Needs fine tuning
I’ve simply purchased this for Minecraft specifically. I recently bought it on PC and I use FREEWARE of Input Mapper combined with my DS4 through USB and it works fantastic. I prefer Minecraft on PC / Mac because it’s further adavnced than console but I like the controller scheme of say Xbox Minecraft so I map my buttons to fit that as close as possible. With this App here I am able to connect my DS4 to my Macbook Pro without issues. I can map buttons on the controller to specific keys on the computer that correspond to the proper keys for Minecraft. The issue I’m having is the Mouse Keys. Once pushed, they don’t stop being pushed. I run through the world constantly punching or setting down blocks and yes I’ve remapped those keys in Minecraft hoping it would fix that but sadly it doesn’t. Another issue I have is the mouse wheel sensitivity can only be set to 1x speed at the bare minimum or slowest. I map L1 / R1 to Mouse Wheel Left and Right respectively and it moves way too fast to scroll through my items bar even at 1x speed. It needs decimal options so when you push the L1 / R1 key it moves across to the next item instead of scrolling through the entire bar way to fast. So basically Macro Options would be very useful. I could map one button to two keys like in Input Mapper and have workaround fixes for buttons that stay pushed. For instance, I mapped Sneak to the CAPS LOCK button and to L3 so it stays pushed as needed so it doesn’t become cumbersome trying to hold it down. Then I added a Macro for R3 to CAPS LOCK to press and release so it undoes the action. In conclusion, this app works great but it needs more options or some games like Minecraft can be pretty much unplayable.
