iVIBRATE Ultimate Edition v3.01 is live!
v3.01 reintroduces Steam achievements, a new "Quick Quit" feature, updated video backgrounds for Linux, choice of video backgrounds, visual updates and bug fixes.
With this update came some more research into gamepad support for MacOS. iVIBRATE uses the Rewired input system for Unity. Unfortunately wireless support for PS4 gamepads is not possible, this quote is taken directly from the Rewired developer:
"Sony Dual Shock 4 special features are not supported on OSX via Bluetooth connection. There is no possible way to support these features of the DS4 via Bluetooth on OSX because the HID reports sent by the device through OSX I/O kit simply do not contain gyro or touchpad information and it does not accept output reports to set vibration or light color. This is a limitation of OSX I/O kit."
In saying that, via the Rewired documentation I have set up a guide of MacOS users on how to get Xbox gamepads working, which should work in wired and wireless modes. This is a 3rd party driver for MacOS so I cannot provide any more support other than the guide I have written here.
Patch Feature List
- Steam Achievements - Re-enabled for v3.01, Steam achievements have also been reworked to correctly track in game play time so achievements unlock correctly.
- "Quick Quit" - Press "Esc" on the keyboard to instantly quit iVIBRATE (while iVIBRATE is in focus), or use a combination of "Enable Cursor + Gamepad Lock" to instantly quit iVIBRATE right from the gamepad!
- Video Background Choice - From the Video Settings Page, choose between v2.52 or v3.0 backgrounds, allowing you to customise the way iVIBRATE looks.
- Updated Video Backgrounds - Video Backgrounds have been reworked to now work correctly in Linux for the first time! No more solid background!
- Gamepad Cursor Background - Now correctly appears behind gamepad cursor controls.
- Updated Title Text - Title text visual update

- Steam Name - Added to the Troubleshooting Settings Page, if you see your Steam name there that means you're connected to Steam.
- OSX Xbox Gamepad Guide - New guide on Steam for Mac users to get Xbox gamepads working, can be found here.
Look forward to hearing your feedback as always so I can continue to improve iVIBRATE.
Cheers.
