SC Controller on Windows is work-in-progress, so don't expect to have all (or even most) of features. What works:

  • Wired and wireless Steam Controller (without Steam)
  • Mouse and keyboard emulation
  • Gamepad emulation - on Windows 10, all windows application can see Steam controller as xinput-compatible gamepad. On Windows 7, DS4 gamepad is emulated instead.
  • Very basic on-screen menu to switch between "Desktop mode" and "Gamepad mode".

Install ViGEM

Install ViGEMBus before running SC Controller. If you are using GloSC, you most likely already have ViGEM installed. This is not strictly necessary, but gamepad emulation depends on it. Without ViGEM, you can use SC Controller as keyboard and mouse emulator.

Follow this tutorial to install ViGEMBus. On Windows 7, "caveman edition" seems to work better.

How to run

  • Grab zip from latest pre-release and extract it somewhere.
  • Navigate to extracted directory and run scc-daemon.exe
  • Console window should popup. Keep it open, closing it will terminate application.
  • Try pressing some buttons or moving mouse with right touchpad.
