@ -12,6 +12,44 @@ The primary use case of GlosSI is to use SteamInput (required for SteamControlle
GlosSI can, but isn't required to, launch any of your favorite games or applications and directly add them to Steam, be it Win32 or Windows Store (UWP)!
It is **the tool** to enjoy any game that has trouble with Steam and/or *add extra functionality* to your Steam-Input needs

# ViGEm End of Life
As you may or may not have already noticed ViGEm, a substantial part in making GlosSI work it's magic is End of Life.
You can read the announcement [here](https://docs.nefarius.at/projects/ViGEm/End-of-Life/)
As I don't think holding on to deprecated dependencies is a good way of moving forward, this effectively kills GlosSI as well since without ViGEm and HidHide GlosSI cannot function.
There will be a last deprecated version of ViGEm circumventing an issue stated in their announcement.
GlosSI will be updated a last time as well, providing this version bundled with it.
The GlosSI website will be taken down, however, you can then fin the last release, here on GitHub
### GlosSI won't be taken down or magically stop working, nor will it be unsafe to use. Just a maintenance stop.

I also want to take the opportunity to give a MASSIVE shoutout to @Nefarius , the creator of ViGEm, HidHide and many other awesome tools
Back when good old GloSC was just a cobbled together PoC using parts of the very old ScpToolkit he has been massively helpful and even shared ViGEm with me way before it was ready to be run on any machine that doesn't belong to a wizard (or should I say sorcerer?) like him.

Will GlosSI continue?
Probably. But most likely not in its current form.
@Nefarius wizardry is continuing and a successor to ViGEm is being worked on, but nothing has been publicly released, yet.
As I severely lack the time to properly maintain a project like GlosSI (as you probably have already noticed, I'm sure), I'm quite fond of the idea of rebooting the project yet again, once ViGEms successor becomes available.
However, I'm not sure if I find the time and motivation again to continue with GlosSI
Until I can (and want to) get my hands on it, the future is unsure...
I'll be back to silence for now then.
Thanks for all the support, it was a blast!
