X1nput VS DualSenseSupport

TL;DR: Disable Steam input first (right-click Forza Horizon 5 > Properties > Controller > Disable steam input), then download the latest version of X1input here and place the 64bit .dll file it gives you in the directory of your FH5 game (should be like steamapps > common > ForzaHorizon5)

Go to https://github.com/araghon007/X1nput/releases

Link to download: Releases · araghon007/X1nput (github.com) Link to instructions: araghon007/X1nput: Xinput hook for Impulse Trigger emulation (github.com)

The API that allows for that is Windows.Gaming.Input. There is a re-writing of Xinput called X1nput that allows to use it https://github.com/araghon007/X1nput

Interesting, I hadn't heard of X1nput before. Did you try following the instructions on the X1nput repo?

Try this! It will make it so that if there's a vibration event, the triggers will also vibrate.

In order to use adaptive triggers on Steam you need to disable Steam input through the game's settings and plug in the controller via USB-C. If you're using remote play and wanting to use adaptive triggers, your out of luck. There are some programs like Dualsense Support Test, that can automatically keep the adaptive triggers on a certain setting but they won't change modes automatically in game like how they would work with USB-C.

You can use a program called DualSenseSupport Test (found at this link: https://github.com/Mxater/DualSenseSupport) which allows you to set your own dualsense trigger resistences. The main problem with this so far is that the triggers do not change based on game or anything related. This program so far only allows you to preset a resistence or reaction and if you want to change it, you will have to manually change it. But even as is, it's much more immersive than not having it on at all.

Can't find it from google (exe is just called 'testing' and there are some other generically named files), it looks like this might do the trick: https://github.com/Mxater/DualSenseSupport

There is a tool called DualSenseSupport that lets you set your triggers to whatever you want, so you can have them emulate that GC analogue click for example. It'd stay fixed to that setting you chose and I think you can play games with it running in the background, the triggers just won't be 'adaptive', at least not real-time.

ofcourse! https://github.com/Mxater/DualSenseSupport

Yes, but not 100% up there yet. DualSense Support aims to implement a somewhat unified solution to make the tech work on games that don't even support it. There is also a way to make haptic feedback work on almost any game with tools like Voicemeter.

There's a tool available here that lets you set the triggers to have different effects. It's not exactly "adaptive" but it lets you play with them at least.

Here, here, here and here

There's been reverse engineering progress [for Adaptive Trigers] from the community thus far, but as we stand: The DualSense is essentially a improved DualShock 4 with Rumble-style Haptic Feedback.
