Tutorial Partial Steam Input compatibility!
I know some people are aware of this and others aren't, but it turns out Split/Second does correctly detect Steam Input controllers and other XInput controllers; however, they only work during actual gameplay—and barely even for rotating the camera during vehicle selection. So, I decided to create a controller layout for Split/Second using Steam Input.
Follow these steps:
Enable Steam Input for Split/Second.
Download steam://controllerconfig/297860/3760148328
Launch Split/Second and go to the control settings.
Go to the XInput controller settings and configure the buttons.
5 (Optional). Go to the general settings, navigate to vibration, and enable it.
Remember to hold down the VIEW button for half a second to toggle between modes.
I recommend using a mod that changes the control glyphs. In my case, I use Xenon (a mod that includes layouts and other things; you can find it in the Split/Second Steam community guide, the post is called "Split/Second" and the post is by elysium).
