Steam Input Lease 0.1.0

First standalone release. Stops Steam Input from holding your controllers while a game runs, so the game can use them directly, and hands them back to Steam when the game exits.

Install

1. Exit Steam completely.
2. Extract XInput1_4.dll and steam-input-lease.exe into your Steam folder, next to steam.exe.
3. Start Steam, then set a game's launch options to:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steam-input-lease.exe" -- %command%

README.txt in the zip covers non-Steam games, shortcuts outside Steam and uninstalling.

Notes

• If the controllers cannot be taken from Steam, the game still starts normally, and steam-input-lease.log next to the launcher says why.
• Windows x64 only.
