VitaOxiPad is a client-server application that turns your PS Vita into (almost) a DualShock 4. The PS Vita acts as a server to which the PC client will be connected within the local network (WiFi).
The server part is written in C++, the client part is written in Rust.
Why Oxi?
Now there are many projects with the name VitaPad. It's very confusing.
Oxi - oxidation, the process that causes rusting.
What works
| Feature | Support | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Buttons | ✅ | - |
| Sticks | ✅ | - |
| L1 and R1 | ✅ | Press only, as the PS Vita does not have analog triggers. This emulates a full press |
| L2/R2 and L3/R3 emulation | ✅ | Can be used of the back or front PS Vita digitizer for it |
| Select and Start | ✅ | - |
| Accelerometer and gyroscope | ✅ | A little less accurate than the DualShock 4, but still usable |
| DualShock 4 digitizer emulation | ✅ | Emulates up to two-finger simultaneous input, same as DualShock 4 |
| Any configuration | ✅ | You can choose from ready-made configurations |
| DS4Windows support | ✅ | You need to enable Moonlight support[*] |
| Sound | ❌ | Probably will never be realized |
[*] - Moonlight support can be found in the schmaldeo DS4Windows fork. This option can be found in Settings -> Device Options -> Virtual Controller Support.

Configurations
There are currently 4 DualShock 4 configurations emulations that can be selected at client startup:
| Configurations name | PS Vita L1\R1 | PS Vita front digitizer | PS Vita rear digitizer |
|---|---|---|---|
standart
|
L1\R1 | L3\R3 | L2\R2 |
alt_triggers
|
L2\R2 | L3\R3 | L1\R1 |
rear_touchpad
|
L1\R1 | upper area - L2\R2, lower area - L3\R3 | DualShock 4 digitizer |
front_touchpad
|
L1\R1 | DualShock 4 digitizer | upper area - L2\R2, lower area - L3\R3 |
To better understand the emulation behavior, you can run 3D Controller Overlay after connecting your PS Vita.
Installation
The server has to be installed on the PS Vita and the client on the PC.
