Trigger Modes

The GC Pocket Adapter has three toggle-able trigger modes that can help make your gaming experience that much better! The modes all depend on your adjustable threshold, this can be adjusted in the system settings of the website.

Off

All analog inputs and digital inputs are forwarded as is, with no software changes.

Digital

This means that when the triggers are pulled past the set threshold, a digital button press is registered.

Lite

This means that when the a digital button is pressed, a light analog value of 85 will be sent without any digital button presses. This is great for trigger plugs.

Heavy

This means that when the a digital button is pressed, a heavy analog value of 255 will be sent. Along with a digital button press. This is also good for trigger plugs.

Controller Modes

GC Pocket Adapter Controller Modes:

DInput = Blue

Switch = Yellow

GC = Purple

XInput = Green

Each controller mode has a specific use:

  • DInput gets used for windows games and things of that nature, games from Steam for example.
  • Switch mode will connect to a Switch and function and allow you to use your controller on a Switch.
  • GC mode allows you to use your ProGCC like a GameCube controller, on PC, Mac, Switch, and Android.
  • XInput mode is newer than DInput mode, and will act as an Xbox 360 controller when used on PC.

Each controller mode has individual trigger modes, as well as a Z jump option.

Z Jump

Z Jump allows you to rebind what button you have your jump set to, you can swap it to X or Y, as well as leave it defaulted to Z.

Analog Acceleration

Some players have reported that they feel as though you have to put too much force into the sticks to register moves in some games. To help resolve this issue we have added Analog Acceleration. This feature adjusts the acceleration curve of the analog stick.

The default setting is 0, which turns the acceleration adjustment off.

Performance Mode

There is a problem on the Nintendo Switch when two or more devices initialize themselves as 1ms polling devices. To fix this, a performance mode has been added that will enable 1ms polling when it is turned on. This means that the polling will be slightly slower by about 3ms roughly on boot, to go back to 1ms polling you can enable performance mode. Performance mode can be enabled any time the adapter is in standby mode (Red LED). All you have to do is press both buttons at the same time while the LED is red. This will switch the adapter into 1ms polling mode, which is the old original mode.

Live Controller View

At the bottom of the page is a live view of the controller and its outputs for both the sticks and trigger buttons. You can also expand the bottom tab and see a live view of the snapback on your controller.
