Keyboard + mouse for games? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just paired my bluetooth keyboard and mouse to my N7. I should have tried this sooner. It's an awesome experience.
Is there a way to play games like Dead trigger using the keyboard and mouse like a PC FPS game?

Curious - Which keyboard and mouse are you using?

Im curious too how could i use my keyboard and mouse as gamepad, in dead trigger all i can do is move with WASD buttons.
when i try to customize gamepad in settings. but i cant change anything from the defaults.. and that is frustrating.
Phon eis SGS3 mouse is microsoft bluetooth notebook mouse 5000 and keyboard is microsoft bluetooth mobile keyboard 6000.

Its really awesome using my xbox controller with onlive and any other game that supports it. I would love a true list of games that support different inputs.

This app should do the trick. Need root though. I haven't tried it myself yet but looks awesome. I wish there was a way for devices with hdmi out to actually turn off the tablet while playing on a large screen

check this video out of someone mapping it for a fps:

I'd like to hear someone's review specifically for a fps and how well the mouse handles. It doesn't look like he has the sensitivity that high and I'm not sure if it can be set so you can do a quick-flick 180's.

anyone get it working?

I used ShareKM and then, for dead trigger, this is the default weird configuration :
1) Directional keys to move around.
2) I,k,j,l to look around.
3) a,d to switch weapons.
4) 7 to use ironsight, 8 to reload and 9 to fire.
Too bad cant change the configuration of this. Also, I seem to have some trouble using the new app "TinCore Mapper".

possible mouse support?

according to these screenshots, http://www.android-x86.org/screenshot , from the android x86 project, android has been made to work with a mouse. it has also been made to work with a bluetooth keyboard. is it possible that maybe we will someday have bluetooth mouse support? im thinking Quake 3, people. thatll be awesome.
WHAT?! i ran the hidd script with my mouses mac address and it worked. holllyyy ****. does anyone know if theres a way to edit settings, like sensitivity, and possibly rotate the input? because when the screen is in landscape, for games such as quake 3 for instance, the input still works as if it was in portrait. or at least show the cursor?
I think it's time to start a [THINKTANK] thread

Onlive app.

Has anyone tried Onlive app from market place yet on the Streak?
I was able to download the app and started a trial game but not sure how to use it without a keyboard. Any ideas.
Cheers,
David.

There are only so many supported touch screen games...
Look for the finger (next to the pad or keyboard),
This means it has touch controls.
They are bringing out a bluetooth controller for it which will work with all games (due before christmas)
Thanks for that. Will a normal bluetooth keyboard work?
Not sure m8.

[Q] Any way to pair a Revue keyboard to the OUYA?

I'm just wondering because I hate my Revue but love it's keyboard. I would like to use it on my OUYA. I read up on it some & think that you'd need a "Unity USB" and possibly software. Is this even possible?

get that instead. The logitech revue keyboard uses it's own wireless signal and probably would be near impossible to actually set up.
Using that same keyboard currently on the Ouya for web browsing and XBMC and I am disappoint. While the mini receiver is plugged into the Ouya the console acts up not registering game pad button presses and just generally acting glitchy. So bad that I need to unplug it when I want to game.
I used a Logitech wireless mouse and the USB unified receiver to setup nova and do some installs, but didn't try gaming. It did register as a controller though, because the actual controller shows up as 2

Yes you can use the Revue KB. Just buy the Unity USB and download the K700 software from logitech.com and your done. You will be able to use it anywhere. I use it on the G-box Mx-2 Midnight. The Revue KB K700 is also smaller than the K400 KB.

So the K700 software from logitech.com is able to be installed on the OUYA?
Edit: I couldn't find a software download on the Logitech website. Here's a screenshot

My mouse was already paired on the PC, I didn't install anything on the OUYA for it.

Using Android Phone as a touch screen controller for M.O.J.O.?

Is there an app that would allow you to use your preexisting Android smartphone/tablet as a touch screen controller for the M.O.J.O console?
I am looking for something that would allow full pinch/pull/tap/swipe gesture functionality.
During my search I came across a great number of apps that turn your Android/iPhone device into a wireless remote control/mouse to control your TV or computer, but nothing that would allow you to use one Android device's touchscreen to control another Android device (M.O.J.O. in this instance).
Please let me know if you have any leads. :highfive:
interesting, quick search, i found these
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.im.RemoDroid&hl=en
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tournesol.tabletremote&hl=en
I already try this app, but unfortunatly it doesn't work.
I use Droidmote.

The problem is that if you do not stream the picture back to the phone it can be difficult to know where you are placing your finger.
With my mapper you can stream touches or use parts of the of the phone touchscreen as different kinds of controllers that you can stream but, so far, I have not written multitouch to multiouch streaming.
If this is an scenario useful for some people I would add it.

I have a working alpha with this functionality. If anybody is interested send a PM.

Yes I think there would be a strong demand for this type of function as the number of devices increase per person. Sending the image back to the phone would be difficult and mapping it to known keys seems like the easier solution. If its possible, I would like to try your alpha. :good:
I uploaded a beta of the mapper that supports that.

I will pushing it to production very soon.
I'll try to make a video too to demo networking as well.

This is all on the play store for some days.
Remote connection to Android or PC streaming is available for months. The new thing is the multitouch to multitouch simulation.

Hey
Is controller emulation/spoofing possible with an existing controller ?
IE select a popular controller (ie supported by gameloft, etc) then you map buttons/keys/sticks to it..
Mobile gamedev's don't like doing controller mapping for some reason
Edit: the ctrlr works okay on gameloft games but not 100% same with GTA games

Because at present the game has not been optimised for the mojo c.t.r.l.r, you can either connect a ps3 controller using sixaxis app and follow the provided tutorial.
Buy a xbox 360 controller transmitter and connect an xbox 360 controller and map using usb/bt joy app (youtube fora tutorial)
Or use the mojo controller configuring it to use on screen touch mapping using tincore key mapper (again youtube a tutorial) unfortuinately you will need a mouse connected to be able to drag down the tincore keymapper tool from the drop down menu when first wanting to map the keys, you can then save the profile so you dont require the mouse in future.
Thats the best i can think of at hand, possibly someone else has found a better way to map the ctrlr to mimic onscreen gestures

Which version to you have?
Mine works fine. I have version v1.0.7
The game should automatically recognize it.
I have a bluetooth keyboard and I start the game using the keyboard while my ctrlr is set to game mode.
Hope this helps

I was under the impression the developer of the app/game you are using has to have added support for the ctrlr so when start the game it detects the controller and works fine.
But for the bulk majority of android games that haven't added ctlrlr compatability it ain't going to work/work corectly by just moving the switch to game pad mode. For these games we require the tincore or sixaxis app.
