Well now, if you’re lookin’ for ways to use that fancy PS4 controller on your PC, let me tell ya, there’s more than just that DS4Windows thing. Folks have been findin’ other tools that can help ya out, and some of ‘em are quite handy.
First off, there’s Steam Big Picture Mode. This one’s built right into Steam, so if you’ve got that, you’re already halfway there. You just plug in your controller, and it’ll recognize it quicker than you can say “potato.” It’s got a simple setup, and you can customize your buttons real easy. But, if you don’t use Steam much, it might feel like a bit of a hassle to navigate.
Then there’s this one called SCP Toolkit. Now, this one’s a bit more technical, but don’t let that scare ya off. It lets you use not just PS4 controllers but also those old PS3 ones. You’ll have to fiddle with some settings, but it does the job well once you get it goin’. Just be prepared, it might take a little time to set up, especially if you’re not so good with the tech stuff.
Another option is Xpadder. This one’s pretty popular too. It lets you map your controller buttons to keyboard keys. So, if you got a game that don’t support controllers, Xpadder can make it work. It’s like magic! But, it’s not free. You gotta shell out a few bucks for it, but some folks think it’s worth it if they play a lot of games.
And we can’t forget about reWASD. This one’s a real powerhouse when it comes to customization. You can tweak just about everything on your controller. It’s great if you wanna make your gaming experience just right for you. But, again, it ain’t free, and some might find it a bit too much for what they need.
JoyToKey is another tool out there. This one lets you control keyboard and mouse actions with your controller. It’s especially handy if you play games that aren’t meant for controllers at all. But you might have to mess around with the settings a bit to get it just right.
Now, I’ve heard people say good things about Pinnacle Game Profiler too. It’s got a user-friendly interface, and it can handle a lot of different controllers. It’s a bit on the pricier side, but if you’re serious about gaming, it might be worth considering.
Some folks still prefer Input Mapper. It’s similar to DS4Windows, but not everyone’s a fan. Some say it’s a bit clunky and has ads unless you pay. But hey, if it works for ya, who am I to judge?
So, in the end, there’s plenty of options out there if ya don’t want to stick with DS4Windows. Each has its own quirks and features, so it might take a bit of tryin’ to find the one that fits you best. Just remember, no matter which one you choose, you’ll be ready to game in no time!
Happy gaming, folks!
