Also can use the ps4 dongle to connect ds4 for wireless, no idea why its so expensive on Amazon, I think it was $15 on release

Do you have a source for that? Because Valve seems to get by fine with the Steam Controller. I think this is probably the actual reason, not Microsoft.

u/MrDelval · 2 pointsr/Steam

Do you have a "Sony's DualShock wireless dongle" if so then you can connect wireless via big picture mode.

Yeah I just plug into a usb slot on the back, Sony DUALSHOCK 4 USB Wireless Adapter - PlayStation 4 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KHFIO82/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_P25wCbPX4ZD4R . That’s the one I got from amazon, no problems at all so far. And I use a scuf aswell

You talking about this?

That is the only official Sony adapter I can find, it is no were near the same size as most adapters, most are much better than the usb connector.

From what I have seen, it is also said to be at end of life, so hard to find new were I live and the cheapest new is 65+ delivery.

So if I was to buy it new, it would be much much bigger(the thing is fucking huge) than an all purpose and much more expensive.

If this isn't the one you are talking about can you link me to the official one you are talking about because as far as I can see, this is the only official one.

Hello again. I just tried to get something working and had no luck, over Bluetooth or USB OTG, with ePSXe (PlayStation 1) or PPSSPP (PSP). I think it might be a combination of changes in new versions of Android and alterations made by OnePlus in OxygenOS. Sixaxis Controller may work on the 3T, but it does require root access and hasn't been confirmed to work beyond Android Marshmallow to my knowledge.

As for PC, I can get it working nicely over USB and Bluetooth on Linux (using ds4drv). On Windows, however, Bluetooth disconnects after a few seconds. Ubisoft's Steep has DS4 support, but DS4Windows can be used for games that only have Xbox controller support. I'm thinking about getting the official Sony USB Bluetooth adaptor. It can be bought for £20 in some places, which still isn't cheap, but it should be guaranteed to work on Windows and macOS.

The best fix that I've found for this issue on PC is a DS4 and the official DS4 dongle.

It's quite an expensive solution however as they no longer make them and they can be £50+ on eBay.

Does anyone know if the cheap controllers you can get on Amazon that work on PC and PS4 fix this issue on PC?

  1. Did you check the box for PlayStation controller support in big picture mode? I ask this since you’re implying you connected the PS3 controller in some other fashion.

  2. Steam Input lets you customize your configuration, but ultimately will either output as a m/kb, or a Xbox controller, or both. Some games (ex. Okami) fully support SIAPI and will recognize your controller as such. You can check out r/steamcontroller for more information.

  3. On that note, some games support DS4 natively to various degrees (Rocket League is one). I use a wired connection but what I do is enable PS controller support across the board, and then individually set the controller option to “Forced off”. It’s up to the developers to set up DS4 controls, and most just rely on Xinput (Xbox controller style).

  4. Windows will always see the DS4 as a generic controller (dinput). At this point you need Steam or an API wrapper [like DS4Windows] if you want to use it on modern games.

  5. Those drivers you mention could’ve interfered with the PS4 controller. If you’re done with the dualshock 3, then remove the drivers entirely. If not, still remove those drivers replace them with the drivers that come with PS Now. Steam Input also supports the PS3 controller.

  6. Bluetooth connections are sometimes finicky. It really just depends on the model and brand of the adapter. There are other ways to connect it wirelessly: Sony made this stick if you really want PS Buttons, but are overpriced nowadays due to lack of demand. If you can deal with Xbox buttons, there are other brands like Brook and Mayflash.

Well if you don't have a dongle and the cable not connected, how would the controller transmit the data to your pc then? ;)

This is what you'll need to play wirelessly with your Dualshock 4 on PC:

The easiest way is buy the official Sony PS4 to PC adapter, but right now it's silly expensive. Here.

As for getting it to work how it worked previously, I can't recommend much because I don't know what you changed since it worked last. I would suggest getting rid of programs you installed recently that allow manipulation of the ps4 controller and start from scratch. Steam should be smart enough to pick it up and configure it rumble included if the controller is wired under normal circumstances.

I fucked around with DS4 for a while until I found out there’s a sony wireless adapter for pc. It’s a bit expensive but it works like a charm.
