Lutris is not supported in this bug tracker; please test with plain
Wine-Staging or (ideally) upstream Wine.

Does the bug occur in upstream (non-Staging) Wine?

Hello,

With a bit of search I found this in the AppDB:

--- quote The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel ---
If in-game camera starts constantly spinning, disable your gamepad (wine
control or other means) or fix the button mapping (in my case with DualShock 4
- Rx,Ry (L2 and R2 buttons) and Z,Rz (right stick) axis were mixed up, as well
as some other buttons, connecting the gamepad over Bluetooth with ds4drv fixed
that)
--- end quote ---
https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=35588&...

Please run 'wine control' and check the configuration of your device.

Regards.

Yes, button mapping is fucked up, by gamepad works fine with other games/apps,

Well, not relevant to this game, but *perhaps* relevant to the problem:

1. I've seen something similar with my gamepad in a different game where the
game acts as if a direction was constantly pressed in the title screen, even
though gamepad is only plugged in, not used at all
2. that gamepad is discovered as both js and event...but the mapping of axes
(as shown by relevant 'wine control') differs between these two, which strikes
me as not quite sane (because AFAIK I didn't do any extra calibrating/mapping
for the pad)

Hello,

I guess event and js device are handled by different code parts and they are
treated as independent devices?

When the device is not used in the application, the workaround is to disconnect
it, but I understand that the OP wants to play the game with the gamepad?

@OP, can you try disabling one of the device at a time in 'wine control': js
and event for your gamepad, and see if it behaves better with one or the other?

Regards.

Of course they are.
The thing is that they still should be using the same axes for the same pad
presses is both paths.

Yeah, the *workaround*.
The solution would be figuring out why the bogus events are produced in wine,
even though:

a) pad is not in physical use
b) neither js nor event device is producing any events on its own - not
according to native monitoring tools

Perhaps I should mention, that around wine 4.21 I've tried randomly poking
driver_joyGetPosEx, but didn't get any positive effect.

Hello,

If the axis are incorrectly mapped, non-existent axis will emit bogus events,
directly inside Wine.

There are already multiple 'axis/button mapping is wrong' bugs:
https://bugs.winehq.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NE...

Since nobody gave more detailed information on what happens in 'wine control'
or when disconnecting the device, I assume that it's a mapping issue and will
simply quote bug 29985 and mark duplicate:

--- quote comment 1 from bug 29985 ---
So you want to remap your axis? Take a look here under "DirectInput":
http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys
--- end of quote ---

--- quote comment 5 from bug 29985 ---
The bug is about Wine picking "wrong" mapping for your joystick. The workaround
for it is to remap axis via registry. If you need help with that - ask forum.
--- end of quote ---

Regards.

...well, perhaps not that particular bugs, but sure - I'd be surprised it a
true duplicate of this particular bug didn't exist.

Yet...

1. Could a solution be found for wine to not randomly pick different *default*
mappings of the same physical device only because it's a different logical
device ?
 On one hand, I can see where that would sometimes be useful, on the other, it
looks a bit too random.

2. The bogus events are almost certainly generated by wine.
