How to fully "rebind" a button?

[Jacob-077]

Hello,

I want to make the "Dpad - Up" button on my controller to act ONLY as the Spacebar key.

When I normally try to do so, both keys co-exist instead of the new key's action replacing the old one, so now when I press "Up" on the Dpad, it does 2 actions.

What I want is for the Spacebar key to fully replace the Up button so that it doesn't produce conflicts.

Thank.

Are you talking about some way of intercepting gamepad button presses?

As far as I understood when you press dpad-UP button (mapped to space) game receives two presses (space press and dpad press at once)

EDIT:
In case of Linux check: https://github.com/AntiMicroX/antimicrox/wiki/Methods-for-Disabling-Joystick-Reading-in-Linux

@Jacob-Darka
Do I understand correctly?

Yes, I want the game to receive only one press which in this case is the space key and totally ignore what the dpad button actually does in-game.

Or is that not possible?

What is your system?
If Linux then you can use instructions from wiki: https://github.com/AntiMicroX/antimicrox/wiki/Methods-for-Disabling-Joystick-Reading-in-Linux
