Joystick In ARC

User-inserted image

The picture shows the up, down, left and right buttons are hard linked to the joystick, (buttons do not act like this) and this does not make sense.

How do I map the up, down, left and right game pad buttons to the Joystick/Buttons settings in ARC ?

Is there a way to map the touch pad and control the PS4 light on the front of the controller?

Thanks Steve

Hi DJ

Thanks for the quick response :-)

Good old MS huh, I dont know what we would do without them, but the way they do some things is wierd.

Can the driver be changed/hacked to have those buttons added?

I tried the Logitech S710 as recomended, (in direct mode) with same result obviously.

Surely people using an xbox controller in windows have use of the dpad buttons when playing games in windows, how does that work?

Will an xbox controller allow the dpad to be used?

When using that PS4 controller in steam the dpad buttons are used seperate to the joystick, how is steam doing it?

Thanks Steve

Wow DJ

I don't know what to say, that was super quick

I didnt even get to finish watching your vids on how to make a plugin.

I tried it with xbox controller connected bluetooth directly to windows and ps4 controller (my preference) configured to DS4Windows connecting to windows via ps bluetooth dongle, and both work great.

Thanks again mate, Im sure a lot of ppl will appreciate it.

Have a good one lol
