Remarks

GAMEPAD_REPORT is used to send the desired state of a simulated controller to a development console. You will send individual states of the controller to the console using IXtfInputClient::SendGamepadReport. By doing this repeatedly you will be able to simulate a sequence of controller input on the development console. You will need to send game reports to a virtual controller created by IXtfInputClient::ConnectGamepad.
