Remapping PS4 Share Button

[slayerage]

I play Destiny and I'm trying to use an xbox one controller to do so. However, I need to use the touchpad "button" for gamplay reasons, and I can't seem to remap the Xbox_View button to PS_TOUCH.

I found code on the forum as follows

unmap PS4_SHARE;
remap PS4_SHARE -> PS4_TOUCH;

main {

}

but I apparently cannot figure out how to use that. I have absolutely no experience with coding, GPC, etc., so I apparently need an explanation like I am five years old. What I have tried so far was to open the gpc compiler, create a new file, copy the above code as oriented (with the mapping above the main function), save, compile, program device, and then build and run (which, on the gtuner software, shows my xbox_view input as a ps_touch output), but the changes do not work on my console when I plug the controller back into the console.

What am I doing wrong, how can I fix this?

First, take a look at the topic below. The PS4_Share should map to the same as XB1_View. Unfortunately, the PS4_Touch does not map to any other XBox buttons; however, you should be able to use them for combos.

Code: Select all


remap XB1_VIEW -> PS4_TOUCH;
unmap PS4_SHARE;

main {

    //
    // The main procedure is called before every report be sent to
    // console, you can think in this procedure as a loop which only
    // ends when the script is unloaded.
    //
    // TODO: handle/change values of buttons, analog stick and/or sensors
    //

}



Here you go!

Ok, tried to put this in the GPC compiler exactly as you stated, but the xbox one controller view button input is still giving me the share button output when on the console. It does show that it's "translating" correctly when I do build and run, but on the actual console I'm not getting the right output as if nothing has changed at all.

I'm pretty confident, but not 100% sure, I'm using the compiler correctly. Any further suggestions..?

...And just to reiterate, I am a total novice and could use a very easy to understand explanation.

Do you have the output to PS4? It works on my end.

[slayerage]

Yeah I do have it set to output to ps4. Everything works fine now, aside from the every 8 minute or so authentication momentary disconnect and the share button being unwilling to remap so I can actually use the "touchpad button."

I just want the touchpad button functionality on the xbox view button.

1) Open new GPC script.
2) Delete everything off of that page.
3) Select all on this script I made you and COPY.
4) Paste script on that new clean page.
5) Click compile to make sure there is no errors
6) click build and run
7) make sure output is on PS4.
8) TEST

I don't know what exactly that changed, but it definitely works now. Thank you very much for the help!
