##SDL_GameControllerDB

A community source database of game controller mappings to be used with SDL2 Game Controller functionality.

####Usage:

Download gamecontrollerdb.txt, place it in your app's directory and load with:

SDL_GameControllerAddMappingsFromFile("gamecontrollerdb.txt");

####Creating new mappings:

To create new mappings, you can use the controllermap utility provided with SDL2, or using Steam's Big Picture mode, configure your joystick and then look in config/config.vdf in your Steam installation directory for the SDL_GamepadBind entry.

####Checking your mappings: You need to have python3 installed. Run

python3 check.py gamecontrollerdb.txt
