It

ok do you know why this appen
? the game try to grab the usb directly without triyng to fully use the lib
?
A

3/31/24, 9:40 AM
The real controller works
A
antheas
•
3/31/24, 9:40 AM
But since handheld Daemon does hid emulation only instead of the full usb
A
antheas

3/31/24, 9:40 AM
The game does not see jt
A
antheas

3/31/24, 9:41 AM
There are a lot of little quirks like that
A
antheas
•
3/31/24, 9:41 AM
Most games support dualsense in Bluetooth mode fortunately
A
antheas
•
3/31/24, 9:42 AM
And that
's emulated better

3/31/24, 9:46 AM

3/31/24, 9:48 AM
but if the game act weirdly with emulated usb the idea of giving directly the controller can
'
"t help in some way
?

We

Emulation and real dualsense controllers
A
antheas
•
3/31/24, 9:52 AM
Real dualsense controllers sometimes don
't get recognized due to quirks
A
antheas
•
3/31/24, 9:53 AM
If a real dualsense controller works in Bluetooth though handheld Daemon will work too
A
antheas
•
3/31/24, 9:53 AM
Because both appear as hid devices
A
antheas
•
3/31/24, 9:53 AM
In USB mode though some games use lib USB so handheld daemon doesn
't work as it doesn
't go down to that level
A
antheas
•
3/31/24, 9:54 AM
For that reason by default handheld daemon emulates a Bluetooth controller
F
Firefloc
•
3/31/24, 9:54 AM
ok i
'm understanding I think
and with handled daemon the controller not work in the witcher 3 that only work with libusb
A

3/31/24, 9:55 AM

Handheld Daemon is used for fixing up the handheld controllers that appear as xinput
A
antheas
•
3/31/24, 10:01 AM
Because the xinput spec never had space for extra buttons and gyro
A
antheas
•
3/31/24, 10:02 AM
The only standardized controller that does is the dualsense
A
antheas
•
3/31/24, 10:02 AM
And after that the switch pro controller
A
antheas
•
3/31/24, 10:02 AM
But that one is even less supported and has even worse glypbs
