Wiki: add Gyro / Shift Layers / Impulse Triggers, expand Mappings + Macros for 3.2 features New pages - Gyro: dedicated tab covering calibration, sensitivity, response shaping, engage gates, reference frames, per-(device, slot) persistence, per-source GyroSensitivity multiplier. - Shift Layers: per-slot mapping tables that activate while a button / chord / axis is engaged. Five activation modes, three activator kinds, per-layer color + emoji, Win11 flyout, last-engaged-wins resolution. - Impulse Triggers: split out of Force Feedback since the app has it as its own Pad-page tab. Covers game-driven passthrough (Xbox + DualSense), Constant Trigger Force, Audio Bass Trigger Rumble. Updated - Home.md "New in 3.2" now covers the full 3.2.0 feature set: mapping engine rebuild, shift layers, gyro Steam Input parity, impulse triggers tab, macro custom expression, lighting additions, platform changes. - Button-and-Axis-Mappings.md: per-VC scope, multi-source rows, six combine modes + custom formula, source kinds (Direct / Incremental / Invert On Hold), Bidirectional flag, direction badges, auto-mapping extend behavior. - Macros.md: Custom Expression trigger mode (formula + variables + recipes), multi-device combos in triggers, per-entry axis options. - Force-Feedback.md: trigger-motor sections moved to Impulse Triggers; cross-link added.

v3.1.4: refresh screenshots + Xbox Series Share + per-profile asset notes

hifihedgehog committed May 10, 2026

v3.1.0: Adaptive Triggers + Lighting pages, refreshed screenshots New pages: - Adaptive-Triggers.md — seven trigger effect modes for slots with a DualSense assigned (Off, Feedback, Weapon, Vibration, Multi-Position Feedback, Slope, Multi-Position Vibration), the live effect-profile preview shape per mode, parameter semantics, and the wire-format crosswalk to the firmware's 0x01 / 0x02 / 0x06 / 0x21 / 0x26 trigger opcodes. - Lighting.md — thirteen lightbar modes for slots with a DS4 / DualSense / DualSense Edge assigned (Static, Breathing, Rainbow, palette-based Color Cycle, three Audio Pulse variants, three Audio Bands variants, two Input Reactive variants), audio sensitivity / thresholds / crossfade width, palette controls, pulse decay slider, and the Indicator LEDs card. Home.md — added a v3.1.0 callout summarizing the AT and Lighting tabs, the theme-aware icons, and the localization sweep across nine languages. Added new Tuning rows for [[Adaptive Triggers]] and [[Lighting]]. Trigger-Deadzones.md — Related Pages now links to [[Adaptive Triggers]] since they share the same physical triggers. capture.ps1 / convert-screenshots.ps1 — capture pipeline learns the new Adaptive Triggers and Lighting tabs (PlayStation slot only) and the PNG → JPG converter maps them into adaptive-triggers.jpg / lighting.jpg for both PadForge/screenshots and padforge.org/assets. images/ — refreshed all 16 screenshots from a v3.1.0 build with a DualSense assigned to a virtual slot so the AT/Lighting tabs are visible. Theme-aware icon changes are now reflected on the sticks / triggers / extended-schematic captures.

Deep v3 resync: vJoy purge, Microsoft→Xbox terminology, current features Sweep residual v2 vJoy / ViGEmBus content out of user-facing pages and replace stale dev-page class names with the v3 unified HIDMaestro pipeline. Restore correct family-name terminology (Xbox / PlayStation / Extended, not Microsoft / Sony — those enum identifiers exist purely for v2 PadForge.xml back-compat per the in-source enum comment). User-facing pages (Home, Dashboard, Controller-Slots, Devices, Settings, Driver-Management, Troubleshooting, Force-Feedback, Web-Controller, 3D-and-2D-Visualization, 2D-Overlay-System, Installation, Stick-Deadzones, Trigger-Deadzones, Input-Precision): - vJoy slot type, "vJoy driver limit", and vJoy install steps removed - Troubleshooting: "vJoy Phantom Controllers" section deleted (v2 N²-bug, doesn't exist in HIDMaestro), other vJoy sections rewritten for HM - Force-Feedback: HID PID 1.0 framing for Extended; new Sony Report 0x01 rumble passthrough section - 3D-and-2D-Visualization: PlayStation touchpad preview (live finger spheres) and click-to-map TouchpadClick documented - 2D-Overlay-System: touchpad highlight visual spec (sampled colors) - Web-Controller: DS4 layout button-11 collapse for TouchpadClick Dev pages (Architecture-Overview, Engine-Library, Build-and-Publish, HIDMaestro-Deep-Dive, Input-Pipeline, SDL3-Integration, Services-Layer, Settings-and-Serialization, Driver-Installation-Internals, ViewModels, XAML-Views, Virtual-Controllers, Button-and-Axis-Mappings): - Stale Xbox360VirtualController / DS4VirtualController / ExtendedVirtualController / VJoyRawState references replaced with the v3 unified HMaestroVirtualController + ExtendedRawState - Step 5 prose updated to HMContext.SubmitState / SubmitRawReport with Sony Report 0x01 passthrough - HIDMaestro-Deep-Dive: HM 1.1.x → 1.2.0 - Services-Layer: false claim that Extended slots reset to "Microsoft (Xbox 360) gamepad preset" replaced with the actual behavior (ProfileId = GetDefaultProfileId(type), Custom "PadForge Game Controller" for Extended) - Three broken [[vJoy Deep Dive]] links retargeted to [[HIDMaestro Deep Dive]] - Virtual-Controllers gets a top-of-page editor's note flagging it for a full hand-rewrite (the deep sections still describe deleted v2 classes) Microsoft references kept where they are real: NuGet package Microsoft.Windows.Devices.Midi2, registry paths under SOFTWARE\Microsoft\, ".NET runtime download from Microsoft", literal VirtualControllerType.Microsoft enum-value citations, MaxXbox360Slots constant name (preserved from v2), [XmlEnum("Sony")] attribute string, OpenXInput Microsoft-trademark disclaimer.

v3 wiki refresh: drop vJoy-Deep-Dive, add HIDMaestro-Deep-Dive, refresh images, rewrite Home - Home.md: rewrite for v3 — Microsoft / PlayStation / Extended / MIDI / KB+M categories, HIDMaestro replaces ViGEmBus + vJoy, OpenXInput shim filters PadForge's own slots from its own XInput view, HM-lifecycle thread-pool model + bubble-up cascade. Adds 'Powered by HIDMaestro' badge with light/dark-mode logo swap via <picture>. - HIDMaestro-Deep-Dive.md: new analogous page replacing vJoy-Deep-Dive (deleted). Documents the HM SDK surface PadForge talks to (HMContext / HMProfile / HMController), the OpenXInput filter, and the three Step 5 invariants (lifecycle off polling thread, inactivity destroy timeout, bubble-up cascade). Explicitly enumerates the v2 vJoy bugs that no longer apply. - Image refresh from 2560x1600 build, including PlayStation / Extended / MIDI / KBM slot type variants. Drops pad-vjoy-* screenshots (replaced by pad-extended-configbar + pad-playstation-configbar). - Adds the HIDMaestro logo (light + dark variants) and convert-screenshots.ps1 helper that renames + JPGs into PadForge/screenshots and padforge.org/assets.
