Turn your Vita into a fully functional PC gaming controller with rear touchpad controls.

This is an improved version of the vitastick plugin by xerpi with added functionality, improved code readability, and some major changes that increase reliability and usability.

Features

  • Simple and elegant interface.
  • Captures touchpad control input (L2/R2 & L3/R3).
  • Allows custom placement of individual touchpad controls.
  • Enable or disable active gamepad screen.
  • Reduces clock frequencies when active to reduce power consumption.
  • Disables use of power and PS buttons while gamepad functionality is active (this allows the gamepad to continue working as necessary).

Add vitapad.skprx to your config.txt under the kernel section.

*KERNEL
ur0:tai/vitapad.skprx
