DS5 Mapper vs OmniControl

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.

OmniControl is a Windows desktop app for changing controller inputs and presenting them to games as a virtual controller. It can remap buttons, sticks, and triggers, read motion, and record macros. Emulation requires the separate ViGEmBus driver, which can be installed from the app. Supported devices include DualSense and DualShock controllers, Xbox models, Switch Pro, GameCube and Wii Remote through Dolphin outputs, Meta Touch Plus, Quest 3/3S over Link, and Razer Raiju V3. Its Game Packs catalog has ready-made setups for 251 games that users can browse and import for free. For PS5 Remote Play, it works with chiaki-ng using a virtual DualShock 4 and includes presets for about 60 PS5 games. Game Center scans Steam and Epic libraries, accepts manual additions, and links games to profiles for automatic switching. The free plan covers reading, mapping, and tuning. Insider costs $9.99/mo; Pro Annual costs $59.99 per year. The 64-bit Windows 10 and 11 installer is 48.1 MB and updates automatically.
