RAWeb VS MoltenGamepad

Earlier today, an announcement was posted on Discord regarding a site update that happened yesterday, which disabled certain site features and caused delays in obtaining badges. The full text, as posted by WCopeland, is below:

Ok, some of you should look into retroachievements.

I have been messing with preseeding a debian install with the packages I need and maybe toying around with the kernel for native gamepad support. I found a project that appears to fix some of the gamepad support issue when trying to run emulated games from steam -gamepadui (passing controllers to Ryujinx or dolphin leads to disconnect issues).

I've been using MoltenGamepad (https://github.com/jgeumlek/MoltenGamepad) on Linux. It'll handle mapping all the buttons, IR, accel/gyro, nunchuck, etc. It works pretty well once you figure out the config files. I'm not sure if there's an equivalent for Windows though. IMO the a wiimote with the sensor bar works pretty good controlling the mouse for a media PC connected to your TV.

I thought of this, but I am also using FFXIV Launcher and piping that through Steam seems to break wine. MoltenGamepad seems perfect so far, but I appreciate your suggestion!

I did trip across MoltenGamepad, but I haven't really tried it out yet.

I found this project in another reddit thread, but it hasn't been updated since 2020: https://github.com/jgeumlek/MoltenGamepad

I use https://github.com/jgeumlek/MoltenGamepad to make all of my pads behave like XBox360 controllers.
