DualShock 4 Under DS4Windows Not Recognised

[Tinkle Popo]

Hi folks.

First post, first question!

I recently bought a DS4 for use on my PC. I'm using the latest release of DS4Windows to emulate an Xinput controller. The set up works perfectly for everything I play... Except Dolphin.

For some reason, in configuration menu Dolphin sees that there's an Xinput device but in-game there's no input response at all. It's as if there is no controller attached.

What could cause this issue? Any help is greatly appreciated. I just want to have a play of Luigi's Mansion without digging out all my old hardware!

I'm on Windows 7 Pro 64bit using Dolphin 4.0-5921 downloaded from this site.

Thanks for looking.

Have you tried enabling background input? Have you made sure to set the input for port 1 to a standard controller?

Thanks for replying. Yeah, I've tried enabling background input and I've double checked that port 1 is set to a standard controller...

I just don't get it at all. No one else seems to have this issue and the Dolphin is the only program that I have the issue with... Colour me confused...

What game are you playing? Did you set up a GC controller or wiimote?

I was trying Luigi's Mansion but it isn't recognised in any game. I chose Standard Controller. I did not set it up as a Wiimote.

I'm using a Dual Shock 4 with DS4Windows and it works for me. When you configure controllers, make sure you select the device on the device drop down. For me the Dual Shock 4 works as "XInput/0/Gamepad" when configuring the controller profiles.

EDIT: I see you say that selecting the device doesn't help. I think you are just missing something in setting up the controller because it should be working.

Im getting the same thing I am able to set the controller in the settings but the game itself is not picking it up at all i've tried Ds4windows,also the ximputwrappers and motioninjoy its all the same result made sure its configured and then ingame nothing

edit: just tried a stable version as-well same problem

Use InputMapper instead. SOOOO much better than the DS4Windows thing. That's what I'm using right now. You can even customize what color your LED is.
