Gyro aim w/ Switch Pro Controller

[IanMcMian]

I have not found many threads on this but I cannot get gyro aim to work with my Pro Controller. Is this a DS5 only feature or is Steam being weird?

[shut up shiftman]

lol for real you can't just play the game without trying to cheat??

[IanMcMian]

uh how tf is that cheating

[IanMcMian]

like what, you can use a controller or you can use a mouse but if you use a controller in a way that's similar to a mouse that's cheating? lmao lol

ppl been cheating with ds4 windows since years, you dont trust me? google it. they are able to manipulate the recoil at the point there is no recoil anymore. so i dont care what you say

Do you know what a gyro is?

Lmao if thats possible GG; Your Aim should be like an Aimbot because you have FULL Aim controll and no resistance of any Surface with that

Gyro aiming is very good when I have tried it the past. But only as suplimental to stick aim and while ads'ing. Haven't tried it in a long time though. Should disable aim assist if you have it on but I doubt that's the case

meanwhile normal controller players already have an insane auto aim

It’s a feature of the game

Anyone have a fix?

[CC77]

Right click game in library
Properties
Controller
Disable steam input
worked for PS4 controller

[IanMcMian]

CC77 that did not work for this. It would not recongnize the controller. Guess I need to get a PS4 controller

Nintendo Switch Pro controller should have working gyro aim with or without Steam Input enabled but Steam Input is really bug ridden just now. Native gyro support being recently added to game means we as Steam users can choose where to enable and configure gyro aim. Just do not enable both options, just use one gyro/controller mapping software method.

Often Steam Input being enabled for game means i have no working right joystick in game when using xbone gen 3 type controller but just restarting game fixes.


We need to remember that if operating system can not see controller we can not expect game or Steam Input to work like expected with controller. How does your operating system see your controller? i.e. is it detected and working like expected at operating system level?. Windows users can right click controller in devices and printers (legacy control panel) > properties > test


Have to admit after watching JGOD's vid on gyro controller settings in MW2/WZ2 i cant help noticing many streamers are seeing PS button prompts are being shown in game.

That video explains and demonstrates what we can or should expect from gyro setting MW2/WZ2 but never mentions Steam Input having gyro aim for very nearly a decade now. All we need is a controller with gyro/acceleratometer, and PS controller is most widely used gyro controller on PC. There are many Steam Input bugs causing the need for PS type controller users to switch Steam Input off and/or do hackish things like edit steam config files to get a working controller in Stream games.



If operating system and steam input are detecting controller you should be able to configure gyro settings for game config through Steam Input with the gyro settings in game settings switched off. i.e. when game doesnt detect controller after disabling Steam Input game configs for game like CC77 suggested.

Hopefully, somebody will share a Guide on how to use controller gyro/acceleratometer in game settings and explains how Steam Input supports this separately outwith game settings in game.
