Major issue with Logitech Dual Shock and PS4 controllers.

I've installed Madden 19 for PC and the game detects both my Logitech Dual Shock and PS4 controllers but the buttons are mapped incorrectly and show Xbox icons.

When I say mapped incorrectly I mean literally the only thing on my controller that works correctly is the left stick. All of the buttons don't even remotely line up with their proper functions so even if I could mentally translate the buttons to the xbox icons the game isn't functional.

Needless to say, I'm unable to play at all.

Please tell me that the developers had the foresight to support controllers generically or I'll need to get a full refund of Origin Access.

  • Look up xInput, it will clone your controllers to work like Xbox controllers.

    This should solve all your issues, you'll just have to get used to the xbox layouts on the screen.

    So I found this out to when i couldnt get my controller to work in Battlefield. In order to get a ps4 controller to work on Origin, add your Origin application to Steam, then open up 'Big Picture Mode' and start origin through that, and then the controller will be recognized as a Xbox Controller.

    If anyone's looking for a good option to use DS4 controllers on your PC without having to run Steam big picture or getting Sony's bluetooth dongle, I have been using DS4Windows for years and it's worked very well for me. You can customize all the buttons, use the touch pad as a mouse and it's very responsive. Occasionally it can hiccup a bit and if you want to play with more than 2 controllers you will need to have exclusive mode enabled which will require you turning off one of nvidia's services in the background because they conflict (NVIDIA Loacalsystem Container I believe it is), but if you're using 2 controllers or less you should never need to worry about it.

    Xinput doesn't work, I've tried out 2 different controllers now and the game finds them but the mapping is really messed up... Right trigger=A, Left Trigger=B, Up and Down is reversed and so on.

    Please fix this.

  • Okay here is how to make the Dualshock 4 to work on ALL Origin Games

    Step 1. add Origin to Steam

    2.) Open Steam through big picture mode

    3.) Launch Origin through big picture mode, while the controller is ON

    Thats it, after you do those easy steps the controller will be recognized as a Xbox one controller on Every Origin game that has X-Input.

    Hope this helped!

    Its a weird fix, but it works with DS4 and a switch pro controller. I reccomend trying to make a aiming profile using gyro... it actually works well
