ControlStadia allows arbitrary mapping of input devices to a "standard" virtual input controller which works with Stadia!

▶

ControlStadia is a powerful Chrome extension that enhances your Stadia gaming experience by allowing you to arbitrarily map up to four physical gamepads into a single "standard" virtual gamepad compatible with Stadia. This tool lets you customize axis inputs by scaling and offsetting to fine-tune sensitivity or adapt ranges according to your preference.

Whether you're looking to use traditional controllers or experiment with unique hardware—like steering wheels, pedals, flight yokes, or throttle quadrants—ControlStadia makes it possible. Easy to install, simply refresh Stadia after adding the extension and configure your virtual gamepad via the extension icon. ControlStadia also supports adjustment examples for axis scaling and offset, enhancing compatibility with a wide range of input devices. For setup assistance, testing, or to report issues, users can visit the official GitHub page.

User reviews

ControlStadia is praised for enabling button mapping and compatibility with various controllers, including older steering wheels, enhancing gameplay on Google Stadia and other games. Users appreciate its usefulness for customizing input. However, it faces issues with correct recognition of some controllers, conflicts with physical buttons, and buggy behavior due to lack of developer support. Multiple users requested added support for platforms like GeForce Now and features like secondary button mapping to improve functionality.

pretty strange, it won't open anything and it does not work, but it might have good performance once it gets fixed so 3 stars I guess.

I couldn't get the SteelSeries Stratus Duo to work with this extension. It recognizes it as a Xbox 360 controller.

i just discovered this yesterday, very very very useful for Elder Scroll Online... I would ask to the developer t create a second button line. I mean, right now we can choose 1 key for 2 buttons. which is amazing and can just create combos. but can U creat a secondary button line, to have 2 keys for 1 button. bcz some combos dont allow to use obly 1 button, and it would be a help if i could choose one free button for that particular option. do u know what i mean?
