Quick warning, you will still see the xbox prompts though.Īlong comes steam, they want to make a new controller, and jump into the game.

If you want to go back to these dark times the best option for your DS4 controller is DS4Windows. These programs were tough to use, prone to breaking, and just not worth the trouble for most people, so 90% of PC gamers just used xbox controllers, which were often supported flawlessly. Prior to steam adding support you had to use janky fan made programs to operate as middle men, taking the mystery inputs from the controller, and then passing them along as pretend xinput (xbox) controller inputs. I don't know the why here, maybe microsoft made it really tough on them for all I know. Sony and Nintendo never released drivers, and never did anything to even remotely make them useable. See, the crux of the problem is that the only company who does anything to support their controllers being used on PC is microsoft.


Let me tell you a little tale of why you want/need the buttons relabeled.
