Description

I'm using a N64 controller through the MayFlash USB adapter. The gamepad configuration is functional however the stick is problematic, pushing it all the way (in any direction) only registers as "barely pushed". I tried lowering the dead zone down to 0.010 but it didn't make a difference. From what I understand what I need to do is raising the peak but I can't find a way to do that. Did I miss or something or are we lacking a configuration property? Thank you.

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the analog-stick behavior with the N64 controller and MayFlash adapter, then trace the gamepad configuration handling for dead zone and peak sensitivity. Done means establishing whether peak adjustment is supported and fixing or documenting the configuration needed.
