How do I use the d pad with a ps4 controller

[hypersonic078]

There's no options to play with the d pad and I was wondering if im just stupid or there's really no way to use the d pad

You need to use Steam Big Picture/ Steam Input wrapper because I believe this port only accepts XInput. You could try the Decompilation port which uses SDL and should support DualShock 4 controllers though you might need to reconfigure the controls in the settings-ini file.

The only terms i understood from that were steam big picture and dualshock 4

He means that the game might to properly support Playstation controllers, seems like it does though. I don't remember if you can use the D-Pad in this game though.

He recommends you to use Steam Input which emulates an Xbox controller, you can enable it in the Controller settings in Steam or in Big Picture Mode. In case the game doesn't support the D-Pad you can also bind the analog stick to the D-Pad.


He recommends you to use a fan port of the phone version instead since it should support your controller better, I think that version is also slightly more updated.

For legal reasons it doesn't come with the game assets, you need to copy that from your steam folder.

"How to run on Windows: Take the Data.rsdk file from your legally purchased copy of Sonic CD (2011) and place it in the same directory as the .exe file. Copy the folder videos/ from the Steam version (if you own it) into the same directory and videos will play."

If I understand it correctly you need to run RSDKv3.exe in the SW folder

I can confirm that the Steam version doesn't accept DualShock 4 inputs at all unless I enabled PlayStation 4 controller support in Steam's Controller Settings after getting a hold of my brother's DualShock 4 for repairs and testing the Steam version of Sonic CD with it. The decompilation port, however, is able to recognize DualShock 4 inputs no problem since it's using SDL2.
