Hello!
I was wondering if anyone has had success in getting their PS4 controller working for FFXIV? I have it working in with my PC fine and the buttons and everything works but when I try to use it in game the configuration is all weird. Circle is X, X is Triangle, R3 is start and so on. I tried using 3rd party applications to reconfigure but FFXIV ignores them. I also looked in the install directories and couldn't find anything with the binding.
Thanks in advance!
I'm going to take a stab and guess that you actually mean PS3 controller?
Also, I use a program called "DS3 Tool" which works excellent. I always have my PS3 controller plugged in via USB, though, so I can't help you with wireless bluetooth nonsense.
No, PS4. They are on sale now for some reason. I think I found the answer though. In \Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn\FFXIV.cfg there is a section <GamePad Settings>. Moving those numbers around seem to have what I need. Though I have to keep relaunching the game to try things out. Another hour and I may have it.
Sweet!! If you could, when you get it all figured out. Post your "how to" here i think i would pick up a PS4 controller if you get it to work!!! And if you could, let me know if the touch pad works with the game or not too ^^
Cant wait to see what happens !!
Ok, at the very bottom of the config file is the custom configuration for your Gamepad there is a line whose default is this:
Alias {90,91,88,89,41,40,32,33,73,72,48,49,1,3,2,0,4,6,8,5,7,9,11,10}
Which corresponds to this Action Key
{90,91,88,89,41,40,32,33,73,72,48,49,J,C,A,M,R,L,T,X,R,Z,St,Se}
A = Accept
C = Cancel
J = Jump
T = Target Lock
M = Map
R = Run Lock
X = Cross Panel change
L = Left Panel Select
R = Right Panel Select
Se = Select
St = Start
To behave a bit normally, I made mine this:
{90,91,88,89,41,40,32,33,73,72,48,49,3,2,1,0,4,6,10,5,7,11,9,8}
The first few numbers are your axes for the hats and dpad. Those worked fortunately so I didn't bother mapping. Here is a key for how the buttons match up.
0 = Square
1 = X
2 = Circle
3 = Triangle
4 = L1
5 = R1
6 = L2
7 = R2
8 = Share
9 = Options
10 = L3
11 = R3
12 = Touch Pad
It looks like the touchpad will need special drivers to behave as anything other than another button.
Happy gaming!
