is it possible to connect a gamepad to a game that is on a remote desktop via remotly?

Hi Wertzmp31,

Welcome to our Remotly community forum!

Yes, of course. You will need the installer (portable does not install the driver) and allow ViGEm bus driver installation (the Remotly installer will ask at the end of the installation process about this). In version 1.12.0 there will be a real time remote and local gamepad indicator located at the top of the main window.

1. Driver not installed (after pressing question about bus driver installation will be shown):

2. Driver installed (OK) no remote gamepads connected at this moment:

3. Driver installed (OK) and 1 (max 4) remote gamepad connected:

Please let us know if you have more questions!

I forgot to mention that you can use either a physical remote gamepad connected to the remote PC/Android (and soon iOS) or you can use the on-screen Android gamepad buttons that will also act as a virtual remote gamepad on the remote machine.
