You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    Hello developers! Recently, I have been trying to implement controller vibration into my Roblox game, but when I use the events :IsVibrationSupported() or :isMotorSupported() with the given arguments, it always returns false. I’m a macOS user and I installed Windows on my Mac using BootCamp in order to update the controller’s firmware and check if vibration was on. Is there a way that I can get the wireless Xbox controller with Bluetooth to vibrate?
  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    When I plug in my controller with USB cable, it simply vibrates. It doesn’t turn on or start working. Is there something I am missing?
  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    I updated my controller’s firmware and checked if vibration was turned on. Even though I can’t test it myself, I’m sure that it works with players when they playtest it.

Help is appreciated…

Nvm, figured out that vibrations work on all devices except Mac (cause it’s not supported)

I downloaded Windows on my Mac, updated its firmware, and tested it there and now it works.

We are also working on fixing it for Mac.

Oh, thank you! I have been able to add controller vibration to my Roblox games and I will get some people to playtest it and see if they work.
