* [[Config_Editors#gimx-config|gimx-config]] is the general purpose config editor, and the most complete of the 2 editors.
* [[Config_Editors#gimx-fpsconfig|gimx-fpsconfig]] is the config editor for FPS games, easier to use, but far less complete.

==Notes==

* gimx-config can edit configs produced by gimx-fpsconfig, and vice-versa.

* To open the configuration directory, click on File>Open config directory in gimx-config, gimx-fpsconfig, or gimx-launcher.
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/OpenConfigDirectory.png https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/OpenConfigDirectory.png]</div>

* In GIMX 0.51 and earlier, configurations were saved in C:\Program Files\GIMX\config (Windows 32bits) or C:\Program Files (x86)\GIMX\config (Windows 64bits).

==gimx-fpsconfig==

gimx-fpsconfig is a config editor that helps to use a keyboard and a mouse in FPS games.<br />
This means it only allows to:
* bind mouse and keyboard buttons to buttons
* bind mouse and keyboard buttons to the left stick
* bind the mouse axes to the right stick and edit the translation parameters
* use 2 profiles (first = hip fire, second = aiming down the sights, second profile trigger is the mouse right button, with switch back enabled)

===Start===
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Start_gimx-fpsconfig.jpg https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Start_gimx-fpsconfig.jpg]</div>

===Bind controls===
To bind a button to a button or a direction of the left stick, click on the GUI button (cross, l1, select, left stick up, etc), and click on the button (w, space, left button, etc).<br >
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Bind_button.jpg https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Bind_button.jpg]</div>

===Set mouse translation parameters===
The mouse translation parameters can be edited in the bottom part of the GUI. It is advised to calibrate these parameters through the [[Mouse_Calibration|Mouse Calibration]] tool.<br />
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/mouse_translation-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/mouse_translation-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg]</div>

===Set control labels===
To set a label, click on menu 'Advanced>Edit Label', click on the GUI button, and set the label.<br />
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Edit_labels-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Edit_labels-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg]</div>
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/edit_label_select-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/edit_label_select-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg]</div>
The label will appear in the GUI button tooltip.<br />
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Label-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Label-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg]</div>

===Set the mouse DPI===
In case the config is built from scratch (menu 'File>New'), the mouse DPI has to be set.<br />
The value is used by the calibration tests that are run by the [[Mouse_Calibration|Mouse Calibration]] tool.<br />
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Mouse_DPI-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Mouse_DPI-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg]</div>

===Convert the mouse sensitivity===
The "Convert sensitivity" GUI button allows to adjust the mouse sensitivity according to source/destination DPI values.<br />
It is useful to convert a config that was built for a mouse that runs at a different DPI setting.<br />
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Convert_mouse_sens-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Convert_mouse_sens-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg]</div>

===Auto-bind controls===
To auto bind controls according to the labels defined in a reference configuration, click on menu 'Advanced>Auto-bind controls'. The configuration to modify and the reference configuration should have labels configured.<br />
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Auto_bind-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Auto_bind-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg]</div>
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/SelectReferenceConfig.png https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/SelectReferenceConfig.png]</div>
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Auto_bind_done-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Auto_bind_done-gimx-fpsconfig.jpg]</div>
Controls not found or in conflict are colored in red.

--todo: update
==gimx-config==

===Start===
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Start_gimx-config.jpg https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Start_gimx-config.jpg]</div>

===Button tab===
Bind controls (button or axis, from any device) to controller buttons (cross, select, etc.).
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Button_tab-gimx-config.png https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Button_tab-gimx-config.png]</div>

===Axis tab===
Bind controls (button or axis, from any device) to controller axes (left stick x, left stick y, pressure sensitive buttons, etc.).
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Axis_tab-gimx-config.png https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Axis_tab-gimx-config.png]</div>

===Overall tab===
This is the place to configure:
* the profile trigger, which is the button that activate the profile
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/ProfileTrigger.png https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/ProfileTrigger.png]</div>
:The profile activation can be delayed (for ex. 100ms).<br />
:If the switch back checkbox is enabled, GIMX will switch back to the previous profile when the button is released.<br />
:Typical use cases that allow to tweak the ADS mouse parameters in FPS games:
:# second profile with right mouse button as trigger, and switch back enabled; right mouse button is bind to the ADS button (for ex. l1) in both profiles<br />
:# first and second profiles with right mouse button as trigger, and switch back disabled; right mouse button is bind to the ADS button (for ex. l1) in the first profile only ("toggle mode")<br />
* mouse options
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/MouseOptions.png https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/MouseOptions.png]</div>
[[Mouse_Calibration#Smoothing|Mouse smoothing]] can be configured there if needed.<br />
The mouse mode can be either "aiming" or "driving/flying".
* axis intensities
<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/AxisIntensity.png https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/AxisIntensity.png]</div>
:This can be used to have a precise control over a stick with buttons, or over a pressure-sensitive button with buttons.<br />
:Typical use case for FPS games:<br />
:* WASD is bind to the left stick<br />
:* mouse wheel down and up resp. decrease and increase the left stick intensity<br />
:* dead zone = 20 (lowest stick position along each axis)<br />
:* steps = 3 (number of stick positions along each axis)

===Controllers===
This part is only applicable for bluetooth.<br />
Up to 7 sixaxis controllers, each using a different bluetooth dongle, can be emulated by GIMX.<br />
Each controller can be configured independently.

<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Controllers-gimx-config.png https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Controllers-gimx-config.png]</div>

===Profiles===
There are up to 8 profiles per controller.<br />
For example, it's possible to define a profile for aiming: copy-paste the profile #1 to profile #2, define the right mouse click as profile #2 trigger with switch back (Overall tab), and adjust the mouse sensitivity & acceleration (Axis tab).

<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Profiles-gimx-config.png https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/Profiles-gimx-config.png]</div>

===Config conversion===
Items of the "Edit" menu that allow to convert a configuration:

<div class="image200px">[https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/2.3_2_replace_mouse_dpi.png https://gimx.fr/img/screenshots/tuto/2.3_2_replace_mouse_dpi.png]</div>

The "Replace Mouse" item allows to change the mouse name and id.<br />
The "Convert mouse sensitivity" item allows to adjust the mouse sensitivity according to source/destination DPI values.<br />
The "Replace Keyboard" item allows to change the keyboard name and id.

===Erweitert===

* Multiple mice and keyboards: check this box if you want two mice or two keyboards to be independent.
:Use case: use the mouse wheel of a keypad (such as the n52te) independently from the mouse wheel.
* Link controls: updates bindings in all controller profiles.
:Use case: a same binding is defined in profiles 1 & 2; modify the binding in profile 1: the binding in profile 2 is updated.
* Auto-bind controls: remap bindings according to the labels; the configuration to modify and the reference configuration should have labels configured (column 'Label' in Button and Axis tabs).
