You need the following tools and instruments:

Flashing software with USB-UART converter

  • Connect USB-UART converted to BluePill board as shown at picture below:

  • Set jumper for BOOT0 to 1 position:

  • Connect USB-UART converter to your PC
  • Upload binary to the board.
    • Make sure to use the .hex version.
    • Adjust ttyUSB0 if your USB port is different.
    • If you have problems connecting to the board try lower baud rates like -b 9600.
stm32flash -b 115200 -w build/FreeJoy.bin -v /dev/ttyUSB0
  • Set BOOT0 jumper to 0 position and unplug all connections
  • Connect your BluePill device to your PC with an USB cable. FreeJoy device should now appear in your system as a game controller.

Configuration

There is a FreeJoyConfiguratorQt tool for Windows/Linux. Linux games (ubuntu, others not tested) need at least 1 logical button and X Y axes with enabled output. Otherwise, the games will not see the controller.

You may want to build the project yourself. In this case you need the arm-toolchain (Debian, Ubuntu) and make to do so. Detailed instructions for building are placed in /armgcc folder of the project.
