Hi,

I have some game controllers lying around here at home that i would like
to add to SDL2 - is there some documentation around for this?

Regards
Martin

Are you talking about the game controller API?

The easiest way to do this is to run Steam and configure the controller in Big Picture and then poke around the config files to find the configuration string and add it to SDL.


FYI, if you do configure your controller with Big Picture, then any Steam games that use SDL 2.0 will automatically get the correct configuration without any further work. :)
