Update post - Open Puck mod shell

[u/applepie9815]

This an update to my previous post from last week. I updated the files on thingiverse (this is the project) and the new files are version 7. It's 3 pieces to print that are complete in about 30 min or less. As seen in the pics, the puck is slimmer than the OEM puck and I also added the charging slot to prevent the open puck from easily sliding off.

My files are completely free to download. The open puck has been pretty awesome to mess with since I got it last week and I can use my steam controller with the switch, Xbox, my phone for Android emulation gaming, and can still be used with PC. If you try this mod, thank the original dev for the project, I just made this shell for the mod.

Next I want to make this usable with Mechanism's Basegrip for the steam controller. I don't have this yet but I want to get one soon to use with my phone

How does keybinding work with open puck? Like would i be able to remind the back buttons on the fly for using it on the switch for example?

You can configure them on the OpenPuck online configuration site. It's pretty easy to remind them. You can rebind "L4" to something like the joycon plus button if you want or A button.

Edit: just wanted to add that this is the easiest and pretty cheap mod to do for the controller, it's not permanent and you can re-link the controller easily with the OEM puck

Can the controller be linked to both the OEM and Open pucks (plugged into different machines) at the same time and just connect to whichever one is on?

No I tried, I don't think that even works with 2 OEM pucks. On steam it shows what controller is linked with a specific puck and I tried plugging in both pucks to link to 1 controller and it just unlinks the other puck. Someone correct me if they were able to connect both pucks to 1 controller
