Multiple gamepad 1 PC #225

sosssego · 2024-08-11T23:43:29Z

I tried to use the BLE gamepad example from Arduino to make 2 gamepads and play cooperative games.
The only difference in code is the name of the gamepad
BleGamepad bleGamepad("Gamepad1");
BleGamepad bleGamepad("Gamepad2");
When trying to connect the second gamepad windows Failed and asked to try again.
Trying again resulted in the same issue.

I used 2 generic ESP32 devkit V1.

Connecting the controllers alone works ok.

Is there anything else I need to change in the code between the 2 gamepads?

example code:

#include <Arduino.h>
#include <BleGamepad.h>

BleGamepad bleGamepad;

void setup()
{
    Serial.begin(115200);
    Serial.println("Starting BLE work!");
    bleGamepad.begin();
    // The default bleGamepad.begin() above enables 16 buttons, all axes, one hat, and no simulation controls or special buttons
}

void loop()
{
    if (bleGamepad.isConnected())
    {
        Serial.println("Press buttons 5, 16 and start. Move all enabled axes to max. Set DPAD (hat 1) to down right.");
        bleGamepad.press(BUTTON_5);
        bleGamepad.press(BUTTON_16);
        bleGamepad.pressStart();
        bleGamepad.setAxes(32767, 32767, 32767, 32767, 32767, 32767, 32767, 32767);
        bleGamepad.setHat1(HAT_DOWN_RIGHT);
        // All axes, sliders, hats etc can also be set independently. See the IndividualAxes.ino example
        delay(500);

        Serial.println("Release button 5 and start. Move all axes to min. Set DPAD (hat 1) to centred.");
        bleGamepad.release(BUTTON_5);
        bleGamepad.releaseStart();
        bleGamepad.setHat1(HAT_CENTERED);
        bleGamepad.setAxes(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);
        delay(500);
    }
}

I don't believe that ESP32-BLE-Gamepad supports two gamepads over one connect.

The Strings pasted to to bleGamepad.begin is to name the device to the host OS, not to setup different gamepads, as can be seen -

ESP32-BLE-Gamepad/examples/CharacteristicsConfiguration/CharacteristicsConfiguration.ino

Line 10 in 11ee6e9

    
           BleGamepad bleGamepad("Custom Contoller Name", "lemmingDev", 100); // Set custom device name, manufacturer and initial battery level

I think ESP32-BLE-CompositeHID is more modular and has compositeHID.addDevice(&gamepad); which you might be able to call twice, but not something I have tried.

Hope that helps.

sosssego · 2024-08-12T14:06:05Z

Thanks for the answer.
Maybe my explanation was not clear.
I am not trying to connect twice, not twice in the same ESP32.
I have 2 esp32, and I trying to connect both devices to a PC.

but it fails to connect the second one.

LeeNX · 2024-08-12T14:54:44Z

Interesting ... Apologies for the miss read. Never tried to bind two of the same devices at the same time, but should not be a problem.

I wonder if using the BLE serial numbers for each devices been different. Thou should have different Mac address and seen as two different devices, but I could be wrong here.

ESP32-BLE-Gamepad/examples/CharacteristicsConfiguration/CharacteristicsConfiguration.ino

Line 30 in 11ee6e9

bleGamepadConfig.setSerialNumber("9876543210");

Possible make each device with a unique SerialNumber. Please let us know if it works. Might be worth adding a test case.

Another possible corner case, did you possible change any BLE characteristics and not delete the BLE device from Windows and reconnect? Been bitten more than once while testing new BLE setups.

sosssego · 2024-08-13T02:45:00Z

Tried different names, serial, and other bleGamepadConfig settings (VID, PID, GUID) with no success.
And unfortunately, I accidentally remove the USB of one of my boards.
I will buy another one to test. Or try the ESP32 c3 super mini if I can apply the solution to the sleep problem(link)

LeeNX · 2024-08-13T07:53:07Z

Oh no, broken a few interfaces myself.

I need to put some time into testing multiple gamepads on the same host and see if I get the same problem. Things I would do, to try and eliminate possible causes. First would be trying another host, possible a different OS, like maybe your phone.

