Turn off Gamepad screen with a configurable button similar to Padcon.
Enhancement Request
Would like to be able to turn off the gamepads screen to save battery while playing with friends. While playing on my own I can just use Padcon but for multiplayer we use Hid to Vpad to use our DS4 controllers as well.
Unfortunately we cannot load both patches at the same time so it would be great if the screen off could be implemented into your app.
Thanks very much.
This is exactly what I wanted to do while using hid to vpad! This way, you can potentially create a true pro controller experience where you're able to turn off the gamepad's screen. The way Padcon works is it turns off the gamepad's screen, but not it's button functionality. So it isn't truly turning it off completely. Leaving the screen on bugs the hell out of me haha!
I could add padcon to HID to VPAD, that wouldn't be a problem. Now with Settings we would also have an easy way to enable/disable the feature
That would be absolutely awesome mate. Thank you very much.
One last thing. If it is not going to be configurable which buttons it is assigned to can you make it so both L3 and R3 have to be pressed down. Some games use R3.
Thanks again.
But the mapping shouldn't be an issue if you're using HID to VPAd anyway? I can do L3+R3 though
I was just thinking of when using the default profiles. If you just made it a toggle in settings and it was hard coded to R3 then it would conflict with games that use that button. If it was configurable then this wouldn't be a problem. I can't think of anything tho that requires both L3 and R3 to be pressed the same time so maybe that could be the default even if it is configurable.
