Hi all,

Two weeks ago we published the GPD WIN Gamepad update (V19 version), right now we have made some changes to this new version. So please find this updated version (V21). We hope this would be helpful for you. Many thanks.

The major improvement is that it increases the response pressing speed of the Gamepad.

According to my homemade xinput testing tool the polling rate is fixed now! I now get the same results as with an xbone controller (7-8 ms minimum pressing time).

This was a nice late Christmas present, thanks a lot wlin7730

Thanks for the update GPD.

Still waiting for the horizontal scrolling support and a driver version that offers mouse acceleration to be disabled, but this is a good start.

What about the left shoulder click while using the D-pad? Does it work now?

I hope this fixes Slime Rancher.
That game has problems recognizing third party Xinput controllers but works fine with the original Xbox 360 Gamepad.
Its actually a perfect handheld game!

Does it lock the bios?

How is the mouse behavior with this update? Is it accelerated, original or something else?

Stouffa · « **Reply #13 on:** December 26, 2016, 11:18:23 pm »

The mouse behavior is better with this version I think, the sudden acceleration is gone, there's a slight bit but only when really moving the nub far. As for the shoulder buttons issue, I'm not sure if that was fixed or not.

Unfortunately this problem is not fixed in the update...i just tried it.

But other than that this update is a lot better than the last one. Game controls became way more reponsive and the mouse control feels a lot better as well.

Thanks GPD, keep up the good work!

Wow, this is a really noticeable improvement on my end. Thank you to all that worked on this over at GPD. Was really worried this was just going to get swept under the rug, so thanks for making this device much more usable for me. =D

nex86 · « **Reply #16 on:** December 27, 2016, 08:39:00 pm »

Did the Update and Slime Rancher is still not recognizing any buttons....

skelton · « **Reply #17 on:** December 27, 2016, 10:24:09 pm »

GPd usually provide updates, And they collaborate with scene, so i wss prett sure the issue would be fixed.

Also spoke to the game developers.
They don't care if the game doesn't work with certain third party controllers as long as the original Microsoft controllers work.

In other words, thet dont know how to actually fix the code they probably wedged into their game, but wont admit their incompetence.
(You could possibly get around it by using something like joy2key and manually redirecting the controls)

Oh well, plenty of other games work great. The improved controller response is indeed very noticeable now.
(If they could fix the sleep problem and the memory managekent bluescreens then the GPD Win would be perfect to me

)
