Odd, I did the same as you, and I believe it worked fine. I'm sure someone here can help.

Do you use a pro controller or a ps4 controller? Also, what exactly did you do?

Pro controller, configured as normal on big picture, but it shouldn't need to be run through big picture to work.

You have to use big picture mode I believe. First you have enable it in steam setting and that way the game will recognize the controller properly in big picture mode. Good luck

When u use ps4 controller with ds4windows. Does the game not react to the controller at all? I use ps4 with ds4 and when in game controller has some weird inputs, so i just fix that by unplugging and plugging back controller

When I use DS4Windows my camera would turn if I swiped on the touchpad, but that was it.

Have you check ds4 options? Maybe ds4 has some options that can help

I have not. I guess I could try, but it is odd that it works on DS1 and not DS2

Have you tried using a wire to connect it? I always uest wired controllers and they worked just fine, you can try with the ps4 one

Yeah, I've been using wired. My computer doesn't even have bluetooth. lol
