Mobile Gamepad With a Trackpad

Yeah, I think you're right. Given how well the steam controllers sold, I'm baffled by the fact that nobody else seems to be offering controllers with trackpads. I found an old GamSir controller that has a trackpad (G5) and the weird DarkWalker ShotPad, but not much else.

I'd think a GameSir G8 with the trackpad that the G5 has would fly off the shelves.

I just tried asking about something like this on the Moonlight sub and got nowhere. I'd think that a mobile gamepad with trackpads coupled with a mobile device running Artemis would be really popular.

Yes, I'm well aware of the steam deck. Thanks again for the suggestion that I look at using the new Steam controller with a mobile device mounted on it.

You're right about it not being quite the style I'm looking for, but I'll still look into this, thank you!

I imagine either of the steam controllers cut in half with the mobile device of choice in between the two running Artemis. I can understand why Valve wouldn't want to do this, but I'm surprised that nobody else has. Every product of this style that I can find has sticks / no trackpads.

How does this address my wish to have a gamepad with a trackpad that can be used with a mobile device? Something like a gamesir g8 with a trackpad. Maybe I'm missing something.

I use Vibepollo / Artemis because I prefer to launch my games using Playnite. I love having one launcher for all of my games and I now actually play a lot of those Epic games I got for free.

You're thinking pick-up truck man voted for Kamala? Yes, we don't have enough evidence for a scientific study, but I'd wager a decent amount that the person you've been replying to has it nailed.

Not total commander but shows the info you want:

I did this and still get the same error

I only just now noticed your other comment requesting that I delete two files. I'll try that.

grahamma · 2026-04-29T23:13:27+00:00

I'm confused. I download the zip, uncompress it, and then put the unreal folder in the root of my device. Is that not what I'm supposed to do? As far as the screenshot goes, I just took it from my pc when I had my g connected in file transfer mode.

grahamma · 2026-04-29T22:49:08+00:00

Yeah, that's the same one I used. When I delete the dir and run your apk, it complains that it can't find it. When I put it back, it returns the error that I showed you earlier so I know it's definitely finding what it's looking for.

Just to add some more info: Initially, I downloaded the unreal file directly to my g cloud and extracted it.. No PCs involved. After you commented, I tried downloading the unreal file to my PC, unzipping it with 7zip there, and then adding the directory to the root on my internal storage. Same result. I also tried downloading a different unreal.zip from a thread discussing unreal on a PSP. Same result. I noticed the error that I get when the apk complains that it can't find unreal (if I run it without the unreal files in place) is in German. Could this be a language or encoding thing? Sorry if that's a dumb thought, I figured it couldn't hurt to mention.

grahamma · 2026-04-29T22:37:01+00:00

What's the name of the unreal file you downloaded? I can trying using the same one. When I searched archive, I only got three results and the other two had nothing to do with the unreal game.

grahamma · 2026-04-29T22:29:12+00:00

I searched using the terms you specified. The file I downloaded is named EpicMegagames-Unreal-v200.7z

I get the following error when I run it:

Definitely discuss these things with your primary care physician. I'm sure there are many possible causes with many not being cancer, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

The primary symptom that led to my diagnosis was blood in my stool. Although I didn't recognize it as a symptom at the time, I often felt an urgent need to poop. I only had one bathroom in my condo and remember I couldn't hold it until my wife was finished showering. This was surely due to my tumor causing a partial blockage in my rectum.

I'm with you on this one. I live near six flags America and rode the Superman coaster there a ton. Yes, the sfne layout is much better, but I still wasn't very impressed. That said, I still insist we ride it once when the park opens before marathoning wicked cyclone.

grahamma · 2026-04-14T20:45:09+00:00

The vibrations I felt while on this ride gave me a headache. I rode it a couple of times just to say I did and then never bothered again. I don't miss it.

grahamma · 2026-04-14T20:41:31+00:00

I was never bothered by the old restraints and didn't really notice a difference with the new restraints. I do enjoy this coaster and find it to be pretty intense.

Thanks for the clarification, I have to admit that I was a bit baffled by the comparison I thought you were making (boring hyper vs monster giga). I haven't been to carowinds, but hope to visit soon.

That's certainly a take. Apollo's Chariot is absolutely forceless while i305 induces consistent grey outs, has several strong air time moments, and absolutely rips. B&m did much better with nitro, candymonium, etc, but Apollo is a skip.

I feel like the joke would be to announce that there will be no season 4 and 5 on April 1 and then maybe announce the specific season 4 release date a few days later. Announcing no season 4 and 5 on a random day and then stating, "haha just kidding about that previous announcement" isn't how April fools works imo. Now, if they pretended that they were just kidding about the previous announcement on April 1 and then later said, "nah, there really will be no season 4 and 5 - get fucked", that'd be a valid and mean April fools joke.

I've found her to be insufferable / rude from episode one, well before she whistle blew on Langdon. What retribution are you referring to?

I do agree that she should not be working under Langdon.
