Use your Dual Shock 4 as an xBox 360 Controller
DS4 to XInput Wrapper is a tool you can use to convert signals from your DS4 to ones that are compliant with an XBOX 360 controller. You can use your Dual Shock 4 as an Xbox 360 Controller.
Use The DS4 Features
Download the program and you will receive a series of instructions for setting up your pad. The software will replicate the 360 pad and will allow you to use the controller’s extra features, such as the touch panel that is similar to a laptop’s touch pad.
No More Updates
The developers have abandoned the software at the moment, which means there will be no further updates. This is not particularly bad news for current users, but it means that as operating systems improve and change, there is a chance the software will stop working.
Easy And Difficult At The Same Time
Setting it up is fairly easy and it allows you access to all of the Dual Shock 4’s features. The software interface is not suitable for people with limited computer skills, and it is no longer updated, so if it doesn’t work for you, then it probably never will.
The Technical Stuff
It works without you needing to mess with your original drivers for DS4. It uses HID Protocol to XInput mapping and you still need to install drivers for SCP virtual bus device and you may need X360 Controller drivers. These are the reasons why it is fairly easy to set up if you have intermediate computer skills, but it may baffle people without this level of experience.
Pros
- It tricks your computer into thinking it is an XBOX 360 controller
- As of 2015 it still works
- Setting it up is easy
- Gain access to all the DS 4 features
Cons
- It will no longer be updated
- The interface is not exactly user friendly
