Hi Pierre, A couple of weeks ago I needed to write a device driver for a standard steering wheel controller and pedals. Once I got over the stumbling block of getting Softimage plugins compiling correctly on Windows, it wasn't too hard. It was just a case of combining the mouse example device driver code with the DirectInput Joystick example code (which you can find here: https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsdesktop/DirectInput-Samples-8ac6f5e3)
Most of the hassle was to get the compiler to play nice with handling linking of all the libraries.
