Newtonsoft.Json json handling

As the people above have already stated, switch to System.Text.Json. After that, you can incorporate something similar to this:

            string JsonContent = File.ReadAllText("put file path here");
            var deserializedContent = JsonSerializer.Deserialize<RoomData>(JsonContent);

            string JsonContent = File.ReadAllText("put file path here");
            var deserializedContent = JsonSerializer.Deserialize<RoomData>(JsonContent);

[✅] Receiving Game Controller Input while Minimized (WinForms C#) | Repost

UPDATE: @186 days until 🎃 @Yawnder - [▰▰▰▰▱] @Buddy, Citizen of Pluto I apologize for the mass ping, but since you three were helping me, I owe a thank you. I've found my solution in the form of using the SharpDX.XInput nuget package. The following usage has resulted in success, and the messagebox shows up regardless of whether or not I am focused:

        private Gamepad _gamepad;
        private Controller _controller;

        private async void T_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            _controller = new Controller(UserIndex.One);
            if (_controller.IsConnected)
            {
                _controller.GetState(out var state);
                var dpadUp = state.Gamepad.Buttons.HasFlag(GamepadButtonFlags.DPadUp);
                if (dpadUp) Log("Hi bro it worked");
            }
            else await Log("not connected");
        }

        private Gamepad _gamepad;
        private Controller _controller;

        private async void T_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            _controller = new Controller(UserIndex.One);
            if (_controller.IsConnected)
            {
                _controller.GetState(out var state);
                var dpadUp = state.Gamepad.Buttons.HasFlag(GamepadButtonFlags.DPadUp);
                if (dpadUp) Log("Hi bro it worked");
            }
            else await Log("not connected");
        }

ds4windows does something similar but their entire process is vastly different since it's translating playstation input into xbox input
