Accompanying the previous update, this feature release improves the overlay functionality and switches to some more sane gyro defaults.

New Features

  • Handheld Daemon can now mute the emulated controller and redirect its output directly to the overlay
    • This means that input no longer leaks to games and guide/qam buttons do not trigger Steam
    • Support for external controllers is coming but is tricky. As these controllers are not managed by handheld daemon, monitoring, muting and redirecting them will be tricky without introducing performance/functionality regressions
  • New theme switcher allows you to switch to two new themes in case you do not like the distribution one
    • The two new themes are called Diavolo and Atlantis
    • Diavolo is the new default theme, and replaces the bluish gray with a reddish one
    • Atlantis is a blue/yellow theme meant to remind of the beach, but its colors still need a bit of tweaking
  • The Legion Go Display gyro is now deprecated and the rule that disables display autorotation is removed
    • The left controller gyro is now the default
    • You will need to add the rule manually to use the display gyro properly
  • The Gyro to Mouse fix was rebranded to Gyro Sync and is now enabled by default
    • This comes with a failover, where if IMU input is not received for 2 seconds, the controller will disable it. This avoids breaking the controller if gyro breaks.
    • Hopefully this is more intuitive for new users
