Hello!
I'm going to connect custom input controller, so trying to use input plugin.
DLL is renamed to dli and put to plugins folder.
It is loaded ok and methods Startup(), GetControllerInfo(), GetControllerData(), ... are called by GPBikes, so everything seems OK except controller is not visible in calibration dialog in game settings, and some strange axis name with corrupt symbols get assigned to axis.
And it don't work. Tested on beta3 and beta4.
And also wanted to propose using one standard plugin interface for telemetry and input and.. what can be next. Having different dlls is a little bit inconvenient if you need to use telemetry and input at the same time...

Input plugin controllers are not shown in calibration, because they are supposed to be already calibrated.
Could you please write the corrupt symbols assigned to axis?
Please make sure that the unused inputs are set to 0 ( m_iNumSliders, m_iNumButtons, ... ).
Is the _iID parameter of GetControllerData the correct one?
Y.re right, problem is with _iID.
Looks like corrupt symbols was when i've commented out 'if(_iID == ctrInfo.m_iID)' in GetControllerData() to see what happens. With this line uncommented there are no symbols or other problems, but _iID passed to GetControllerData() is wrong.
It takes 2 values, most of the time -2147024891 and sometimes 79495860 (in beta3), 73854004 (in beta4b).
Looks like SControllerInfo_t data is inited correctly, please, see screenshot

Maybe calling convention?
Functions are exported as
#define EXPORT extern "C" __declspec (dllexport)
Or potentially it could be structure alignment.
Please make sure that structure packing is 8 bytes, and that "char" of strings is single-byte.
Now structures are definitely 8 byte aligned with pragma. Nothing have changed.
I can send vs project I'm debugging if there is nothing else I can try to get it working.
Figured out what the problem with parameters was.
EXPORT int GetControllerData(int _iID, SControllerData_t *_psData)
{
if(_iID == ctrInfo.m_iID)
{
//ServGetData(&servInData);
//for(int i=0; i < 6; i++)
// ctrData.m_aiAxis[i] = servInData.axes[i];
ctrData.m_aiAxis[0] = sin(dbg_rad+= 0.01F) * 32000;
//_psData = &ctrData; <<<< WRONG
memcpy(_psData, &ctrData, sizeof(SControllerData_t));//<<< OK
}
return 0;
}
Now everything works.

Great to know that the problem is solved.
