Vpad.rpl

This controls communication with the Gamepad, internally called VPAD by this library. It uses the VPADBASE library internally.

Functions

Name	Prototype	Description
VPADGetLcdMode	int VPADGetLcdMode(int padnum, VPADDisplayMode *lcdmode);	Gets LCD mode of gamepad and stores it in lcdmode
VPADSetLcdMode	int VPADSetLcdMode(int padnum, VPADDisplayMode *lcdmode);	Sets LCD mode of gamepad based on lcdmode
VPADRead	int VPADRead(int padnum, VPADData *buffer, int num_datasets, int *err);	Stores raw controller data in buffer for the specified Gamepad

Structures/Enums

VPAD Display Mode

Can be gotten using VPADGetLcdMode().

typedef enum {
    DISPLAY_MODE_STANDBY = 0,       /* This is probably the mode you can set as a user in HOME - Turn display off */
    DISPLAY_MODE_OFF = 1,                /* This turns off the display completely, the gamepad can be used as a pure input controller */
    DISPLAY_MODE_DEFAULT   = 0xFF /* Default mode */
} VPADDisplayMode;

VPAD Data

Can be gotten using VPADRead(), num_datasets seems to control the max amount of "datasets" to keep. A single dataset containing raw controller data is 0xAC bytes. The first three words of a datset are bitmasks of the flags listed below.

typedef struct
{
    uint16_t x, y;               /* Touch coordinates */
    uint16_t touched;            /* 1 = Touched, 0 = Not touched */
    uint16_t validity;           /* 0 = All valid, 1 = X invalid, 2 = Y invalid, 3 = Both invalid? */
} VPADTPData;

typedef struct
{
    uint32_t btn_hold;           /* Held buttons */
    uint32_t btn_trigger;        /* Buttons that are pressed at that instant */
    uint32_t btn_release;        /* Released buttons */
    Vec2D lstick, rstick;        /* Each contains 4-byte X and Y components */
    char unknown1c[0x52 - 0x1c]; /* Contains accelerometer and gyroscope data somewhere */
    VPADTPData tpdata;           /* Normal touchscreen data */
    VPADTPData tpdata1;          /* Modified touchscreen data 1 */
    VPADTPData tpdata2;          /* Modified touchscreen data 2 */
    char unknown6a[0xa0 - 0x6a];
    uint8_t volume;
    uint8_t battery;             /* 0 to 6 */
    uint8_t unk_volume;          /* One less than volume */
    char unknowna4[0xac - 0xa4];
} VPADData;
