[h2]What’s New in DSX v3.1?[/h2]
[h3]Completely Revamped Profile System[/h3]
Profiles now save with a .dsx file extension, making them easy to manage and share right from File Explorer. Plus, they’re no longer tied to a specific device, meaning you can set up and tweak profiles without even having a controller connected.
[h3]Advanced Haptic Modes (USB ONLY)[/h3]
The haptics system got a big upgrade in v3.1.0, with new modes and more control over feedback for an even better experience:
[list]
[*]Multi-Mode Activation: You can now activate multiple haptic modes at once, combining effects for a richer feel.
[*]Touchpad to Haptics: Maps touchpad movement to haptic feedback, adding a new layer of interaction.
[*]Audio to Haptics with Channel Mapping: Link audio channels directly to the haptic feedback – if your game or app has left/right channel audio, DSX can map that to left/right haptics for a more immersive experience.
[/list]
[h3]All-in-One Controllers Page[/h3]
This is your new home for device details and settings. Here’s what’s included:
[list]
[*]Device Info and Real-Time Feedback: Get a live view of everything happening with your controller – trigger and joystick feedback, touchpad, and motion sensor data.
[*]Firmware Update Notifications: When there’s a firmware update available, you’ll see it here (you’ll still update firmware outside the app, though).
[*]General Settings Hub: Key settings like auto-idle shut-off and the new USB-only Audio System (for speaker, headset, and mic adjustments) are now right on the Controllers page.
[/list]
[h3]Custom Presets for Adaptive Triggers and LED Settings[/h3]
We’ve made it easier to save specific setups for your Adaptive Triggers and LEDs:
[list]
[*]Adaptive Trigger Presets: You can save up to 20 custom trigger setups per profile, making it super easy to switch for different games or styles.
[*]LED Presets: Just like with triggers, you can have up to 20 LED setups per profile. Perfect for setting the vibe!
[/list]
[h3]Enhanced Mod System for New and Legacy Mods[/h3]
The mod system has had a big upgrade. It’s now set up to support both DSX v2 mods and any new mods made for v3.1+, so you’ll be covered whether you’re using your old favorites or exploring fresh mods down the line. There’s a new Mod System page coming soon to make browsing and adding mods way easier.
[h3]Next-Level Input System[/h3]
You’ll find advanced options for combos where they activate like keyboard keys (Alt + Tab), button passthrough, and a turbo feature that also effects the button mappings added.
[h3]Steam Achievements and Workshop Support[/h3]
Steam achievements are fully working now, and we’re adding Steam Workshop so you can share profiles with the community in the future.
[h3]Other Awesome Updates:[/h3]
[list]
[*]Gyroscope and Accelerometer Calibration: Motion controls are set with proper passthrough for DualShock and DualSense emulations, and we’re planning adjustments for deadzones and motion-to-mouse features soon.
[*]Shortcut Actions: Quick actions for switching Adaptive Triggers presets, LED presets, switching touchpad, and joystick modes. Enabling windows screen saver, and more makes it easier to customize on the fly.
[*]Joystick to Mouse: Now you can map joystick movement to control the mouse, giving you a new way to navigate both in-game and on your desktop.
[*]Assign profiles to games in Installed Games Page, and DSX will automatically detect when a game is running to apply the correct profile.
[*]Easier Navigation and Setup: We’ve reworked the layout to make it easier to get around and set up DSX just how you like it.
[*]And a lot more small details where it matters.
