5.c Controller | Configurate the Dualshock 4 controller
The controller patcher engine has built in support for the offical Dualshock 4 controller for the Playstation 4. They need to connect it via USB. Caution, the new model of the Dualshock 4 Controller is not supported via USB. Use the Network Client.
When you provide no config file, the following button mapping will be used:
Gamepad A = DS4 circle button
Gamepad B = DS4 cross button
Gamepad X = DS4 triangle button
Gamepad Y = DS4 square button
Gamepad DPAD = DS4 Dpad
Gamepad left stick = DS4 left stick
Gamepad right stick = DS4 right stick
Gamepad Plus = DS4 Share button
Gamepad Minus = DS4 Options button
Gamepad L = DS4 L1
Gamepad R = DS4 R1
Gamepad ZL = DS4 L2 button
Gamepad ZR = DS4 R2 button
Gamepad Left stick press = DS4 L3 (left stick press)
Gamepad right stick press = DS4 R3 (right stick press)
The vid of the dualshock 4 is "0x054c", the pid "0x05c4". The identify is this:
[vid=0x054c,pid=0x05c4]
You can either complety overwrite the default configuration or just modifying parts of it. When you put the following as the **second **line in the config, the default values will be ignored.
[IgnoreDefault]
Like metioned earlier in this wiki, the built in controller have an "easy" way to map the buttons and sticks. The following buttons and trigger can be mapped:
Buttons:
A = VPAD_BUTTON_A
B = VPAD_BUTTON_B
X = VPAD_BUTTON_X
Y = VPAD_BUTTON_Y
Plus = VPAD_BUTTON_PLUS
Minus = VPAD_BUTTON_MINUS
Home = VPAD_BUTTON_HOME
Sync = VPAD_BUTTON_SYNC
TV = VPAD_BUTTON_TV
DPAD:
DPAD left = VPAD_BUTTON_LEFT
DPAD left = VPAD_BUTTON_RIGHT
DPAD left = VPAD_BUTTON_UP
DPAD left = VPAD_BUTTON_DOWN
Trigger:
ZR = VPAD_BUTTON_ZR
ZL = VPAD_BUTTON_ZL
L = VPAD_BUTTON_L
R = VPAD_BUTTON_R
Sticks:
Stick press left = VPAD_BUTTON_STICK_L
Stick press right = VPAD_BUTTON_STICK_R
These can be mapped to the following DS4 Buttons:
//Buttons
DS4 Cross = DS4_BUTTON_CROSS
DS4 Circle = DS4_BUTTON_CIRCLE
DS4 Square = DS4_BUTTON_SQUARE
DS4 Triangle = DS4_BUTTON_TRIANGLE
DS4 Start = DS4_BUTTON_START
DS4 Select = DS4_BUTTON_SELECT
DS4 Guide button = DS4_BUTTON_GUIDE
DS4 Touchpad click = DS4_BUTTON_T_PAD_CLICK
//DPAD
DS4 DPAD N = DS4_BUTTON_DPAD_N
DS4 DPAD NE = DS4_BUTTON_DPAD_NE
DS4 DPAD E = DS4_BUTTON_DPAD_E
DS4 DPAD SE = DS4_BUTTON_DPAD_SE
DS4 DPAD S = DS4_BUTTON_DPAD_S
DS4 DPAD SW = DS4_BUTTON_DPAD_SW
DS4 DPAD W = DS4_BUTTON_DPAD_W
DS4 DPAD NW = DS4_BUTTON_DPAD_NW
//Trigger
DS4 L1 = DS4_BUTTON_L1
DS4 L2 = DS4_BUTTON_L2
DS4 L3 = DS4_BUTTON_L3
DS4 R1 = DS4_BUTTON_R1
DS4 R2 = DS4_BUTTON_R2
DS4 R3 = DS4_BUTTON_R3
In order to able to use the DPAD in config, the dpad mode needs to be set. The a predefined value that can be used.
DPAD_MODE = DS4_DPAD_MODE
The gamepad has two sticks with axis that can be mapped to the dualshock controller:
Gamepad left stick, X Axis = VPAD_BUTTON_L_STICK_X
Gamepad left stick, Y Axis = VPAD_BUTTON_L_STICK_Y
Gamepad right stick, X Axis = VPAD_BUTTON_R_STICK_X
Gamepad right stick, Y Axis = VPAD_BUTTON_R_STICK_Y
The dualshock controller has predefines values that can be used.
