I have searched on google, Gamsalad, Youtube And Everywhere for something! But i cant find Some good [WORKING] Tutorials/Templates for it!

Have you tried the official cross platform controller template? it sounds like it's just what you need.

Thanks, but i cant find a way to get it work ;(

BoomshackBarry

Both of those solutions seem to work for other people so I think what you probably need is help working out why you can't get them to work for your game. That would require you giving a lot more info on what the problem is though.

I will try it again, and come back to you later

I used the official cross platform version when I first started GS, it worked perfect.

Mathiashelseth99

But did you already made a project and just put the template in your game? or did you start off with it?

I implemented the cross platform thumbstick into one of my games. It took me longer than I'd like to admit, and required a LOT of attention to all the attributes and expressions. I tried it probably 50 times before I got it to work - there was always one little thing I'd missed.

I ended up going for a different control style and removing it ~X(

I started with it, and built from there.

Then you must have accidentally deleted or changed a part of it, as it will have been working when you started

Mathiashelseth99

I started with it, and built from there.

Yeah cuz i know it is easier to start with it

i have tried that, but adding it to the game is a lot of work!

jamie_c

Nobody ever said gamedev was easy!

Good luck with it!
