It's time for the Mid-October Update!
We've packed some exciting new features and improvements for you. Here’s what’s new:
🚀 New Features & Improvements
Application Center & Settings: The top-right menu has been upgraded!
Click the new 🔍 magnifying glass icon to find and launch all your Start Menu apps directly from GCM. You'll find a new ⚙️ settings icon that takes you straight to the Windows settings for quick and easy access. We're getting closer to the point where we can make the rest of Windows invisible. 😉 Just saying!
Window Maximize Engine: GCM now includes a brand-new Window Maximize engine! It automatically detects your active window and maximizes it. For games, it intelligently attempts to switch them to a borderless windowed mode for a seamless experience. 🎮
Improved Playnite Support: We've enhanced our Playnite integration. GCM now jumps to the Playnite window more effectively and executes commands with greater precision, making the experience feel more reliable and native.
Mouse & Keyboard Control: Say goodbye to third-party tools! We've successfully integrated a native mouse and keyboard control system directly into GCM, similar to JoyXoff. To activate, simply hold the Back button + press RS for 2 seconds. You can also bind the keyboard to a shortcut for even quicker access! ⌨️🖱️
Controller Navigation: The gamepad controls have been completely overhauled for speed and responsiveness. Navigating through the app should now feel much smoother and more native.
Short Announcements & Information:
As we mentioned previously, we will be selecting one handheld device to receive 100% dedicated support. This will include custom-mapped special keys, unique system processes, and more. Stay tuned for the announcement!
We know you have many feature requests, and we're working hard to implement them. Please be patient with us as we continue to roll out new updates. Your feedback is invaluable, and we're listening!
Download the update in GCM Settings, start GCM, and it is best to restart your device.
