As I mentioned earlier, L2 and R2 are assigned as both buttons and analog triggers, so you can just assign L2 and R2 as buttons, then you're set! Since there seems to be no real reason for L2 and R2 to be analog, there's no reason to go through the trouble. When you get to the actual trigger section, keep holding down the triggers halfway, and just hit Circle to skip calibration for triggers. You can start calibrating the analog sticks once you're sure the dot is in the center and steady. Pushing it too hard or not hard enough will move the dot away from the center, which will screw with calibration. If you manage to calibrate it properly, you don't want to hit the wrong button by accident and cancel instead of save, after all.ĭuring calibration, hold down both L2 and R2 just halfway so that the dot stays in the center. Since those bars aren't centered like 'Z Axis' and 'Z Rotation', PSO2 is reading them as if the analog is being pushed in that direction, when that's just their default position.īefore calibrating, skip through the in-game calibration wizard until you get to the button assignment page, and make sure all of the buttons are mapped properly (they should be different from the XB360 controller setup that InputMapper gives).
See 'X Rotation' and 'Y Rotation' here? Those are for L2 and R2, respectively (they're also Buttons 7 and 8, for some reason). The reason for this is because of the way that the computer reads the analog for the L2 and R2 triggers: Whenever you attempt to calibrate the analog sticks in-game, you'll notice that the calibration dot is already at the top without even touching anything.
in order to play! However, those who have already attempted to use the controller without these drivers may have noticed that there's something quite wrong with controller calibration. So it will be better if you enable the Start with Windows option in Input mapper’s General settings.With the release of Episode 4 and the coming PS4 release, Sega has enabled native Dualshock 4 support in PSO2 on PC, meaning you no longer have to use InputMapper/DS4Tool/etc. Last but not the least, InputMapper has to be run everytime you want to use your PS4’s dualshock 4 controller on a PC. As a surprise, you can also use the Dualshock 4 controllers track bar to move the Windows cursor. Apart form the key settings, you can also change the configuration for the trackpad and the light bar too. That’s it, you can now use your DS4 controller. Click on Edit Settings to view or edit the key configuration of the Dualshock 4 controller.
How to use PS4’s Dualshock Controller on Windows with InputMapper
Tools Requiredīefore you proceed ahead, here are the two tools that you are require to be installed on Windows in order to use the DS4 controller with your PC. As InputMapper will be emulating the Xbox 360 controller, you will have to download and install the drivers for Xbox 360 controller. For those who want to use their PS4’s Dualshock 4 controller with a PC, here’s how you can do so.
