been looking around for some guides on how to use my DS4 controller on pc but every program i see in tutorials aren't really helping.

Ive used x360ce but the joysticks are constantly moving.

does anyone have any good guides that work these days?

DS4 windows also doesn't work anymore

Windows 10 btw

Xpadder, is supposed to allow any controller to work on Windows.



/e Here is a link to their forums... https://xpadder.com/forum4/index.php

alright thanks, ill give it a shot

Supposedly, even for controllers or games that it can't support, you can download a controller image or game profile. They work like a plugin... sort of.

yea thats what im seeing, i think ill make my own image for "general use" instead of per game

E/ still having the issue where my joysticks "move" without being used though

With Xpadder?


/e There is really only two things that can make a joystick move by itself. The software or the hardware. Maybe the joysticks are just... shot.
I've had an old regular joystick die that way before. Think a big flight stick. The return springs in the joystick just got old. Then any micro vibration would cause movement.

i literally bought this controller and hour ago i highly doubt that

New or used. And I guess it could still be... bad. It could also be the electrical version of worn out return springs.
Can you test with a different controller?

If it only happens on one type of controller...then it's either a software or hardware issue with that controller.


If you got it at like... Best buy or similar...maybe it was a shelf (demo) model they were trying to unload. Maybe take it back to where you bought it and have them hook it up to a PC.

this is a known problem with ds4 controller which i found out after buying it. I'll keep looking into it and if i cant find a sollution ill probably return it and get an xbox controller instead since they are plug and play on pc

Someone answered that resetting the controller helped?




Just found this so who knows.
