DS5 Mapper vs Input Remapper

DS5 Mapper maps a DualSense controller to keyboard and mouse input, including gyro aim. Built for League of Legends WASD mode, it is described as working with any game that reads keyboard and mouse input. Gyro movement controls the cursor using yaw and roll, with cutoff and tiered smoothing. Calibration persists between launches and can be redone in the app. Every controller input can be assigned to a keyboard key, mouse button, macOS virtual keycode, or special key. Connect the DualSense by USB or Bluetooth before launching. DS5 Mapper reads controller input through SDL2 and creates operating-system-level keyboard and mouse events with pynput; its README says input is not injected into a game process. A watchdog and signal-stability bias correction are included to reduce cursor runaway and drift. The software is free under the MIT license, and version v1.0-beta downloads are listed for macOS and Windows. On macOS, the unsigned app requires a one-time Gatekeeper bypass and Accessibility and Input Monitoring permissions. On Windows, SmartScreen may block it and require choosing Run anyway.

Input Remapper is free Linux software for changing how input devices behave. It can map keys, mouse movements, joysticks, wheels, triggers, combinations and other inputs to different outputs, using either X11 or Wayland. In its graphical interface, you select a device, create a preset, add mappings and apply them. Optional macros provide cross-device variables, conditions and named parameters. Analog inputs can become analog outputs with adjustable sensitivity and non-linearity. Installation guidance covers Ubuntu/Debian, Fedora, Arch and Void, with manual installation described for other distributions. Version 2.0 and later requires at least Ubuntu 22.04. Reading `/dev/input/` events requires special permissions, so the interface requests a sudo password. Output symbols depend on the keyboard layout. The project is GPL-3.0 licensed and warns that game anti-cheat software might detect macros.
