    adaptable controller use with one arm?


    My best friend had a stroke at 36 and only has use of his right arm and leg so I bought the new adaptable controller for him and the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro Joystick as it said it was supported and has a little joystick on the top so I thought this would
    solve his problems as he could use that for the left stick and move the joystick for the right stick. Unfortunately this is not the case as the little joystick is not supported plus the buttons on the joystick are not remappable so hes still not able to play
    games and you can imagine his disappointment after all the hype about this allowing disabled people to play games again.

    So my question is how can this be used to allow people with the use of one arm to play games again?

    :)

    Each button has its own USB port which then allows you to choose upon multiple different options to plug in and use

    If I understand it correctly, the adaptive controller has connectors on the back that allow access to every possible Xbox controller function/button. This allows someone to hook up other off the shelf and/or custom made peripherals according to the needs
    of the person. That may also require modifying parts (eg add a custom wiring harness) to connect those other parts into each applicable control jack if the native configuration isn't already suitable for the purpose you are trying to achieve.

    This YouTube video shows some of the different types of applications of the adaptive controller:

    It may require some experimentation and customization to come up with something that your friend can use.

    Good luck!

    how does that help someone with the use of one arm and leg use both joysticks, it doesn`t so therefore he cannot play the games, you sold this as allowing everybody with disabilities to play games again but it doesn`t. if the software allowed the little
    stick on top to work as the left stick and allowed you to remap the buttons it would solve this issue or is this not possible?
