Graphical program used to map keyboard buttons and mouse controls to a gamepad. Useful for playing games with no gamepad support.
AntiMicroX Portable is a graphical program designed to map keyboard buttons and mouse controls to a gamepad. This tool enables users to utilize a gamepad for gaming even when the game lacks native gamepad support.
Key Features:
Graphical interface for intuitive mapping of keyboard and mouse inputs to gamepad buttons, joysticks, and triggers.
Support for multiple devices, allowing simultaneous use of keyboards, mice, and gamepads.
Customizable profiles for different games or scenarios, enabling quick switching between configurations.
Real-time adjustments to mappings without restarting the application.
Audience & Benefit:
Ideal for gamers who prefer using a gamepad but play titles that lack native support. AntiMicroX Portable enhances gameplay by providing an alternative control method, making it easier to enjoy games with precision and comfort. It can be installed via winget.
Due to lack of time and shifting focus of its developer AntiMicroX is looking for a new maintainer willing to continue development.
For now, this app will have only limited support and will not get any new features (unless coded by external contributors). Link to discussion

If you are having problems with antimicrox detecting a controller or
detecting all axes and buttons, you should test the controller outside of
antimicrox to check if the problem is with antimicrox or not. The two endorsed
programs for testing gamepads outside of antimicrox are sdl-jstest
(sdl2-jstest) and evtest. SDL2 utilizes evdev on Linux so performing
testing with older programs that use joydev won't be as helpful since some
devices behave a bit differently between the two systems. Another method also exists,
which can be found here.
