stadiacontroller VS Killed by Google

https://github.com/71/stadiacontroller this will also work.

Im quite sure ds4 wont work but yes there are other Tools to translate stadia Controller into a xbox controller. https://github.com/71/stadiacontroller

Maybe this tool still works? I haven't tried it. Steam has a built-in tool that does this for games launched from Steam but I don't know if you can add Xbox Game Pass games to the Steam launcher.

Currently my Windows PC can connect to the controller, and with the help of stadiacontroller and ViGEmBus it works great with Steam games.

for those interested 1. download & install ViGEm 2. download, unzip and run StadiaController Has to be running everytime you want to use the controller. this will emulate everything perfectly

The controller doesn't work natively, you have to emulate it as an Xbox controller, ya can do this in the steam settings or alternatively use this software https://github.com/71/stadiacontroller a command prompt will pop up, leave it open and ya controller will work on all games.

Using this software to emulate it as an XboX controller: https://github.com/71/stadiacontroller. Works fine with USB and BT. Officially not maintained anymore, but don't see any reason why it shouldn't keep working.

I found this one on Github and it works great.

Just go to this Gtihub repo and download the latest version available.

Their reputation is deserved. Google domains was killed only last year!

And this isn't even the first time I've been burned by Google's decisions. If you're familiar at all with the Google Graveyard, you'll know that Google has a long history of killing off products and services that people have come to rely on. This has happened to me a number of times, in both a personal and professional capacity, and frankly it's getting old.

Just because Google has a couple of decent services that you're willing to pay for doesn't detract from the fact that most of their products have a worse life expectancy than a victorian child in the 1800s. https://killedbygoogle.com

They ruined every single opportunity to be more than an advertising company since Orkut. With scrapped attempts, starts and lack of intention for most of the 2010s to even during the early half of the Pixel Era, they seemingly haven't learnt to stick to something and iterate on it well.

And the fact that over 50% of their revenues come from search and by extension, advertising.

The fact' that til this day, they still haven't evolved from the "throwing shit at the wall then at the fan" strat which explains how they have fumbled so much so quickly.

Yeah. The Google Graveyard really shows how far this can go.

The punchline is that in addition to hundreds of failed hobby projects, their stock is doing great. Monopoly power is a helluva drug.

To me Gemini is just sort of generic and uninteresting. There has to be hundreds or thousands of products and companies based on the name "Gemini" - "Bard" was at least interesting, different and distinct.

I've no idea about the quality of the product itself, I have never had a reason to use it. It's long past cliché now but I wouldn't get too attached to a Google product that is definitely costing a lot of money but which has no clear pathway to turning a profit. I think they will keep it ticking over until the hype train moves on from Chatbots/LLMs, and then it'll join the Google Graveyard @ https://killedbygoogle.com

We're not talking about reliability, we're talking about Google's penchant for killing established products that people use. https://killedbygoogle.com
