SISR ✂️
Steam Input System Redirector SISR (pronounced "scissor") redirects Steam Input configurations to the system level (localhost or network). SISR takes controllers it receives from Steam (via Steam Input) and forwards them as emulated but more compatible controllers (indistinguishable from real hardware) to the OS. This approach makes SISR unique for controller rebinding tools as it uses the established Steam Input system and gives access to it's full feature set, supports every controller Steam supports, and provides access to thousands of community configurations (web-browsable on SteamInputDB). It can be used to circumvent issues with games and applications that do not support Steam Input or otherwise pose challenges, like (but not limited to):- Games with aggressive anti-cheat systems
- Emulators
- Windows Store games/apps
- Games with broken Steam Input support
[!WARNING]Highly experimental work in progress. Everything is subject to change and may or may not work. Expect bugs, crashes, and missing features.
[!IMPORTANT]You do get the full functionality of SteamInput, _without having to launch your games from Steam_ For this Steam must still be running in the background, though. Please read the introduction post before you get started.
