Verified 2026-06-07: Cyberpunk on GOG/Heroic fires adaptive triggers in
real gameplay, 1:1 with Steam. Corrects the recipe across README,
CHANGELOG, and the new DUALSENSE_GAME_LIST.md:
- no launch option needed on Wine 11 (PROTON_ENABLE_HIDRAW now legacy)
- works on BOTH Steam and Heroic; Heroic needs Steam fully quit + no
global PROTON_PREFER_SDL
- XInput-only games (Ghostrunner, Control) give rumble but no triggers
by engine design, not a dongle limit
- OpenRGB confirmed a non-issue

DualSense adaptive-trigger games — owned + tested through the dongle
Cross-referenced across Steam + Epic + GOG (~1,271 owned games). Native adaptive triggers work on both Steam and Heroic, flag-free, with runner = GE-Proton-DualSense (Wine 11). Verified 2026-06-07 by running Cyberpunk on both launchers — identical trigger behaviour.
- Steam: GE-Proton-DualSense + Steam Input off. No launch option needed (Wine 11 enables the hidraw native path by default).
- Heroic (Epic / GOG): GE-Proton-DualSense + Steam fully quit + no
PROTON_PREFER_SDL. No launch option needed. (Earlier belief that Heroic needsPROTON_ENABLE_HIDRAWwas wrong — it was masked by the two gotchas below.)
⚠️ Linux gotchas that masquerade as "the dongle is broken" (all host-side)
- Steam running in the background grabs the pad from non-Steam (Heroic) games. Fully quit Steam, or disable Settings → Controller → PlayStation controller support.
- A global
PROTON_PREFER_SDL=1forces the SDL/Xbox path and suppresses native triggers. Keep it off (or per-game only). It's how you get a generic Xbox pad when a game lacks native DualSense. - XInput-only games can't do adaptive triggers — period. XInput has no trigger-resistance API, so titles that read the pad via XInput (e.g. Ghostrunner, Control on PC) give rumble only, on any OS, through any tool. Not a dongle limit.
Legend: ✅ = confirmed working flag-free through the dongle (this session, 2026-06-07).
