I just picked up a BT400 dongle to try to make this more reliable and now things aren't working at all.
I don't want to use the driver the other dude is writing, not to be mean but even his alpha 1.5 version just is designed badly, bloated looking, has login / account stuff - it's just terrible. I like this particular DS4 driver because it's simple and clean.
Anyhow - I do not understand bluetooth, I'm dumb ok?
god help me can someone explain?
Like....... I get the impression somehow that there's multiple layers of drivers for bluetooth. There's the driver for the adapter, then there's a driver for the controller but there's also like bluetooth drivers for the protocol or something? I dunno.
Long story short, using the BT400 on my PC with the DS4, I am no longer prompted to use the 3 different methods of pairing the device, it keeps dropping out within about 15 seconds and there's no game controller appearing in the game controllers section, it's like the BT400 doesn't know it's a game controller, despite it saying it.
Any ideas? Man BT is a bummer.
EDIT / NOTE: I'd heard the BT400 is the best dongle to get so I grabbed another one, plz don't tell me it was a waste of time :/
Here's the thing I'm talking about, I no longer have this.

Won't prompt for a connection method (pin etc)
