Revolution X Unlimited controller sticks issue

[ptuchik]

Hi,

I have Nacon's Revolution X Unlimited Controller connected to my Apple Silicon Mac on Sequoia 15.5 via Bluetooth and using the latest build of SDL. The "testcontroller" works for all the buttons except sticks, both sticks are not centered in rest state and movements are incorrect, is there a way to fix it?
You can see the rest state of the controller on attached image

Thank you

What is the console output of testcontroller?

I’m surprised it hasn’t been picked up as an Xbox controller by the OS. Reading about it online suggests that it needs a firmware update, but that many people have bricked their devices trying to apply it. Have you updated your firmware, or is this fresh out of the box?

[ptuchik]

It is updated to current latest firmware version, their official website and support say that it is not supported on MacOS, but everything works except sticks, that's why I though maybe they are also can be fixed and the gamepad will become MacOS compatible as the most games and apps are using SDL library.

[ptuchik]

I can share the "up", "down", "left" and "right" position screenshots also for both sticks if they may help

[slouken]

I've ordered this controller and will be checking it out when it arrives. Thanks for the report!

[ptuchik]

Great! Thank you! It is really cool controller with ultra minimal latency

[slouken]

Okay, this is the craziest controller I've ever seen. Here's a mapping that almost works:

It is like this now, does it work for you?
