Guides¶
Each guide walks one task from start to finish. Pick the thing you want to do. Every page assumes nothing beyond an installed PadForge and a connected device, except Remote Link, which needs PadForge on both PCs.
| Guide | What you end up with |
|---|---|
| Import a Steam config | A community Steam Input profile running in PadForge, every supported setting editable |
| Start from a starter profile | A ready-made genre archetype saved as an ordinary profile you can edit |
| Phone as a controller | Your phone's browser acting as a touch gamepad |
| Motion aiming | Gyro-to-mouse or gyro-to-stick aiming with calibration and an engage button |
| Macros | Multi-step sequences on a button, with timing, loops, and layer scoping |
| Shift Layers | A second (or eighth) set of mappings behind a held or toggled button |
| Radial and Grid Menus | On-screen menus driven by a stick or touchpad |
| Per-game Profiles | Mappings that switch when a game gains focus, on a controller combo, or on a command from your launcher |
| Remote Link | A controller on one PC driving games on another, on your network or across the internet |
| Steering with any stick | Winding-wheel steering on a stick, d-pad, or motion |
| Screen readers and the keyboard | PadForge spoken by NVDA, and the keys for the custom controls |
| Switching from another tool | A setup from Steam Input, DS4Windows, reWASD or SimHub rebuilt in PadForge, with a way back |
