sys-con

A Nintedo Switch sysmodule for third-party controller support. No man-in-the-middle required!

[Switch FW 5.0.0+]

Description

This sysmodule aims to provide complete functionality for most popular game controllers not supported by Nintendo Switch. At the current moment, only USB connection is supported.

This app is missing a lot of features. For more information, see the issues page.

⚠ I can't support your generic 3rd party HID controller yet.

It is a limitation of the firmware and I'm looking to work around it.

⚠ If you get the error 2003-0008 (0x1003):

You're running too many sysmodules. Disable other memory demanding sysmodules like sys-ftpd or ldn_mitm.

⚠ If you have a second-generation Dualshock 4:

You need to go to sdmc:/config/sys-con/config_global.ini and change the value of use_dualshock_2nd_generation from false to true.

Install

Grab the latest zip from the releases page. Extract it in your SD card and boot/reboot your switch.

Config

sys-con comes with a config folder located at sdmc:/config/sys-con/. It contains options for adjusting stick/trigger deadzone, as well as remapping inputs. For more information, see example.ini in the same folder. All changes to the files will be updated in real time.

Building (For developers)

The sysmodule uses the latest release of libnx, grabbed from pacman.

To build it, go to the project directory and enter the command make to build a release of sys-con (will be stored in out/), or make clean to clean the project of any build files.
