Steam Input
Enabled the Steam Controller BLE FW Update, for more information visit here: https://steamcommunity.com/games/353370/announcements/detail/2503317299191608387
Added Switch Pro Controller Support – More info can be found here: https://steamcommunity.com/games/353370/announcements/detail/1648757912601251834 (https://steamcommunity.com/games/353370/announcements/detail/2503317299191608387)
Of note with Switch Pro bindings – you should use the global Nintendo Layout setting to determine your preferred layout rather than manually moving the face buttons around. This will make it easier to share configurations with other users who prefer a reversed A/B layout.
Added support for the NACON Revolution Pro 2 PS4 controller
Modified Steam Input to take hardware update rate of specific controllers into account when checking for input. Other improvements to the polling loop also reduce jitter and improve mouse emulation.
PS4 Controllers which are plugged in while already being connected wirelessly will now be ignored.
Fixed input lag when starting Big Picture or starting streaming
Fixed a second controller showing up briefly in games when hot-plugging a controller
Changed the layout of the Polish On-screen Keyboard based on user feedback - the Polish Programmer’s keyboard layout is now used instead of the standard Polish keyboard.
Fixed areas of the Steam Input Configurator where the length of the Polish localized text would cause settings to overflow past the visible portion of the screen.
Updated the Steam Input API button glyph images
Improved behavior of joystick auto-calibration
Improved handling of controller configuration when the Steam Overlay is disabled
Improved software gyro drift correction
Added Gyro Enable Button Toggle. The button assigned to enable the gyro can now act as a toggle to the state rather than a hold.
Added button for calibrating gyro only without doing joystick calibration
Fixed a bug where newly added modes didn't always have their default settings set properly to reflect their device or placement
Fixed cached controller configurations sometimes getting used on an incorrect controller when controllers were being removed and added
Fixed Gyro Enable Button dropdown having appropriate options for each controller type Fixed Generic Direct Input controllers which had no guide button assigned automatically using the Back/Select button
Windows
Fixed corrupted graphics when running on Windows 10 with desktop scaling set to 225% or higher
MacOS
Fixed chat windows not appearing when clicking on the dock icon
Linux
Fixed a bug where trying to re-add old Steam Library folders to the client would fail with an error about the filesystem not being mounted with execute permissions
Fixed a common cause of games getting stuck when bringing up the overlay
Fixed a problem where trying to resize the client window would sometimes snap back to the original size
Fixed incorrect/rainbow colors when streaming from the desktop of a machine running recent Mesa Fixed low resolution in Big Picture mode due to incorrect video memory detection on Mesa
Steam Link and In-Home Streaming
Added support for connecting to locked Windows computers, as long as Steam is running and you have access to a keyboard.
Added support for interrupting a remote desktop session. Connecting will show the login screen when an RDP session is active, and logging in will disconnect RDP and start streaming the desktop normally.
Removed the splash animation when launching Big Picture via Steam Link
Re-added Restart/Suspend/Shutdown menu options when streaming to Steam Link
Fixed black/green video for games using Unreal Engine 4 in OpenGL mode
Fixed upside-down video for some OpenGL titles Changed behavior to remain in Big Picture mode if streaming is disconnected while a game is still playing
