Gaming controller

Open Lorestan00 opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Not an issue just needs some clarifications can XT mapper be used as mapping software for android gaming controller? I was looking for a free open source mapping software essentially something like Mantis pro but without paid/subscription/ad's

Can I use this?

Some buttons on gamepads can be mapped, but not any axes/thumbsticks.

Thanks for your message. Any plans to extend the mappers usage so it can be used for gaming? There are no open source options out there

There is TouchMapper: https://github.com/Shyri/TouchMapper

Well I don't have a gamepad to test on, maybe in the future. But I think that it's better to make a separate application for gamepads. XtMapper was built for keyboard and mouse, adding gamepad support requires major changes. I'm not sure how to add proper gamepad support without cluttering the UI and adding to the complexity of the existing code-base.
