    @JarskyPlaysI found the fix! I did the opposite they told me to do. I re-enabled my overlays, both on origin and steam. I also changed Steam properties from the C: folder and ran compatibility troubleshooter selecting high DPI settings. I don't know if that's the exact reason, but I believe it's just enabling overlays again.

    So my settings are:
    Steam input to Global PS/Xbox.
    Enable Origin-in-game overlay and Steam.
    No DS4.

    Edit Nov2022:

    Deleted the unnecessary info about DPI.

    I got a new PC, RTX 3090, i9 12900KS. Still got the same problem i wrote about.

    Fixed it again by enabling overlays.

    I succeeded DS4 too, by disabling Steam Input (on steam BF2042 properties), and used Xbox 360 controller emulator on DS4 controller settings.

    Edit Dec2024:

    Some people solved the problem with EA Play BF2042, using step 4 or 5 in this video.

@Sammiuna All I had to do was check the settings in steam big picture mode. I run origin through steam with both overlays - seems to work again now for my dualshock 4...
