What’s missing?
-Profiles for MacOS users
-The icon library is available in the base Stream Deck profile and can be copied over if needed for these devices
-Removed the independent camera selection buttons in both Mini and Plus profiles because of button constraints and general organization
-Moved “HUD” and “Watt Graph” controls into Settings on the Mini
Installation
There is a profile for each Stream Deck found in the .zip archive. If you’re using the Stream Deck+ you’ll want to import the Stream Deck+ profile for use.
Considerations
-Profile support is only for the PC version of Zwift. The MacOS version is coming soon.
-This is a pre-release. I’m seeking input on the profile and will be evolving it over time
-I’ve mapped all the commands that have key combinations in Zwift. If there is one missing let me know!
-The Stream Deck software must be up and running for the functions to work
-App focus is everything. Zwift doesn’t communicate with the Stream Deck so it must be the active app to receive input from the Stream Deck
-You may want to have your mouse handy
-The “End Ride” function skips Ride Summary
-“Close Popup” function closes any window
-Not all functions are applicable when at a starting gate grid
-As before, you can modify the profile to fit your needs - these are just accelerators to get you started
-Backup your profile before updating an existing profile
-I’m not responsible for any loss of data
