Xoutput.v0.11 May 2026

1. Executive Summary Xoutput v0.11 is a mid-version release of an open-source application designed to bridge the gap between modern XInput controllers (Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S) and older Windows games or software that only support DirectInput. Unlike generic mapping tools, Xoutput translates XInput signals into emulated DirectInput device commands, enabling native-like compatibility without requiring hardware modifications or driver-level patches.
