Windows 7 Home
DS4 tool 1.1 Beta 2 Update 1, DS4Tool 1.2
Hide DS4 box unchecked
I've only ever been able to get Version 1.1 Beta 2 update 1 to work with Dark souls. Any version afterword can be downloaded, and will work with other games, but will not respond for Dark souls. I Downloaded version 1.2, ran it, but it did not work. Having the “hide DS4 Controller” box did not seem to affect much. The camera would spin endlessly, and all of the buttons and stick had been rearranged (x is now back, O is now A, etc.) The real problem is that now when I run the older version (beta 2 update 1) the controller is no longer recognized. I have tried reinstalling the drivers and updating the Xbox controller driver, but nothing worked.
Is Dark souls super picky or am I missing something?
Thanks
When I initially installed this program (1.2) I did not encounter this issue, my Dark souls was receiving no dual input at all, even the controller was still being recognised, despite selecting the 'hide DS4 controller'. It wasn't until I installed the driver for my Dualshock 3 did I start possessing the issues you have brought to life.
I have managed to fix it however, or at the very least, it is how I managed to overcome my adversity.
Disclaimer: This is how I managed to fix it on my computer, your computer may be different, as a result I'm refusing to take any responsibility for what you do with your computer.
First thing, you need to connect your Dualshock 3 to your PC (preferably with a wire) it has to be connected because you are only presented with the option to uninstall it when it is connected.
Secondly (this only covers Win 7), click on the start button > Control panel > Hardware and sound > Device manager
Click on 'Human interface devices'. Now uninstall all 'USB input devices'. Don't worry, we're going to be re-installing the program and the DS4, but first we need to get rid of the DS3 driver.
Once uninstalled disconnect the DS3 from your computer, you won't be needing it again.
Now run the SCPdriver again, and uninstall it. Then proceed to install it again. With the driver installed run the SCP server and connect your controller.
Wait for the drivers to install, the program should have recognised your DS4 controller, but if it hasn't, click on 'stop' and 'start' it again.
It should work, but to see if it has worked, tick 'Hide DS4 controller' and see if the controller is still recognised on the program.
However it seems to me, that the developer's intention was for the 'hide DS4' option was so that the program was meant to not recognise the controller at all. So I assume it is working as intended.
But, I implore the developer to add an option which hides the DS4 and makes the PC recognise it only as a X360 controller.
Because at the moment, my PC recognises it as a wired controller and a 360 controller, this is what causes the dual-input problem in Dark souls.
But when I decided to hide my controller (before I made my fix) Dark souls would only recognise it as a controller without xinput.
Overall this is a fantastic piece of software, it merely requires the odd-improvement so that I can put away my 360 pad for good.
Edit: After completing DS and quitting the SCP app, when I decided to return, the controller was no longer recognised in hidden form, meaning I'm back to trying to fix it.
Seems like it was merely a temporary fix.
Edit 2: Got it working again, and this time I've presented an image:

Notice how the controller is recognised despite being hidden? I think in it's current form it is a good mistake (if my assumptions about the developers intentions are right) but it needs to be an actual option. Because typically hiding the controller will result in the DS4 not being recognised.
Here's how I got it working again:
With the dualshock 4 connected and the program running, I uninstalled everything, this time, after uninstalling one specific USB port the computer told me, I would have to restart the computer. After my restart, I went to SCPdriver and uninstalled it, only to reinstall it again.
Then I connected the DS4 and waited for it to install its drivers.
And it worked, as the image shows. As I have said previously, you'll know if it hasn't worked because you will not see 'controller 1' when the hide box is ticked.
