Navigating to Controller Settings

To navigate to the Controller Settings menu, click "Controller" on the main menu screen.

This will bring you to the Controller Settings menu.

Calibration

Quick Calibration

If you need to perform a quick calibration of your controller, begin by selecting the "Quick Calibration" button.

Next, follow the on-screen prompts with the sticks on your controller.

You will first move both sticks up and to the left and then hold them in that position until the on-screen prompt changes.

You will then move both sticks down and to the right and then hold them in that position until the on-screen prompt changes.

Your controller should now be calibrated.

In-depth Calibration

If you wish to perform a more advanced calibration of your controller, begin by selecting the "In-depth Calibration" button.

Next, follow the on-screen prompts with the sticks on your controller.

Begin by moving both sticks straight up and then holding them in that position until the on-screen prompt changes.

Next, move both sticks straight down and then hold them in that position until the on-screen prompt changes.

Next, move both sticks to the left and then hold them in that position until the on-screen prompt changes.

Next, move both sticks to the right and then hold them in that position until the on-screen prompt changes.

Your controller should now be calibrated.

Clear Calibration

If you encounter odd behavior with your controller after calibration, clearing your calibration data is a good place to start.

Clicking "Clear Calibration" will delete your calibration data.

Deadzones

A stick's center deadzone value is the radius around the center of the stick where input is not registered - a "dead zone".

To adjust your controller's stick center deadzone, begin by clicking on the white text field, as shown below.

Next, enter your desired value between 0 and 1.

Finally, click "Set" to save the new deadzone setting.

If you wish to return your deadzone settings to default, simply click "Clear" for both stick settings.

Mapping

The Mapping page allows users to custom map inputs to suit their individual preferences.

Custom Input Mapping

To add or change the mapping of a function to an input, begin by selecting the function you wish to map an input to.

After selecting the function you wish to map an input to, a user interface will appear with three options:

1. Activate the control you with to map for [Function]

   1. Maps the entered input to the function

   
2. Backspace to Clear

   1. Clears all inputs currently mapped to the indicated function

   
3. Esc to Cancel

   1. Closes the function mapping user interface without making any changes

Restoring Default Mapping

If you wish to restore input mapping to default, simply click the "Restore Defaults" button.
