Comment on [Leak] Steam Controller 2 render thumbnail leaked in SteamVR drivers
DualPad@lemmy.one 1 week agoI use the Steam Controller for games like Doom Eternal, Left 4 Dead 2, Spin Rhythm XD, The Finals, etc.
Using steam input is a requirement to get the most out of it.
This is my basic approach for most games.
- Mapping mouse to touchpad and adjusting sensitivity to 180
- Mapping mouse (beta) to gyro and adjusting sensitivity until 90 degree turn of the controller turns in game camera 675 degrees for first person/450 for third person
- Setting up a dpad modeshift on right touchpad click and inverting outer ring so I can touchpad output 5 different actions depending on if I click up, down, left, right, center as opposed to only a solitary single click action. If I need more I set up a chord so holding left grip shifts the same actions into another set of 5 inputs.
- Setting movement to left pad and and setting an outer ring sprint bind on it and mapping crouch/slide/dash actions on click
I saved the template for gamepad bindings for games that support mixed input and full mouse and keyboard for ones I don’t. So I don’t have to go through the whole thing all the time. I just apply my template and then just switch the bindings around and adjust the sensitivity.

Wow, this is great! Thanks! I’m actually excited to pair it up with my Steam Deck for the first time.

Checking the configs I have uploaded and another game I have is Spin Rhythm XD if you have it. It’s named “Pad and Gyro for Steam Controller” in the community config. The gyro is set to activate on right pad touch, but I recommend switching it to always on.
I might go and upload my left 4 dead 2 config too when I have time since that’s a game lot of people have. You may need to lower the gyro sensitivity if you aren’t used to using it.
