Hi,
 
Hi,
  
I think I can clear up some confusion here. As mentioned in the [[CGamingWiki:Editing_guide/Input|Editing guide]], the '''Steam Hook input (legacy mode)''' is all about whether the rudimentary Steam Input functionality of the Steam client, the basic XInput emulator that is, can hook and ''manipulate'' the input of the game or not. Note that this parameter is not relevant at all for games that use the full Steam Input API functionality as those don't rely on the basic XInput emulator.
