[Workaround] GIMX on PS5 games.
Posted: Sun Aug 22, 2021 4:18 pm
So far the team is working to make the GIMX adapter work on PS5, while it is not possible there is an (ugly) way to use it and it is through Remote Play.
I use Linux which is my daily operating system but it should work on Windows.
I didn't test with steering wheels, with mouse/keyboard/joystick is working good with no notable delay running on WiFi 5ghz but may be better with Playstation and PC on ethernet.
Steps:
1) Update firmware to EMUJOYSTICK.hex
2) Start GIMX adapter with both ends plugged to PC. (Alt_Left + Alt_Right to ungrab mouse)
3) Start streaming with Chiaki (open-source remote play)

The touchpad doesn´t work, a workaround is to assign a key to the touchpad in Chiaki, then when needed it, press Alt Gr + Alt-left to release the keyboard and mouse and press the chosen key, and Alt Gr + Alt-left to grab the mouse again.
Don't play via streaming you will notice a large delay, the streaming is used only to input gamepad.

The easy way is to use an Android app to remote play, there's Chiaki, PS remote play and PSPAD apps.
