DirectInput to XInput wrapper

Universal Control Remapper [Alpha]

A utility for reordering and hiding DirectInput controllers

DirectInput interface for XInput controllers

The ULTIMATE Windows controller remapper. Any input device in, any virtual controller out: Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo, flight sticks, wheels, third-party gamepads, MIDI, keyboard+mouse, VR, NFC. Built on SDL3, HIDMaestro, HidHide, and .NET 10.

Windows kernel-mode driver for controlling access to various input devices.

A small DirectInput to Xinput wrapper

A dll module that is designed to improve compatibility in games using DirectInput 1-7 (dinput.dll) by converting all API calls to their equivalent DirectInput 8 (dinput8.dll) ones. This allows older games to be able to use newer tools and wrappers written for DirectInput 8.

Virtual game controllers for Windows that show up as real hardware to every API: DirectInput, XInput, SDL3, browser Gamepad, WGI/GameInput. Byte-exact VID/PID and HID descriptor per profile. 228 profiles across 32 vendors. HID PID 1.0 force feedback, hot-plug, multi-controller. Pure user mode: no kernel driver, no EV cert, no reboots.

Re-implementation of Gamepad APIs such as XInput over SDL3 akin to Steam Input

Python mouse and keyboard input automation for Windows using Direct Input.

A simple, cross platform lightweight single-header gamepad library for handling controller input. With C89 support.

DirectInput/Xinput hotplug emulation wrapper
