I think it needs a swing and fly for a bit before it gets triggered? Or yours just don't get scared as quickly, lol. BTW Steam HAS to be open and connected to the controller at the time you try this. Maybe that is the solution to "your problem :p"?
oh that could be it.
now i will have to try it again 🥲
Oh, I just noticed something. Just started Steam and tried it again and again, but it wouldn't scream. But Steam was running in the background. Turns out, Steam client has to be in focus on the screen too. At least that was the case for me. First try it screamed. Also quite impressive if you think about it, as there are no speakers.
yes, also someone reverse engineered the firmware and figured out the hidden commands that are used to do that, and made it available so you can use it to play anything you want: https://github.com/Pixel1011/SteamHapticsPlayer
