# GloSC
|
|
|
|
GlosSC or Global SteamController is a small set of tools that allows you to use your SteamController as a systemwide XInput-controller alongside a systemwide (borderless window) Steam overlay
|
|
|
|
All complete with **per application bindings and working rumble emulation.**
|
|
|
|
GloSC can also launch any of your favorite Games and directly add them to Steam, be it Win32 or UWP!
|
|
|
|
It is **the tool** to enjoy any Game that has trouble with Steam and/or *add extra functionality* to your SteamController
|
|
|
|

|
|
## FAQ / Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
* **Q: The overlay isn't showing up!**
|
|
|
|
A: The overlay only works for windowed or borderless windowed mode applications. Nothing much I can do here.
|
|
This is even true for UWP-Games! While it's true that UWP doesn't run exclusive fullscreen, they don't run, strictly speaking, classical borderless window either
|
|
|
|
Try running your games as borderless window
|
|
|
|
* **Q: Audio turns off when using this**
|
|
|
|
A: ViGEm emulates a full X360-controller incl. peripherals
|
|
|
|
Go to your windows sound mixer and reset you default playback device - It should be fixed, even for the next shortcut launches
|
|
|
|
* **Q: Multiple different controllers are not working**
|
|
|
|
A: Will probably be fixed in the long run, for now we have to wait for a new ViGEm release.
|
|
|
|
* **Q: Hitting the Steam Button + RT to take a screenshot doesn't work**
|
|
|
|
A: Another limitation that most likely won't be fixed, even if Steam would take a screenshot, you'd most likely get just a blank image
|
|
|
|
* **Q: UWP Games don't launch in foreground**
|
|
|
|
A: For some reason trying to launch them in foreground stops them fron launching entirely
|
|
|
|
For now use alt+tab via Steam-chords
|
|
|
|
This is currently beeing investigated
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It is built using [Qt 5.7](https://www.qt.io/) and uses [SFML](http://www.sfml-dev.org/) for drawing the overlay
|
|
|
|
The systemwide Xbox-Controller works via [ViGEm](https://github.com/nefarius/ViGEm)
|
|
|
|
GloSC consists of:
|
|
|
|
* A main application ("GloSC") allowing you to create and configure new shortcuts or "SteamTargets" and automatically add them to Steam
|
|
* The "GloSC-GameLauncher" which can launch Win32 and UWP games and mainly exists to work around dual overlays
|
|
* The "SteamTarget" which does most of the magic - Showing the overlay to the user as well as talking to the ViGEm-driver for systemwide Controller emulation
