Valve releases Steam Controller CAD files under Creative Commons license

Valve 以知识共享许可协议发布 Steam 控制器 CAD 文件

With the rather excellent Steam Controller now on its way to the lucky few that managed to order one, Valve has released a full set of CAD files for their new hardware. 随着表现相当出色的 Steam 控制器正陆续送达那些有幸订购到的用户手中，Valve 现已发布了其新硬件的全套 CAD 文件。

The idea is to let enterprising modders create their own Steam Controller add-ons, like skins, charging stands, grip extenders or smartphone mounts. 此举旨在让富有进取心的改装玩家能够自行制作 Steam 控制器的配件，例如外壳贴纸、充电底座、握把延长件或手机支架。

The Valve release includes files for the external shell (“surface topology”) of the Controller and Puck, with a .STP, .STL and engineering diagram of each device, with the latter showing areas that must remain uncovered to let the device maintain its signal strength and otherwise function as designed. Valve 此次发布的文件包含了控制器及其配套 Puck 的外壳（“表面拓扑”）文件，每种设备都提供了 .STP、.STL 格式文件以及工程图纸。工程图纸明确标注了必须保持裸露的区域，以确保设备能够维持信号强度并按设计正常运行。

Valve has previously released CAD files for its Steam Deck handheld, Valve Index VR suite and even the original Steam Controller a decade ago, so this release is welcomed but not unexpected. Valve 此前曾发布过 Steam Deck 掌机、Valve Index VR 套件，甚至是十年前初代 Steam 控制器的 CAD 文件，因此这次发布虽然受到欢迎，但也在意料之中。

The release is under a fairly restrictive Creative Commons license which allows for non-commercial use and requires attribution and sharing of designs back to the community. 此次发布采用了一项限制性较强的知识共享（Creative Commons）许可协议，允许非商业用途，但要求必须注明出处，并将设计成果回馈给社区。

However, the license also suggests that commercial entities interested in making accessories for the Steam Controller or its Puck can contact Valve directly to discuss terms. 不过，该许可协议也指出，有意为 Steam 控制器或其 Puck 制造配件的商业实体可以直接联系 Valve 商讨相关条款。

What is your ultimate Steam Controller or Steam Controller Puck accessory? Let us know in the comments below. For me, it would definitely be a smartphone clip - playing through something relatively low-stakes like Forza Horizon 6 via Moonlight game streaming on a phone would be slick. 你心目中终极的 Steam 控制器或 Puck 配件是什么？欢迎在下方评论区告诉我们。对我来说，那绝对是一个手机夹——通过 Moonlight 游戏串流在手机上玩像《极限竞速：地平线 6》这样相对轻松的游戏，体验一定会很棒。