Another would be using a BLE scanner/analyser like LightBlue or nRF Connect on Android and see if two different devices are been listed. Also nice to see the BLE attributes, characteristics, services and descriptors.

I hope some of that helps. Please let us know how it goes.

sosssego · 2024-08-13T21:26:17Z

I tried connecting both(now one esp32 wroom and 1 esp32 c3) to Android.
Android is not seens to recognize It as a BLE device, it says, I need an APP to use it.
I do not play games on Android so don't know any that would accept a BLE gamepad, even harder to accept 2.
Installing nRF Connect changed things a little, I was able to connect both to Android, but no idea if they are really working.
Any information from the nRF Connect that may be helpful?

OatKungKTZ · 2024-08-28T21:01:50Z

Hi, I have the same problem. I can't connect to Bluetooth with 2 devices. This is my second board. I used the same code as my first board and just config VID/PID and serialnumber I try forget the first board and this board can be connected but I have to switch every time. How can I fix this?

LeeNX · 2024-09-14T06:24:35Z

I don't have Windows, at least not at the moment setup. I have received a few ESP32-C3, which I did some tests a few weeks back on.

I will try and tested today with OSX and Android as the host and even possible another ESP32-C3 running BluePad32. Maybe with Linux too, but let's see.

leonhoo · 2024-09-14T08:16:16Z

Is this because NimBLE-Arduino is using the same IRK? A possible way
On Win11 and Mac, I can't connect 2 ESP32 Bluetooth too, the syslog on Windows says: The device (????) is trying to distribute an Identity Resolving Key that is already used by a paired device. The pairing was rejected, if the intent was to pair with this device, you may need to first delete the existing pairing information.
Has anyone solved this issue?

LeeNX · 2024-09-14T08:57:13Z

This works for me using two ESP32-C3 and a very basic sketch that just ramps the battery level up and down.

Only thing I changed between the two two devices in the sketch was different serial numbers

Device A

    bleGamepadConfig.setSerialNumber("987654321A");

Device B

    bleGamepadConfig.setSerialNumber("987654321B");

I can share the full sketch if anybody would like to try the same thing?

LeeNX · 2024-09-14T09:02:12Z

First tests was on a Mac

Second test on my Android 13 device.

Been thinking more about this issue. Some ideas that we could test. If the same firmware is upload to both devices, which has the same serial number, this could cause this problem I guess. I could see how that could happen pretty easy.

I will see if I can reproduce tomorrow. I can also upload my two firmwares images that I made.

Android can just be used for testing gamepad, like Game Controller Tester ... I am sure there are others.

Another test, try the ESP32 Keyboard or Mouse at the same time as the ESP32 BLE Game.

Looking to rule out two of the same frimwares, default mac address uploaded to both devices. Different ESP-IDF Version ( v5.1.4-586-gb6b4727c58-dirty) and/or Arduino Core Version (3.0.4) and/or Bluetooth stack and lastly, software or hardware fault.

Doing keyboard and mice tests will rule out Host OS hardware, software and possible drivers.

Another idea would be to try two totally different firmware tools, like RealRobots Gamepad Configurator.

I think my PoC proves select using test case of multiple guest devices that can connect to a host, if under the correct conditions. If we can found out the conditions that don't work and document them, other people will not fall into these same problems. Also hopeful make it easier for somebody to pick up a failed task and see what progress they can make.

Can't wait ti poke at some setup ideas and see what we find. Hoping a boomtasic and fun journey tomorrow.

leonhoo · 2024-09-20T14:07:16Z

This is a very exciting. I used ArduinoIDE to write the original code in one esp32 and realrobots in another, the two can be connected to one Win PC at the same time.
This also indirectly proves that the previous problem may be caused by the firmware.
It’s just that realrobots is not powerful enough at present. For example, I use a joystick, and the way it identifies the direction is actually to use the four buttons of up, down, left and right. In the code, I can use bleGamepad.setAxes to convert the coordinates, but this cannot be achieved in realrobots.
So currently I can only use four buttons to replace Axes.

