Virtual Controller Malfunction Report

[yeyeyeye]

Hello, I have encountered some issues while using Rewasd. When I enable the virtual controller, there is a problem with the signal output in the center area of the virtual joystick. It doesn't seem coherent.

My description might not be very accurate, and I don't know how to depict this phenomenon in detail. Therefore, I recorded a video and uploaded it to YouTube. I will post the link below. The video shows a comparison of the joystick's performance before and after enabling the Rewasd virtual controller.

As shown in the video, when the virtual controller is not enabled, the joystick signal input is normal, and the recorded points of the joystick signal can be connected into a continuous, unbroken curve.

However, when I enable the virtual controller, the signals in the center area of the joystick (approximately between 0% and 10%) become scattered and discontinuous.

I believe I don't need to elaborate on the severe impact this issue has on in-game operations. This means that when you enable the virtual controller, it becomes almost impossible to aim accurately. I noticed this phenomenon as soon as I enabled the virtual controller. Due to its severity, I am requesting a fix for this issue.

I am not a native English speaker, so my Rewasd interface is in a different language. I am not sure what the differences are between the Chinese and English versions of the Rewasd interface, but the overall functionality should be the same. I hope this won't cause too much trouble in addressing the issue, right?

Hey there!

Could you please go to the Output device settings, check "Make the stick square (barrel effect)," then select Half square and see if the same behavior occurs with this setting?

Hello, even after switching to the stick square (barrel effect), then selecting Half square, this issue still persists. I can confirm that it's not a problem with my computer, as I've tried reWASD on multiple devices, and they all have the same issue.
ReWASD didn't have this issue before. It seems that the problem started occurring sometime after the 2023 update, which added support for physical controllers. I'm not sure about the details, but it definitely seems to be related to that.

Thanks for the report. We were able to reproduce it and will work on a fix.
