@@mar990 I'm having a serious problem and need some advice. Followed this video and finally got the dpad to work, awesome. But now I can't activate the "No Random Encounters" feature. Any advice?
It doesn't work for me. On steam controller settings, it reads my controller as a ps4 controller. Once I use the inputmapper, it changes my controller to XBOX controller. I followed everything in your video but does'nt work for me? Any help?
*** for those like me who it didn't work, i have found the cause!! In the top left corner of input mapper, set the controller to "ps4 controller or whatever you named it", instead of default, there you go!!
You sir are a god amongst men. THIS WORKS! EDIT: kinda, but it only recognizes Top arrow for some reason but nothing else. EDIT 2: NVM it works its just be careful if you were to have an AZERTY keyboard. Use A and Z (or maybe W and Q respectively, one of both works im not sure but be weary of that.)
Does that would make the triggers (LT, RT), and right stick work? “Controller companion” app from steam can make that you describe. But I want the disabled keys to work in-game, I want to assign those 14 Keys they show on the keyboard to my controller.
@Jake Fox I'm having a serious problem. I got the controller d pad mapped out, but now I can't toggle the No Random Encounters feature, which I was really looking forward to utilizing. Any advice?
Hey pal, doesn't work for me, Somehow it still uses the controller configuration I use within the settings of the game, and it bypasses inputmapper :/ Edit : I'm actually playing on FF8 but it looks exactly the same
Thats why inputmapper should act as your keyboard, are you sure you put the settings right? If not, try rechecking the video to see if something went wrong. Best of luck!
its not just the dpad its every single button i use a completely different program ds4 windows i have no problem with anyother game on steam, this games just a waste of money imo
Refreshing having a straight to the point video instead of a bunch of clickbait long drawn out videos. THANK YOU SIR!
Thank you, get sick myself of clickbait. Thanks for the nice comment man 👍
All you need to do to enable controller /dpad is go in Steams Big Picture mode >select game >settings(cog) >properties >controller >enable Steam input
ONLY VIDEO THAT WORKED! DON'T USE DS4WINDOWS, GUYS
ds4windows has input mapper built in. I literally just did this and it works.
@@eddtru didn't work at all when I tried
this worked more than all of the other alternative programs!
Glad i could be of help!

I wonder if the new Inputmapper 1.7.7452 would also work.

Thanks, this worked perfectly!

Would this work with a switch controller?

Thanks mate, useful video.
How to escappe from battle?
Does anyone know how to do exactly this with xpadder?
Hey pal, doesn't work for me, Somehow it still uses the controller configuration I use within the settings of the game, and it bypasses inputmapper :/
Edit : I'm actually playing on FF8 but it looks exactly the same
I dont know how it would work for ff8, i simply found a way for ff7 and made a video about it 🤔
not working (everything is set ok)
No luck unfortunately. With InputMapper turned on, it won't recognize the keyboard or the controller.
It worked for me
Did everything exactly the same as in the video but when going ingame I am not able to use the D-PAD, everything else works . Any help ?
H0wzer download ds4 see if that helps
@@zaberman18 Tried both.....no go.
did not work for me. It still uses analog stick.
Also, the game doesn't even recognize L2/R2 or Start/Select (or share/options as they are now called)
PS1 controllers didn't have an L2/R2 so the game wouldn't recognise them.
those buttons didn't exist during VII's time.. so of COURSE it won't work for VII.. : /
didnt work for me, ff7 seems intent on making my use the 'joystick' ......phrasing.

@@mar990 keyboard switched fine, joystick/d-pad remained
So I have to use a keyboard-to-gamepad mapper... that sucks. Thanks for the video, though. Was quite helpful.
Stop being a pu-
I apologize if I have somehow offended or affected you.
Great alternative 👍
whaaaaat....you need to download a program just to make the PS4 controller work on FF7? Wack, why can't i just plug n play?
Thank Square Enix for the incredible port
didnt work.
thanks for this
Super glad i was of some help :D
its not just the dpad its every single button i use a completely different program ds4 windows i have no problem with anyother game on steam, this games just a waste of money imo
This game is such a waste of money, this is why I steal shit. Just run a PS1 emulator and DS4 and boom. Done.
thanks man
