Wheel2XInput, designed for mapping wheel and wheel accessories to XInput

There’s a lot of cross-over between this and x360ce to be fair. However, for me at least, I got fed up of x360 constantly deleting settings and never really getting to grips with the per game configs. Never had any such problems with W2X.

Another key benefit is not only being able to map multiple devices to single xinput bindings (which you can also do with x360) but then with any of those individual devices also being able to map multiple buttons from them to a single xinput outputs- which you can’t do in x360 (it will clear a binding if you try to map elsewhere on the same device - see my crazy taxi example above). There’s also I believe benefits of being able send FFB to multiple devices which I’ve yet to explore.

I would really like to test this out with my G29 but since it does not have GUI and is just code based it looks a bit intimidating. Are there any easy user friendly guides where i can follow? I did check it's README, i found it to be a bit confusing.

Just wait a little bit. I have been pushing hard on an update that was worth the wait. I've been fortunate to have a team of beta testers in the discord that have been helping iron it out. I will update this thread when it is ready. Guess the software didn't die in 2022 after all!

Thanks for responding. You are correct, you can do one-to-many and many-to-one mappings. There will be a lot of fine-grained control that I think will be more relevant for anyone with an FFB device than a generic x360ce implementation.
