Automatic Profile Switching Between Devices

[Antsa]

I am currently trying to make different Rewasd profiles for different devices but automatic profile switching won't allow this.

My ideal scenario would be that I had a device for example "Xbox Elite Controller" that has profiles for a mouse and keyboard for a desktop, a native gamepad for Steam, and a virtual gamepad for Geforce Now.

- I can make a Profile "Xbox Elite" that has Configs "Native Gamepad" and "Gamestreaming" under it.
- I Can apply each of these configs to a Slot 1-3 which I can manually change

So far everything is good but when I create a new Profile for "Rog Ally" that has similar configs for desktop use, native gamepad, and virtual gamepad, I can't assign these configs automatically to change with the according app as Rewasd gives an error that "Desktop" profile is already detecting this app.

Is Rewasd designed to assign only each Profile and not each Config to be automatically changing with Auto Detect apps?

Thanks

It sounds like you're really getting into Rewasd's capabilities, and I can see the potential difficulties with setting up several profiles for different devices. From what you've mentioned, it appears that Rewasd is more focused on profile-level assignments than individual configuration-level automated switching.

Your ideal scenario of easily switching configurations for different inputs sounds fantastic! Have you considered contacting Rewasd's help team or checked their forums? They may have some ideas or workarounds for handling multiple configurations under a single profile, or they may recommend a solution to accomplish your aim. It could also help them understand what users want in future improvements. Good luck, and I hope you find a solution that suits you!

This should work in the following scenario:
1. You apply a config to controller A that is not grouped with another device, say controller B via Autodetect. You add autoapply by selecting active processes.
2. For controller B, you create a separate config (with the same mappings, if needed) in a separate profile. And also separately apply the config to it by selecting from the list of active processes the same process as in the first case.
I hope I understood you correctly.
