sadx-input-mod is a mod for SADX PC that replaces the default DirectInput polling with SDL2 to enable more robust gamepad support. It allows the use of DirectInput and XInput controllers simultaneously.
- Configurable deadzones per analog stick
- Configurable rumble intensity
- Per-controller rumble (vanilla SADX only allows rumble for P1's controller)
- Fixed right analog stick (first person camera bug) for XInput and some DirectInput controllers
- Enables extended Dreamcast buttons C, D, and Z, mapped to LB (PSx L1), Back (PS1-PS3 Select, PS4 Share), and RB (PSx R1) respectively.
- Configurable gamepad controls using SDL controller maps
- Configurable keyboard controls
Use the SADX Launcher to configure controls and create controller mappings.
This mod's configuration consists of two parts: SDL controller mappings and general mod settings such as rumble and keyboard controls.
- To make the mod recognize your SDL controller mapping(s), place
gamecontrollerdb.txtin the mod's root folder (mods/sadx-input-mod). To create an SDL mapping for your controller, you can use the SDL2 Gamepad Tool. - You can use the
Configure...button in SADX Mod Manager to edit the mod's configuration manually. To configure the mod without the Mod Manager, create a file calledconfig.iniin the mod's root folder (mods/sadx-input-mod) and add the sections below.
Where N is the controller slot to configure. You can use and configure up to 8 controllers.
