Game controller serves as a vibrator

I just created a basic software tool to manage the force feedback of a gamepad on a PC (Windows). I tested it with the Logitech RumblePad 2, but it should work with any device that supports force feedback.

The program operates in two modes: In timer mode, you can set random timing and vibration intensity for both motors. In display mode, the tool captures color from a specific screen pixel to toggle the motors on or off. This allows “remote” control via applications like ICQ. Both modes can run at the same time. The program also works alongside other software that launches external apps. You can check the “Autostart” box and set an autorun duration using randomization similar to the timers. On subsequent runs, it will launch automatically and close after a specified number of seconds. Alternatively, you can add a number (representing seconds) to the command line to start it in “active” mode. I think this could be helpful for others here, so I’m sharing it:) Ensure your game controller driver is installed. Windows 7’s default driver oddly lacks force feedback support compared to Windows XP, though I am not entirely certain of the details.
