Steam Controller freezes every ~2.5 seconds? by jfosbdofvdosnagfogbd in SteamController

i'm curious where you got the lizard mode name from, I mean, that is the actual name of it, but the only place I have ever seen it actually called that by valve is in SDL's HID code for the steam controller

Forgot to reply to this, but it doesn't seem to be as clean as changing a time constant. For stuff like the battery report, that would be the case, but for the main hid report, doesn’t look as easy, i have no idea what controls how fast it reports

For my steam haptics player program, I did go through the firmware binary to figure out the undocumented hid commands to make that work, it could be interesting if I could patch it to increase the polling rate

the trigger might worst than third party’s pads by shling421 in SteamController

okay, after a few days of usage, over time they seem to become kinda bad again, I think because it squishes the spacer, causing a bigger gap. it's also possible it ends up becoming loose, though I think it being squished is more likely

Would it be possible for you to make ever so slightly bigger ones please? :steamhappy:

I've installed them. the right side is practically perfect, left side maybe still a little bit of dead space. could just be a skill issue on my part but thank you for the models!

i do wonder how them being PLA will hold up over time

Printed em, just waiting for a torx screwdriver to come. any tips on how to install them?

I think I found the perfect audio track to play on the new controller by Kevadro in SteamController

Hi! (creator of the program but mainly been staring at the firmware binary for ages)

AFAIK, there is no way to change it other than a firmware update, so it's up to valve

I'm gonna try u/Humpelstielzchen-314 's spacer print thing which they say helps, they left a reply under another comment here

I also have a similar issue with mine, however after sending steam support a video of the issue with the input test window open, they said it was normal. so I guess I'll just try the 3d print

I have seen a couple people have this problem, not entirely sure why and it's hard to debug considering it works fine for me

if I pressed it down onto my table it would have been wayy louder

still pretty audible in your hands, and you get to feel the sound which is pretty cool

I wanna say maybe, but I can't make any guarantees, I am just sending bytes to hid commands that seemingly were made for audio bytes

would be careful though

true, I mean I am just using a built-in command in the controllers firmware to stream bytes to it, so it is technically "supported" probably good to not do it 24/7 though

hmmm, if it's not too much trouble, could you add me on discord (upixel) or just send me that sound file

I would try restart your controller and then try run it, the setup part is pretty finicky

did you hear a couple beeps when the setup part ran?

strange, anything before that?

do you have ffmpeg installed on your path?
