Anyone know how to read the data from the Guitar Hero controller's analog stick? (C++)

Wpad.h should have something for it.

WPAD.h doesn't really give any info like that.

I know that you read the nunchuk by:

               struct expansion_t data;
               WPAD_Expansion(WPAD_CHAN_0, &data);

		if (data.type == WPAD_EXP_NUNCHUK) {
			vec2b_t center = data.nunchuk.js.center;
			printf("\x1b[2;0HNunchuk X: %d     \n Nunchuk Y: %d     \n", data.nunchuk.js.pos.x - center.x, data.nunchuk.js.pos.y - center.y);
		}

Would the code be pretty much the same except for something like "data.guitar.js.pos.y"? (Which doesn't work)

In case you haven't found the answer yourself by now, It should work if you use "data.gh3" instead of "data.nunchuk". And don't forget to replace WPAD_EXP_NUNCHUK with WPAD_EXP_GUITARHERO3. Unfortunately I can't test it, since I don't have a Guitar Controller, but this should work.

struct expansion_t data;
WPAD_Expansion(WPAD_CHAN_0, &data);

if ( data.type == WPAD_EXP_GUITARHERO3 )
{
	vec2b_t center = data.gh3.js.center;
	printf("\x1b[2;0HGuitar X: %d     \n Guitar Y: %d     \n", data.gh3.js.pos.x - center.x, data.gh3.js.pos.y - center.y);
}

Thank you for the answer! Of all the things I tried, I didn't try data.gh3... <_<
