Good thread @MakaiOokami. I hope you will continue to update it as more titles are confirmed compatible.

Not many games on that list so far.

Yeah I haven't copied down any other group's lists. I wanted to go through a spell of my games and cooberate it with forum users.

I kinda want to copy and paste but I also want to run up 100 games and see what works.

I actually use a DS4 to play a few PC titles. One of the coolest things, is that with a simple .dll mod you can use anything that supports xinput (Xbox 360 controller support). If people want, I could do a complete tutorial on how to do this.

Please do. Definitely interested.

A tutorial would be awesome.

Cool, it has been a while since I set it up, but I will get it done.

There's a wrapper I used on the PS3 controller to get it working on PC so that I could play FFXI Online with PS3 controller. When I plugged in the DS4 it worked automagically so I guess it uses the same stuff.

Warning slight chance it could interfere with Octodad on PC.

Nice. Like that setup. I'll have to get on the PC at home and do that. I assumed that since Windows 7 & 8 automatically read the PS4 controller once plugged in, that it worked for any and all programs. But, strange enough, FF XIV: ARR on PC recognizes the controller yet it fails to actually function on the game.

Did you map out the controls, and change the preferred control layout to controller? It shouldn't be an issue.

Yep. I had the game try and run solely on gamepad settings. It just wouldn't pick it up. Even with this program the game didn't recognize it. Either way, I'm switching to PS4 when it releases.

Which program did you try.

The one I use? (dont' have ARR installed on PC)

Or the one Linux posted?

 

[MakaiOokami]

I consolidated my small list with a reddit list and then added like 20 games.

I used the program Dan linked to. I dug up a PS3 style wired PC controller out of my closet to remedy the issue. I just had to map the buttons in-game and I was good to go.

So you're using the PS4 controller no issue now?

No, I'm using a PC wired controller in the design of a Dual Shock 3. I'm not even going to worry about the PS4 controller on A Realm Reborn because I'll be getting that for the PS4 in April.

Are you getting the Collector's Edition? I've been thinking about it.
