• Added stick delta acceleration options for LS and RS
• Added extra UAC Warning to Log when using SendInput event generator. Contribution by Yohoki
• Changed URL parser for link generation in LogMessageDisplay window
• Changed XInput output slot display routine. Contribution by Ygor
• Added Touchpad virtual button activation mode options. Adds ability for activation on Touchpad Touch and Touchpad Release
• Added newer possible HidHide locations to HidHide client search routine
• Updated some NuGet packages. H.NotifyIcon.Wpf, MdXaml, Nefarius.Utilities.DeviceManagement
• Updated linked ViGEmBus version to 1.21.442.0. Now listed as a stable release
• Lowered eventDispatcherThread priority to BelowNormal; Event loop primarily used for hotplug and output device plugin and removal
• Added PowerA FUSION Wired Fightpad for PS4 to known device list. Contribution by Ygov
• Added Thrustmaster eSwap Pro to known device list. Contribution by SakifX9
• Arabic language translation updated. Contribution by Ahmed
• Added reWASD and VirtualHere to new exclusion filter for virtual device check. Contribution by Nefarius
• Changed duration for multimedia timer in app. Not really used now but it would allow sleep times less than 16 ms in app
• Unfortunately had to disable virtual DS4 feedback support again. Routine only worked reliably with one controller

Hello! i am very interested about the new Delta Acceleration mechanic and would like to know more about what it does for the controller, cheers.

[StealthWei]

I tried researching everything i can about delta acceleration but to no avail, could you explain what Multiplier, max travel, min travel, easing duration, and min factor does? if thats okay. thank you~!

[StealthWei]

Can you also explain what happens if i were to do all the settings from delta acceleration to 0.01 for all, what would happen in theory? and if i were to max them all out (Multiplier to 10.00, Max travel to 1.00, min travel to 1.00, easing duration to .... seconds and min factor to 10.00? sorry i am new and i am experimenting on this and i am not good with all this terminology, and how would this affect and apply to say a platform fighter game controlling a character.

If theres a manual or guide explaining how delta acceleration, can i please have it?

Delta(Δ) is a measure of change over time (Space nerds might recognize ΔV). I believe this is an attempt to make the controller feel more like a mouse, for FPS games and such that don't feel as nice on controller. Instead of just a static multiplier (Usually called Sensitivity in games) this should feel more dynamic. Allowing for larger motions to still be fast, without making smaller motions feel like you're fighting the controller.

So,
Multiplier=How much to amplify the stick's position.
Max Travel/Min Travel = Allow for deadzones at min/max stick tilt.
Easing Duration = How long to take to ramp up to the multiplied value. Do you want it suddenly fast, or to slowly accelerate.

Give it some tries setup as a mouse in your favorite FPS. I would suggest a game with a Sniper style, so you can feel the effects while scoped in. Games with snipers REALLY suck on controller, because you are constantly fighting moving TOO much when you zoom in.

Thank you so much for the elaborate explanation as well as for going over the specifics of the settings.

Bro this is the exact thing I think I asked for many months ago and it is godly. I feel soooooooooooooo much better playing RL. Can this go even faster than 10? I NEED to try this on absolute crack mode. This is THE thing I've been wanting for soooo long. Please tell me this can be changed to go quicker and quicker. I dont know squat about coding myself or I'd be playing around with it.

I have my in game sensitivity all the way up, my deadzones dialed in, my Ds4 windows sens maxed out, AND this acceleration turned up max and its WAY better than normal, but I feel like i want even more! You're the best man, simply the best.

Always happy to see my name pop up on release notes. Even as minor as my contributions are, thanks for letting me contribute again! :D

Fun note, since working with your app, I've gained a lot more confidence in my ability, and just squashed a bug in Ryujinx Emulator, too :)

For those looking to have rumble in DS4 Mode, stay on 3.1.6 for a little longer. There is a bugfix provided by Nefarius here. If you happen to have 2 controllers, please give the fix a try and give some feedback on the bug report here. The best feedback right now would be how mixed controllers work (ds4+dualsense, ect.) .

[Destined2Live7]

Would very much like to know the same as Stealthwei what the added features for delta acceleration for LS and RS actually mean. Usually, you can hover over a setting and it gives a quick description but seeing it is now I can see why that would not be the case.

[Yohoki]

Makes the controller feel more like a mouse, for things like FPS games. Imagine a CoD style game, where you might want high sensitivity for a high recoil SMG but would also want low sensitivity for accurate sight with a zoomed in Scoped Rifle. This looks like an attempt at allowing for that kind of control.

Im getting some trouble with the lastest updates in W11 and some games, Ds4 software sees the controller but the game doesn´t.
-Batman Arkham Knight only detects the Dualshock forced as a dualshock and not as a x360 controller
-Sekiro Shadows Die Twice doesn´t detect de controller at all( tried using the Hide DS4 optin like the oldest versions but the prblem persist)
