How do I hide gyro from a game using steam input?

Trying to play shadow warrior with a dualsense. It’s interpreting the gyro input as the secondary attack trigger (no matter which trigger that is) and in turn the trigger does nothing. In steam input settings the gyro is set to ‘none’ but that doesn’t prevent this behavior. Any way to hide the gyro from the game completely?

Edit: linux

Facebones ,

You’ll be hiding no gyro from me, Sir. I’ll smell it a mile away!

I ate gyro last night and when I read this I was very confused for a couple seconds

Blaiz0r ,

You would want to check what the trigger is set to.

How does this controller work in other games, any issues?

Also you could try loading in another template to pre configure the controller

Lojcs OP ,

The trigger is set to trigger. Normally the left trigger is secondary attack and doesn’t work but if I turn on left handed mode from in-game settings then the right trigger is secondary attack and doesn’t work.

The controller worked fine up until now.

I haven’t tried mouse and keyboard emulation but I’m assuming it would suck

Blaiz0r ,

Very weird, and I assume the in game controls are setup normally?

Also do you have any other software that could interfere with the controls? Any other game launchers open even?

Have you tried restarting the machine and starting from scratch?

Lojcs OP , (edited )

The game is set up normally and there isn’t other software that could interfere.

Other things the gyro affects:

The tilt of the controller very slightly moves the character backwards. Jerking the controller around also has an effect on the screen but doesnt seem to move the character a discernable distance. I can also semi-reliably perform the secondary attack by thrusting the controller back and forth (wii sports, yay)

Edit: Just noticed that it’s the Linux native version I’m playing, will try proton

Edit 2: Proton doesn’t have the issue. Fixed

Blaiz0r ,

That is bonkers, glad you got it sorted
