I bought the Tartarus V2 Pro as an upgrade for my HORI TAC F14, which also has a single analog thumbstick. The V2 Pro is in almost every aspect a more premium product than the TAC F14, EXCEPT:
- The HORI TAC F14 Configurator allows you to map the thumbstick to either analog Left Stick or analog Right Stick. I always bind it to Left Stick for movement, freeing up WASD binds for utility keys.
- The Razer Tartarus V2 Pro analog thumbstick only reports as Right Stick, and I don’t see a way to remap this in Synapse 4.0.14.2609150422!
- In FFXIV, there is a serviceable workaround - in System Configuration, you can use Calibrate Controller to tell FFXIV to treat the stick as LS. (You can even use Calibrate to change which direction is up!)
- However, most games (e.g. Valheim) do not let you map Right Stick to movement! And thus the Tartarus V2 Pro analog stick can only ever be used to swivel the camera - but I have my mouse for that! Thus, I either have to:
- Bind the Thumbstick to Digital 4-way or 8-way, defeating the purpose of having an analog thumbstick, or
- Keep WASD binds on buttons 9/14/15/16, defeating the purpose of having an analog thumbstick.
While I don’t play GW2, I noticed the product page advertises the thumbstick as being usable for movement in that game, so I’m very surprised that it reports as RS exclusively and cannot be rebound to LS, so hopefully this feature is planned at some point? Is there some other sort of way to get this working
Thanks!
P.S.: Thanks for making a more upscale version of that gamepad - love the depth of features available here and the overall make!
