Playstation 4 controller
I have heard that this game works well with xbox controller but I only have a playstation 4 controller. I was going to get the game but would like confirmation that it would work fine on my playstation 4 controller. What's the verdict?

Yes, as long as you use an emulator to convert the signal to XInput.

There are two main APIs for controllers: XInput and DirectInput.
  • DirectInput: Used for almost all controllers. Has been around for a while.
  • XInput: Created by Microsoft in 2006 for the Xbox 360 controller with PC games. It offers a number of extra features and input types over DirectInput.
Bastion can only recognize XInput. If you want to use something other than an Xbox 360 controller, you would use a XInput emulator. This converts a DirectInput signal to an XInput signal.

Here is a controller emulator you can use: https://code.google.com/p/x360ce/

If you download a program called DS4 Windows, you can use a ps4 controller for any game that supports 360 controllers.

If I may ask guys, off hand does anyone know which of these programs are best to do this mapping trick for PS4 controller on Mac?
Also is there a community map for the controller that I can apply through Steam available?

PLEASE no PC "Master Race" BS, lets all get along :)

Dual Boot.
Macs aren't gamer friendly. Never have been.
