I've made my wireless DS4 work as setting it as a Gamepad for Smash. This is using the latest nightlies in both programs. However, the Gamepad and DS4 aren't used as separate controllers unfortunately.

Hi. When I use DS4 via USB, it works perfectly, the way i've set it up in my configuration file. But when i try to use the same control over the Networking Client, the buttons are all unconfigured. I have tried several configuration files without success. I plug the cable and the buttons are perfect. What can it be? Thank you.

Edit:
I cleaned all the configuration files and put it as simple as possible. I reloaded the HID to VPAD and it worked perfect. Thank you very much.

I downloaded everything but for some reason HIDToVPADNetworkClient-0.4 doesn't recognize my xbox 360 controller, what are the exact steps to make it recognized: (I already have both Microsoft CC and Java updated)

There is an option in the network client settings to show all devices, it still may not work like in my case but I guess it's worth trying...

Hi, I am not able to create a configuration for a Shadow DreamGear controller, can you help me please?
I changed the vid and pid of the proexps3 file by the one that hid test showed and worked out, I know it was risky but this controller is basically the same dualshock 3

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

I can not believe it worked out, I rescued a controller, the need is the mother of the invention, although I've only done a little thing.

Hey @Maschell thanks for a great tool!

I did some QA on my mbp running OSX 10.12 using a DS3 and a few DS4's and figured I'd send/post my results.

I found the DS4 works perfectly out of the box with the config that's included in the release package for the program.

That said, I found connecting 2 or more DS4's at once would make the network client act strangely. In some cases it would show only 1 controller in the client and after closing/reopening a few time there were times where no controllers were recognized at all.

I then tried renaming the DS4's (i.e. "Black DS4 Conroller" and "Silver DS4 Controller") since I have 5 different color DS4's and this would ensure I could easily identify them in the BT settings however doing this made them not show up in the network client. To remedy this I simply unpaired and repaired the controller and it was recognized once again.

After my DS4 fun I tried using one of my DS3's and was unable to have the network client recognize the controller no matter what I did so I simply stuck to the DS4 instead.

Man, this tool and network client are amazing and I can't thank you enough for your hard work on it! I can do some further OSX testing if you'd need/like a QA so if you're interested just let me know otherwise I'll simply report back any bugs I may find while messing around with it.

Thanks again!

Edit: Added Specs/Device List Below.

Machine: 2013 Non-Retina MacBook Pro
OS: OSX 10.12
Bluetooth Device: MBP built in BT adapter
Controllers: DS3 (with rumble) & v1 DS4's

Hi GroverCleveland

Im trying to connect using a macbook too, but the Java client cant find the Wii u on the Network. Im using a ds4 v2.

Do you have any advice?

Regards
