g25 acting like DS4 controller

Post by yagey »

Hi there, I have a g25 plugged into a windows 10 PC. also a DS4 controller plugged into PC.
Gimx adapter to PS4.

I can control the menus on the PS4 with the wheel, but every game I launch says 'press X to continue' and nothing happens, even though I can see the command being sent in the logs.

I only have one PS4 controller, do I need two? (One to turn on PS4 and one for authentication for the wheel)

I'm close! thanks for the support :D

Don't forget to specify:

the GIMX software version - 5.6 64bit
the OS: Windows 7/8 32/64bits, Ubuntu 32/64bits, other Linux distro... - windows 10 64bit
the adapter
DIY USB adapter
USB to serial adapter - unknown, whatever the idiot guide told me to buy...
AVR USB board
Firmware (version + folder + file)
the console: PS3 (fat, slim, superslim...), 360, PS4, XOne - pS4
the game - need for speed
the controller: mouse/keyboard/joystick brand+model - logitech g25

Hi,
Make sure to turn off the DS4 controller before connecting it to the PC.

thank you!
If I may make a suggestion, perhaps adding a PS4 FAQ http://gimx.fr/wiki/index.php?title=FAQ, just to mention the DS4 auth process and perhaps the ordering of how to hook things up?

EDIT: looks like it is covered here, I just need to RTFM: http://gimx.fr/wiki/index.php?title=Quick_Start#PS4

look forward to trying this out!

The correct wiki page section is here: http://gimx.fr/wiki/index.php?title=Qui ... entication
(the one you linked is for the bluetooth connection method)
