Documentation now describes the .NET Framework 4.8 stack (was .NET 8): - README build prerequisites + framework-dependent/no-runtime-install note, test count 136 -> 241. - PLAN.md architecture diagram, stack decision (with PolySharp/shims note), suite total 136 -> 241. - deploy/README-DEPLOY.txt: app is net48 framework-dependent (4.8 is in-box on Win10/11), and build prerequisites. Also migrate the three tools (RioJoySmokeTest, RioSerialMonitor, XcfRegionExtract) to net48 so they keep building against the now-net48 RioJoy.Core (a net8 project cannot reference a net48 one). Added PolySharp + System.Memory/System.Text.Json shims and replaced net-core-only APIs (string.Contains/IndexOf with comparison, Array.Fill, generic Enum.IsDefined, int.TryParse(span)). All three build clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# RIOJoy
|
||
|
||
Modern Windows 10/11 interface between the cockpit **RIO** (Remote Input/Output)
|
||
board and Windows, as a virtual **joystick / keyboard / mouse** — the successor
|
||
to the legacy vJoy-based app, with **no vJoy dependency**.
|
||
|
||
The RIO has 72 digital inputs and outputs (lighted buttons) and 5 analog axes
|
||
(joystick X/Y, throttle, left pedal, right pedal), connected over RS-232 at
|
||
9600 8N1. RIOJoy exposes these to games that don't natively know about the
|
||
cockpit hardware, with **per-game profiles**. (The native games — Firestorm,
|
||
Red Planet — talk to the RIO directly and do not use this app.)
|
||
|

## Building
|
||
|
||
Requires the **.NET SDK** (8.0 or newer) plus the **.NET Framework 4.8
|
||
targeting/developer pack**, on Windows. The apps target **.NET Framework 4.8**,
|
||
which is in-box on every Windows 10/11 machine — so deployed builds are
|
||
framework-dependent and need **no runtime install** on the target. The driver
|
||
builds separately with the **WDK** (see [`driver/README.md`](driver/README.md)).
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
dotnet build RioJoy.sln -c Release
|
||
dotnet test RioJoy.sln
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Status
|
||
|
||
Phases 1–5 are implemented and tested (241 unit tests). The `RioGamepad` virtual
|
||
HID driver is built (KMDF + VHF), **test-signed, installed, and verified**: it
|
||
enumerates in `joy.cpl`, and the C# HID feeder (`DeviceIoControl` →
|
||
`RioGamepad.sys`) drives its axes, buttons, and hat end-to-end (see
|
||
[`tools/RioJoySmokeTest`](tools/RioJoySmokeTest/)). The C# side covers the serial
|
||
+ RIO protocol core, input mapping + output routing, axis calibration + plasma
|
||
display, the tray app + profiles (JSON config, `RIO.ini` importer, three-state
|
||
auto-switch), and the HID report packer that matches the driver's wire format.
|
||
Remaining work is **on-cabinet** (real RIO serial/axis/plasma/auto-switch
|
||
verification) plus packaging (Phase 6) and the profile editor + overlay
|
||
generator (Phase 7). See [`docs/PLAN.md`](docs/PLAN.md) for the full roadmap.
