Playing with a controller?

The InputConfig app icon

InputConfig is my other app: a free controller mapper for the Mac. It turns a PS5, Xbox or Switch controller, a MIDI keyboard or a spare mouse into a full keyboard and mouse for your Mac, so Minecraft with Rockstar Shaders, and everything else on the machine, plays the way you want. No account, no subscription, nothing locked.
