SDT mouse trackpad feels to get stuck on latest stable steam client on WIN11 24H2 x64

[PS2ClassicsVault]

Upon setting up steam and setting up to x360 input only upon switching to x360 only the mouse feels like it's struggling but as soon as i disable the entire app and restore back to steam input mouse goes back to normal!

Likely related to #208 and #210.

The latest SteamOS update is causing issues with steam deck tools controller app

Same issue, and #208 and #210 too

I solve this problem in my fork. NO PR here, cause i did many functionality changes. @ayufan dissallow my PR before (with customized FPS limits).

You didn't solve the problem, you just moved lizard mouse settings to the release build.

Even if that the case in his release he mentioned that lizard will be disabled by default so it should fix this issue

I downloaded the debug version of the Steam controller app but I have to disable that option manually every time I boot Windows on the Steamdeck. I'm using the original version of Steam deck tools, and I just replaced one version with another (debug) of the Steam controller app.

Unfortunately I no longer have Steam Deck, so cannot test why it fails and what is the better way to fix it. I pushed a change adding Lizard setting (persisted) to release build as a workaround: https://github.com/ayufan/steam-deck-tools/releases/tag/0.7.4.

I downloaded this version and have enabled LizardMouse and LizardButtons on desktop mode and the problem no longer happens!!! However when I switch to Xbox controller mode the problem happens again!

@ayufan So far in my attempts to debug, the program does not seem to run into any exception. No error logs are created

When I check the debug console in visual studio, the button presses and releases are registered correctly, they don’t display as duplicates or anything.

From what I can tell, it’s almost as if the controls disconnect and reconnect around 4 times a second. It happens in Xbox mode as well as desktop. It could be happening in a “tick” method but again no exception thrown.

If you could point me in a direction which I can investigate, or if you send me a verbose version of sdt I will send you the logs.

@General4878 The controller detection is something that is injected into Steam, this probably broke with the steam update. There could also be controller update from SteamOS that changed some controller behavior.

Can someone check usb vid/pid of steam controller? This is what I have now:

        public const ushort VendorID = 0x28DE;
        public const ushort ProductID = 0x1205;

You could do it on for example on SteamOS, terminal by typing lsusb and giving me the output.

The IDs seem to be the same, but I am not on the latest SteamOS Version, so it might still be changed in the latest. I still get the same behaviour in Windows though.

This is the output for me

@ayufan the PID and VID are the same so this is not the problem, but I did discover something interesting!

With the latest beta build of SDT 0.7.4 I was running tests with the debug lizard settings and found that on Desktop controller mode:

• If Lizard Buttons is false but LizardMouse is true then the bug happens
• If they are both true then the issue no longer happens !

However when I switch to Xbox controller mode, the issue seems to continue even though LizardMouse and LizardButtons are true.

No idea why this would be but maybe you have an insight?

Please let me know what you think or if there’s anything else I can help with to get this sorted once and for all 😁

[ayufan]

Interesting. It might seem that my trick to blacklist controllers might not work with latest Steam. This is the magic: https://github.com/ayufan/steam-deck-tools/blob/main/SteamController/Helpers/SteamConfiguration.cs#L24.

So, on Windows:

• What version of Steam are you using.
• Can someone share the config/config.vdf from Steam folder? Just ensure that there's no private information in it. You have to open it, and go through it manually.
