About

This project is to bring Xbox controller support to StarCraft II, StarCraft: Remastered and WarCraft III: Reforged.

NOTE: This does work for WarCraft III Classic and Original StarCraft, but they have to be on the latest patch.

Additional Information

• If your computer has a touchscreen monitor (Ex: GPDWin) and you touch the screen, it will make the cursor disappear. You have to move the mouse to re-display the cursor. If using a GPDWin, switch it to mouse mode, move it around, then back to game controller mode.

• All games must use a Windowed fullscreen mode for the overlay to show. Please use 1920 x 1080 game display for the overlay to fit properly.

• If you want to use Steam to stream to your game, add Blizzard_Controller.exe as a game to Steam. After launching Blizzard_Controller, click the button "Start Battle.net". Otherwise I recommend using Rainway, Parsec or Moonlight for ease of use.

• Battle.net must have you logged in and be running in the background prior to Blizzard_Controller launching, or else you'll get a "Required application data not found" error message.

• Games (SC1, SC2, WC3) must be launched by the Steam remote user. Please have the games closed prior to the remote session starting or the controller will not work.
