ControllerHUD View File ControllerHUD is a lightweight AutoHotkey v2 utility that displays fully customizable on-screen notifications with connect and disconnect sounds and volume adjustment when game controllers connect and disconnect — even over fullscreen games. Built for multi-controller setups, it monitors USB and Bluetooth devices in real time and shows styled OSD pop-ups with XInput player number detection, per-device naming and color coding, and battery level display for Xbox controllers. The notification system features deep visual customization including adjustable fonts, colors, opacity, corner radius, padding, and text offsets. Borders support per-side control with color modes (device, status, or custom) and an optional outer ring. Three animation styles — Brightness, Grow, and Fade — can be assigned independently for connect and disconnect events, with slide-in entry, bounce easing, and configurable stacking in any direction. Sound notifications support global, per-player, and per-device overrides for connect, disconnect, and low battery events, with a volume slider that scales relative to system volume. A low battery monitor periodically checks Xbox controllers and blinks an alert when battery is critical. Six saveable presets store complete visual configurations and can be assigned per device, allowing different controllers to trigger different notification styles. Three factory presets are included out of the box: a classic bordered look, a minimal circle, and a clean square design. A hover-preview system lets you compare all animation styles side by side from the settings panel. ControllerHUD is designed to work seamlessly alongside DS4Windows and HidHide for PlayStation controller setups. Submitter Daxtonius Submitted 04/12/2026 Category Third-party Apps and Plugins
