Basic Dual Sense Edge Support on PC

Question

Product: Battlefield 2042Platform:PCPlease specify your platform model. PCAMD or Nvidia Model Number 2070 SuperEnter RAM memory size in GB 32 GBAre you using any software with an overlay? NoWhich part of the game is the issue happening in? Game MenuIn which game menu were you when the bug occurred? All menu's in gamePlease select your region North AmericaOn which server did this happen?When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm)Summarize your bug PC version of 2042 does not recognize my dual sense edge controller. I can usually use my regular dual-sense controller on PC natively without a 3rd party application.How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Plug a dual sense edge controller into your PC and boot up 2042. Then try to play the game. The inputs are all messed up and half the buttons do not work or the game just doesn't register/recognize the controller. I don't expect back buttons support but I'd like the base functionality of the controller to work as it does with the dual senseWhat happens when the bug occurs? The controller does not work (no input from half or all the buttons) and the game reads the dual sense edge controller as an Xbox controller or it doesn't recognize the controller at allWhat should be happening instead? Normal controller use from all base buttons(triggers and face buttons)‌The dual sense controller works natively on PC for 2042. Simple plug-and-play without a 3rd party app. I recently bought the dual sense edge, unfortunately, the game doesn't seem to recognize the controller as it does with my regular dual sense. I'm not asking for full functionality of the dual sense edge controller to be pushed to the PC version such as back button support but it would be great to have the same plug-and-play functionality for the DS Edge with basic face button and trigger support as it does with the regular DS controller.

Still an issue and the Steam Input method does work but leaves too much to be desired to really be useful.

I figured it out on the steam side. You'll need to purchase DSX from steam to assist in controller functionality and Revo Uninstaller(Free, download off the internet) to remove all game files and registry objects in relation to the game BF2042.Use Revo Uninstaller to remove all traces of the game from your computer.Yes! this include removing the registry objects highlighted in bold letters. PLEASE BE CAREFUL!!!! Only remove what REVO has highlighted in bold when it comes to Registry Objects.Removal all of the other lingering files on the 3rd and final uninstall page pageReinstall the game from SteamEnsure to disable steam input specifically for Battlefield 2042 &gt; Right click on the game in your steam collection/library &gt;&nbsp; Properties &gt; Controller &gt; Select Disable Steam Input from the dropdown menuPurchase and download DSX from steamStart DSX and select the virtual device of choice (DualSense emulation, DualShock emulation. Xbox360 emulation, etc...)DSX is cool because you can use the app to leverage the back button functionality of the controller.Start BF2042 and it should read/recognize your controller based on the emulation setting selected as well as the output the proper button icons in game
