JoyShockMapper VS JoyShockMapper

Here's jsm if you were serious Joyshockmapper

The paper you linked is more of a conceptual explanation for design and implementation of systems into games. To learn how to use JSM itself there is a guide for its functions on its GitHub page. The games database may also provide you with some ready made scripts for you to use and edit to your liking.

There DS4Windows, Steam Input & JoyShockMapper. The easiest way to setup gyro would be DS4Windows, JoyShockMapper would be a involved(relatively) but offers way more customization. You can grab a community config for gyro from steam if you choose steam input.

There's also this https://github.com/Electronicks/JoyShockMapper but i'm not sure if it would work with stadia controllers it might work with the dual shock ones

Non-trackball gaming solution: Use gyro on PS4/5 controller with JoyShockMapper. If flickstick doesn't float your boat, maybe a Steam Controller if you can find one for a reasonable price, with trackball emulation enabled it's basically a thumb ball, and when your thumb gets sore start using gyro.

Is it possible to use gyro aiming + flick stick with any xCloud games, or are we forced to use the analog sticks? I have a PS4 controller (i.e. it has a gyro) and tried using JoyShockMapper, but this doesn't seem to work. It modifies my mouse pointer but not my in-game aiming. Has anyone had success with this or an alternative gyro aiming software package when playing on xCloud? Thanks.

Using the software JoyShockMapper's "motion stick" and the simple config below, I bound pitch and roll to WASD. I was able to just use it exactly like I use the 3DRudder. This software can create a virtual controller, so it is also possible to output analog joystick motion. You can map yaw to something as well, although gyro controllers generally lack a magnetometer and yaw might drift easily.

I have also heard really good things about JoyShockMapper, which is both free and open source.

I been doin this a couple years now. I bluetooth the left one only and map it with JoyShockMapper. Like Steam HUD it has a lot of features using gyro, double tap binds and chorded binds.

Thankfully, Jibb already redirects the newer fork if you look at the Release page or literally the first Paragraph of README.md. So unlike DS4Windows (which took 6-7+ years to tell folks to move over to Ryochan4 fork...which said fork been discontinued and someone else took over. Welcome to FOSS. 😋), it should be easy enough to head over to Electronicks fork.

I don't have any experience with it, but have you tried JoyShockMapper?

These days I just use the setup in ds4windows as it's easier to use with non steam games. JibbSmart's Joyshockmapper is intresting. Particularly his flick stick implentation. Steam added this later but I couldn't get it to work the same in steam when I tried it. I tend to use a controller when I'm in a low effort mood though so I haven't messed around with it in a while. If you are intrested in using gyro you should give his channel a look he's got some great ideas.

DualSense Controller Support has already been added since JSM 2.1.0,

you could try setting them up manually in the emulator (not sure if that works), or you could use jsm aka joyshockmapper https://github.com/JibbSmart/JoyShockMapper

If you can't figure out how to configure the controller in Steam, browse the top community configurations for TF2 and the controller. It's probable that someone has already figured it out and shared the result. If you want to configure it in a way which isn't possible in Steam, you can use other software like JoyShockMapper or DS4Windows.
