About

Enables reading of Xbox gamepads.
Note that this provider cannot stop a game from seeing the state of the xbox pad.
If you need to "remap" (Change how a game sees a physical xbox controller) xbox controllers, this is currently not possible with UCR.
The workaround is to use a Playstation 4 controller for your physical controller, which can be hidden from the game, then use the ViGEm provider to create a virtual xbox controller.

Installation Requirements

Installation Procedure

None

What is Supported

Reading of all input

What is Not Supported

  • Altering how an application (eg a game) sees the state of the controller (ie you cannot "Block" a game from seeing the input).
    The current advised workaround is to use a Playstation 4 controller for your physical controller, which can be hidden from the game, then use the ViGEm provider to create a virtual xbox controller.
    An alternative might be to use a Titan device, or use X360ce
    This also means that no, it is not possible to stop the Xbox button from pulling up steam or whatever
  • It is not possible to read or alter rumble in any way
