Yo Ryochan7, first of all i just wanna say thank you for your amazing work.
you've done a fantastic job with ds4 windows and truly i appreciate it.

i just had a quick question and i wasn't sure how else to get a hold of you.
is there anyway to emulate my mouse & keyboard as controller ?
for example, my goal is to play FPS games on M&K but it appears as a controller/ the input registers as a controller rather than M&K.
if not possible, any plans in the future to add a feature like this?

Thanks,

~xelm

I will save him the effort. No, there is not. There isn't much point in doing so other than trying to fool others or cheat in a game. What possible reason could you have for wanting to disguise your mouse and keyboard as a controller other than those?

Strictly for warzone 2.
aim assist. it's completely broken and only available using controller... regardless to what anyone says it makes mouse and keyboard players have a huge disadvantage.
i know a lot of people would disagree but as a long time counter strike player, it is the honest truth.
the game is built for controller sadly and playing mouse/key feels so clunky regardless of your DPI/In-game sense.
i have spent weeks trying to find a stable smooth overall experience. something along the lines of CSGO mouse movement feel.

REWASD has this feature but i figured I'd shoot my shot and see if its possible on ds4 windows.

So....cheating, like i said. Trying to say that the lack of aim assist on kb+m is unfair is so unfounded in reality that it mine as well be a fever dream. Aim Assist was literally designed to make controllers be more on par with kb+m when it comes to aiming. You do not need it on kb+m, you just need to practice more and get better at clicking on heads

There is no support for reading KB+M events and mapping them to a virtual controller. Not much of a point for doing that on PC. The couple times I have ever tried a setup like that (some Metroid Prime related project IIRC), it has been wonky and I did not like it. Mapping a controller to KB+M is a far bigger concern for me as, even with wrist support, I cannot game using a mouse for more than about an hour without my wrist acting up; it has been like that for years. Also, I like to play many retro PC games that typically either do not offer controller support or have bad controller support.

Isnt controller companion able to do that?

It even has some user made profiles for older games without controller support.

There is a huge point. Some games do not accept kb+m input if you're playing co-op, Minecraft Dungeons being a massive title that does this. If someone only has one controller, or a friend who you're playing with on Steam Remote Play Together has no controller, you would be able to play together if there was a way to emulate a controller with your kbm.
