Console Controller Mapper

Generates a drop-in PS2Recomp pad file so any controller, keyboard or touch layout maps to the DualShock 2 report your way.

Dev & CodingAdvanced★ 276⑂ 34AI score 8/10Last updated: Oct 22, 2026

What it does

  • Reads a mapping from console/controls.json (layout preset plus per-button overrides) and writes console/ps2_pad.cpp, a drop-in replacement for PS2Recomp's runtime pad file.
  • Supports radial deadzone, invert Y, stick swap, analog trigger threshold, keyboard bindings, two players and Android touch zones.
  • Backs up the stock file to console/backups/ps2_pad.cpp.orig and offers a one-command restore.
  • Optional --replay mode records and replays input scripts for repeatable test runs.

Who it's for

  • PS2Recomp users running recompiled PS2 games they legally own.
  • Players whose Xbox or Switch Pro face buttons land in the wrong place.
  • Anyone shipping the same port to desktop, Steam Deck, Android or Vita with different input needs.

Examples

  1. "My Switch Pro A/B are swapped" → init --layout switch-labels, then gen and install --repo ~/PS2Recomp.
  2. "Invert the camera" → set invert_y: true, regenerate, and do an incremental rebuild of one .cpp.
  3. "Script a menu walkthrough for testing" → gen --replay, record with PS2X_INPUT_RECORD, replay via /console-tester.

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on AI Skill Mart.
Copy the console-controller folder from the GitHub repo Jakeschincariol/console-skill into my ~/.claude/skills/console-controller/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/Jakeschincariol/console-skill.git /tmp/console-skill && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/console-skill/console-controller ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/Jakeschincariol/console-skill.git.
  3. Create the skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills.
  4. Copy the skill: cp -r console-skill/console-controller ~/.claude/skills/.
  5. Confirm Python 3 is available with python3 --version.
  6. Note the path to your PS2Recomp checkout (e.g. ~/PS2Recomp) — install needs it.
  7. Restart Claude Code and ask something like "remap my Xbox pad for the port".