I did another experiment. After uploading the RealRobots Gamepad firmware to esp32, I did not use the connect function of RealRobots, but directly used ArduinoIDE to write the original code. This also did not work.

Android can just be used for testing gamepad, like Game Controller Tester ... I am sure there are others.

Another test, try the ESP32 Keyboard or Mouse at the same time as the ESP32 BLE Game.

Looking to rule out two of the same frimwares, default mac address uploaded to both devices. Different ESP-IDF Version ( v5.1.4-586-gb6b4727c58-dirty) and/or Arduino Core Version (3.0.4) and/or Bluetooth stack and lastly, software or hardware fault.

Doing keyboard and mice tests will rule out Host OS hardware, software and possible drivers.

Another idea would be to try two totally different firmware tools, like RealRobots Gamepad Configurator.

I think my PoC proves select using test case of multiple guest devices that can connect to a host, if under the correct conditions. If we can found out the conditions that don't work and document them, other people will not fall into these same problems. Also hopeful make it easier for somebody to pick up a failed task and see what progress they can make.

Can't wait ti poke at some setup ideas and see what we find. Hoping a boomtasic and fun journey tomorrow.

Could you confirm if you were using NimBLE version 1.4.1 or 1.4.2 for these tests? @sosssego would you be able to confirm the same? I'm trying to track down this problem myself and I'm curious if it relates to issue #229. I'm attempting a fix in #230.

The version of NimBLE used is 1.4.2. One of my esp32 seems to be broken, so I can't test with 1.4.1 again.

@leonhoo i think i can confirm it.I have a problem with 1.4.2 i can't use multiple devices and when i tried 1.4.1 it have no problem with it everything worked well

Mystfit · 2024-10-14T03:26:37Z

@leonhoo @OatKungKTZ I managed to get it working over in #230. Try pulling that fix and if that doesn't work, upgrade your NimBLE-Arduino to the 1.5 branch as well.

OatKungKTZ · 2024-10-14T03:29:17Z

@Mystfit i tried once (your method) with 1.4.2 but it's doesn't work ok will try again with 1.5

Mystfit · 2024-10-14T03:40:46Z

@OatKungKTZ My fix probably isn't the solution but it could be related to upstream issue in the esp-nimble repo which enforces new IRK keys on a fresh boot. This fix is available in esp-nimble 1.5.0 which was merged into Nimble-Arduino at the end of June. Nimble-Arduino 1.5 is not officially released yet so you'll have to clone it instead of using the Arduino library manager.

Thank you @leonhoo for pointing me in the right direction regarding IRK.

Borrowed another esp32 to test again, and the 1.4.1 version still didn't solve the problem. Yes, both esp32s could connect to the computer, but after a short while, one of them would automatically disconnect and reconnect, repeating this action over and over again.

Give the Nimble-Arduino 1.5 branch a go.

Nimble-Arduino 1.5, the issue remains.

Any update?

Even though I have two different vid pid esp cards, I can't connect the second card while one is paired (even when it's not connected). I have to unpair the first one first.

I have been playing with PlatformIO, as I ran into problems with funky library versions issues in other problems(at least I did think I was, but it was GPIO differences with different ESP32 boards). I was wondering if anybody would like to test the firmware builds that work for me, not just the source code or PlatformIO project. Try and rule out local library problems.

Also wondering, how many people facing this problem is local to Widows host OS? I have tried on multiple OSX versions and platforms (x86_64/aarch64) and multiple Android devices without running into this problem. I really should test some more on Linux, I have enough of the devices near by, just none with a desktop.

Last idea for request for feedback, any suggestions on what to add into the debugging sketch that might help with insight to where or what might be the problem. Please add reason why or how the addition with be helpful in the debugging sketch.

Finally got around to doing the PlatformIO builds and uploads - https://gitlab.com/leet/ble-gamepad-collection/-/tree/main/platformio?ref_type=heads

I have included my ESP32-C3-mini binaries, no GPIOs used with only battery level changing.

Let's see if this helps anybody. Not sure what else we can try and track down this odd problem.
