Dear #Valve, #RPCS3, and #ShadPS4 people, could you please talk to each other? Why can’t I use one of you with another one of you?
I want either for #Steam to output a DirectInput gamepad (DualShock/Sense, Switch Pro) or for those emulators to support #SteamInput. That way, we can use any gamepad with gyro and touch pads.
I don’t want to spend half the price¹ of a console on a PlayStation compatible “Pro” gamepad for, like, the three games I want to play. :/
¹ − Now it’s a third, but still.

Haptics is also not working on the new Steam Controller. It's definitely an issue with the ETS game, not the controller itself. The devs are too lazy to fix it.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Steam Controller was launched with great fanfare on May 4, 2026, it's a good time to share our first impressions of playing Randy & Manilla with one we received. The game works very well with the Steam Controller, is identical to Steam Deck, and its default Steam Input configuration replicates the setup we configured for the game on controllers: The big problem arises when you want to play the game outside of Steam, as it doesn't work via Xinput and relies...

I love extensive coverage for the gyro functionality in this video
It turned out to be macOS Tahoe regression (probably).
Was rumble never working with SteamInput in CrossOver on macOS when a DualSense is connected via Bluetooth? I'm not sure. But in CrossOver v26 I have to use a wired connection for rumble to work.

Gyro to Mouse aiming is nice! It brings minor UI flickering issue, no idea if it fixed in actual game (probably not?)
