Hi GIMX team,
is it possible to make the HORI mini wired pad to support PS4 emulation when we start the GIMX ?
I think it is the solution to support the PS5 without disconnect in 8 Minutes.
Thank you very much.

This is one of the firmware for the China Direct Drive wheel
https://github.com/ihack-23333/imms_ps_xbox_support
This Direct drive wheel base also able to connect to PS5 with the Hori Mini Pad controller
GIMX team, can we implement this to next release ? I think many Wheel users are waiting for this happen as GIMX is the only solution for Direct Drive wheel other than Fanatec / TM / Logitech
Thanks

This is pure binary file. What we need is source code to implement something like that.

Hi GoDlike,
anything I can capture for the Hori Mini pad to add support to GIMX ? currently GIMX is only support the Sony DS4 for reading the authentication, if you can add support to Hori Mini pad for readying the authentication and it should work.

We are already using similar solution with ps5 in testing branch but Sony disabled support for third party controllers like that in newer games, so this is pointless to implement that. Thanks for willingness to help, but we're out of luck with this one.

Hi GoDlike,
The situation right now is , it is working on all the games that supports G29 in PS5.
also tested the PS5 games like Dirt5 which is able to work.
GT Sport , Assetto Corsa, F1 2021 ( PS5 ver) , Dirt 5 ( PS5 ver )
Most likely GT5 will also support, is that a chance to add it ?
we don't want to hook up another Drivehub to PS5 just for reading the security chip with Hori.

We already have this partially working with testing branch. It's a matter of time when we will release it.

I've tried changing the following in 2 places that I found.
// ds4
#define DS4_VENDOR 0x054c
#define DS4_PRODUCT 0x05c4
to
// Hori mini gamepad
#define DS4_VENDOR 0x0F0D
#define DS4_PRODUCT 0x00EE
This allows the hori mini gamepad to be used. It seems to work fine with the ps4. With the ps5, it has the 8 min timeout. I am not sure what else is needed for the hori mini gamepad to make the ps5 not time out after 8 minutes.
This is using EMUG29PS4.hex flashed. The game I tested with F1 2020 trial version.
@GoDlike, the testing branch for gimx, is it available on github?

No. It's not publicly available yet. Too many bugs.

seems the Drivehub + Gimx is the solution right now then...