Dualshock 4 left stick, X Axis = DS4_STICK_L_X
Dualshock 4 left stick, Y Axis = DS4_STICK_L_Y
Dualshock 4 right stick, X Axis = DS4_STICK_R_X
Dualshock 4 right stick, Y Axis = DS4_STICK_R_Y
Each axis of each stick has his own neutral/min/max value,deadzone and can be inverted. These are the default values for the DS4 controller sticks:
Dualshock 4 left stick, X Axis = Neutral: 0x80, Min: 0x00, Max: 0xFF, Deadzone: 0x06, inverted: no
Dualshock 4 left stick, Y Axis = Neutral: 0x80, Min: 0x00, Max: 0xFF, Deadzone: 0x05, inverted: yes
Dualshock 4 right stick, X Axis = Neutral: 0x80, Min: 0x00, Max: 0xFF, Deadzone: 0x07, inverted: no
Dualshock 4 right stick, Y Axis = Neutral: 0x80, Min: 0x00, Max: 0xFF, Deadzone: 0x09, inverted: yes
Each value (exept the neutral postision) can be adjusting through the config file. NOTE: When you use the VPAD_BUTTON_L_STICK_X, VPAD_BUTTON_L_STICK_Y, VPAD_BUTTON_R_STICK_X, VPAD_BUTTON_R_STICK_Y to change/set the sticks, use the following options only AFTER them.
To change the value for the min/max value use a line simliar like this:
VPAD_L_STICK_X_MINMAX = 0x01,0xFE
In this example you would change the values of left stick X axis. The min value is set to 0x01, the max value to 0xFE. This works similar for other gamepad sticks/axis
To change the value for the deadzone use a line simliar like this:
VPAD_L_STICK_X_DEADZONE = 0x07
In this example you would change the deadzone of left stick X axis. The deadzone is set to 0x09.
To change the value for the deadzone use a line simliar like this:
VPAD_L_STICK_X_INVERT = true
In this example you would invert the left stick X axis. When you don't want to invert it, you can set the value to "no" or "false".
Keeping the default settings, just adjust the deadzones of left stick.
[vid=0x054c,pid=0x05c4]
VPAD_L_STICK_X_DEADZONE = 0x10
VPAD_L_STICK_Y_DEADZONE = 0x11
Keeping the default settings, just don't invert the Y axis of right stick.
[vid=0x054c,pid=0x05c4]
VPAD_R_STICK_Y_INVERT = no
Overwriting the default setting. Loading the default setting completly from the config
[vid=0x054c,pid=0x05c4]
[IgnoreDefault] //Ignoring the built in default values
//Settings buttons
VPAD_BUTTON_A = DS4_BUTTON_CIRCLE
VPAD_BUTTON_B = DS4_BUTTON_CROSS
VPAD_BUTTON_X = DS4_BUTTON_TRIANGLE
VPAD_BUTTON_Y = DS4_BUTTON_SQUARE
VPAD_BUTTON_MINUS = DS4_BUTTON_SELECT
VPAD_BUTTON_PLUS = DS4_BUTTON_START
VPAD_BUTTON_STICK_L = DS4_BUTTON_L3
VPAD_BUTTON_STICK_R = DS4_BUTTON_R3
//Setting dpad
DPAD_MODE = DS4_DPAD_MODE
VPAD_BUTTON_LEFT = DS4_BUTTON_LEFT
VPAD_BUTTON_RIGHT = DS4_BUTTON_RIGHT
VPAD_BUTTON_UP = DS4_BUTTON_UP
VPAD_BUTTON_DOWN = DS4_BUTTON_DOWN
//Setting the sticks
VPAD_L_STICK_X = DS4_STICK_L_X
VPAD_L_STICK_Y = DS4_STICK_L_Y
VPAD_R_STICK_X = DS4_STICK_R_X
VPAD_R_STICK_Y = DS4_STICK_R_Y
//Setting the trigger
VPAD_BUTTON_L = DS4_BUTTON_L1
VPAD_BUTTON_ZL = DS4_BUTTON_L2
VPAD_BUTTON_R = DS4_BUTTON_R1
VPAD_BUTTON_ZR = DS4_BUTTON_R2
//This device is no adapter that can't have more than 1 pads.
