Xbox Controller Vibration Fix for macOS — community mod

[MrLynx]

Hey everyone,

 

  If you play Fishing Planet on macOS with an Xbox controller, you've probably

  noticed that vibration doesn't work. It works fine on Windows and PS4, but on

  Mac — nothing. The game actually has vibration support built in, but Unity

  disables it on macOS.

 

  I made a fix for this. It's a small wrapper that hooks into the game's runtime

   and redirects vibration commands through Steam Input API.

 

  What it does:

  - Enables controller vibration on macOS (bite + reeling)

  - Customizable vibration strength via config file (separate settings for bite

  and reeling, individual motor control)

  - Double-tap haptic feedback on fish bite

  - Trigger motor support (Xbox Elite / DualSense)

  - Test vibration on game start to confirm it's working

 

  Tested on:

  - macOS Tahoe 26.3

  - Xbox Elite Controller Series 2

  - Fishing Planet 6.0.4

  - Steam Input enabled

 

  Installation takes a couple of minutes, no compilation needed — pre-built

  binaries included.

  Hope this helps other Mac anglers out there!
