Can be used to simulate multiple controllers, useful in games featuring native split-screen multiplayer support such as Rocket League.

Issues unresolved

Can't use controllers with Unity engine games

Unity is incompatible due to the Unity input manager using Raw Input instead of DirectInput.[1] See Controller for other alternatives.

Problem setting right stick on some controllers such as SteelSeries 3GC

X360CE shows controller is offset as follows: 32767;-32768

Issues fixed

Emulator not being detected

Some games use xinput1_4.dll (e.g. OlliOlli).
Note that this will not work for Unity engine games.
