ConsolePort or Controller support suggestions

Post#1 » Tue Jul 21, 2026 9:26 pm

I can't get ConsolePort to work. Does anybody know how to get it, or a similar addon to work? I'm a controller gamer and I don't understand why Blizzard never thought to add GOOD controller support in this game. >.< If i can't get a controller working I won't be playing much.

I'm playing on my handheld with Console Experience Classic addon.

Be sure to also download interact.dll and addon files and add interact.dll in dlls.conf

Thanks! I got that working...mostly. Sometimes, I have to manually recenter my mouse cursor or else it'll randomly flick my camera to the side. And looting doesn't work, so I have to auto-loot everythng or reach for my mouse to grab only the loot I want. Have you run into these issues?

Do you mean without any addons? How? You can bind buttons to keyboard keys at will, but isn't it hard to visualize which button maps to which slot in the action bar? And how do you deal with camera movement?

Edit: I tried to make the game playable through Steam Input alone, and it's going surprisingly well.
  • By mapping right click to joystick touch, I got nearly seamless camera panning. It actually works better than the addon's method (which is designed to work for all controllers), but on the downside, it requires you keep your thumb on the joystick. You can't flick it from the side.
  • By mapping the left trackpad to a radial menu, I can easily access various panels, e.g. character, spellbook, quest log...
  • By mapping each trigger to its corresponding action page, I got the visual feedback of the action bar changing my spells depending on which trigger is held down.
However, I've had some trouble switching to yet another, 4th action page when both triggers are held down. I made it work through mode shifts, but it seems to require a small delay between trigger presses, which is a deal-breaker. I'll try lowing the trigger threshold for the mode shift and see if that helps (when I can sign in again).

I wonder how the addon achieved the same functionality. It doesn't do anything in the Steam Input layer for this, but then how?
