Quadstick Config Manager: a free desktop editor for the Quadstick

[Bassam Kamal]

I built a desktop app for editing and installing QuadStick profiles.
QCM, It is free and open source!

Hey guys! Right now the usual way to edit a profile is Google Sheets + an export add-on, then QMP to copy it over, which is Windows only.

One bad cell can break a profile, and a broken `default.csv` can make the drive vanish until you do a physical reset.

Now you don't have to worry about any of that!

It runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. (No Windows VM required.)

This app is an accessible editor that catches those mistakes before anything reaches the device.

- Map inputs on a picture of the hardware, or work in an old-school spreadsheet view.

- Autocomplete uses the real input, output, and function names, and one button switches every name between plain English, Xbox-style button names, and the raw tokens.
- Errors tell you which cell, what is wrong, and how to fix it. Bad cells turn red and block installation.

- Connect Google Drive once and every save automatically backs itself up to a Google Sheet.
- Tap to copy a link for any profile within the app, or paste someone else's link to import theirs.
- Big pretty buttons, keyboard shortcuts, screen reader labels, and light/dark themes.

Free downloads on GitHub, plus the Mac App Store and Microsoft Store:

Fred Davison has been very generous throughout development. He shared his sources and answered my questions. He has also seen the project and been encouraging. He organized the QuadStick Developers Discord as well, where I am active and shipping updates regularly.

It is open source and the README has the full development setup, so anyone who wants to fix something can contribute.

I am looking for testers. If you use a QuadStick, I want to know what breaks, what is confusing, and what is missing.

Oh niiiice ! Will try this soon and spread to French gamers :)

[Brian Sawyer]

Very cool!

Any plan for iPadOS/android app? I am just curious because I have my iPad on me most of the time and it would be nice to access and edit my sheets when I’m not using my QuadStick. And this interface looks very much friendly than sheets app.

Thanks

Thanks, Brian!

Fred mentioned this before about potentially utilizing the Quadstick's bluetooth capabilities,
definitely something I plan to look into once I can get reviews & feedback on this desktop app

[Gucci Mula]

This is cool. This is an little updated version than something I am using. But this has Bluetooth.

WOWW!! this is unreal

Used it today and it feels so good and easy!?!

The Google Drive stuff not on the stores yet but works from the GitHub release

BRAVO my man!!

Definiitely should be the new official software!

For all my sheets I get the error "Error D72: This cell is longer than 64 characters, the device's keyword limit. The device gives up on the row here. (Shorten the cell.)"

I think it's cell D 6 on my preference sheet. These sheets all load and work fine in my Quadstick. Is 64 characters limit accurate? I guess I could remove that text.

So far looks really cool. I like that template feature, should come in handy.

Oops, here's an example..

Thank you for creating and sharing this, Bassam! 

I made a similar tool but took a more visual approach. I'd love to connect and share ideas since this is something we're both passionate about. My aim is for the community to have as many options as possible so they can choose the tool that works best for them.

[Brian Sawyer]

good job!

i just used it to edit one of my sheets !

Connect Google Drive once and every save automatically backs itself up to a Google Sheet.

 

how do i do that 

[Bassam Kamal]

Hey Steven,

Thanks for trying the app!

Good catch, that was a bug on my end. Just fixed it today!

The checker was applying the limit to the whole row instead of the name and value columns!

It'll be right in the next update, also glad the templates were useful!

[Bassam Kamal]

Hey Brian, the Google Drive feature is out on the GitHub release and awaiting review by the Microsoft and App store!

Please reach out on the discord for any more questions, I'll be happy to answer more promptly
