Controller Converter + +This tool allows using a physical _Densha de GO!_ controller with a game that does not officially support it. It is Linux only (check https://autotraintas.hariko.com/ if you use Windows). + +## How it works + +The program reads input from a real controller, translates it and sends it to an emulated controller, which is picked up by the game. + +## Installation + +The executable is ready to use. However, you will need read AND write permissions on `/dev/uinput` for the program to work. + +**NOTE:** Currently, this fails to launch on the Steam Deck in Gaming Mode. It works fine in Desktop Mode, but you need to disable Steam Input (or close Steam entirely). + +## Supported controllers + +### Physical + +- One-handle controller for Nintendo Switch (ZKNS-001) + +### Emulated + +- Two-handle controller for PC (DGOC-44U) +- Two-handle controller for Sony PlayStation (SLPH-00051) +- Two-handle controller for Nintendo 64 (TCPP-20003) +- Two-handle controller for SEGA Saturn (TC-5175290) + +## Notes + +When emulating console controllers, an emulated Sony PlayStation 3 controller is used for easier mapping. On RetroArch, everything works out of the box. + +_Densha de GO! 64_ requires connecting the controller to Port 3 and enabling **Independent C-button Controls**.
