Any get DS4Windows working with Disgaea?
I was super excited to get my Dualshock 4 today but I'm a bit disappointed DS4Windows and Disgaea won't play nice. Has anyone found a fix for this?

Game apparently uses DirectInput does it not? You should be able to use the DS4 vanilla without it then since it's a DI controller.

That does seem to work actually, though I have to remap the buttons a little.
It is bothersome though to have to close DS4Windows, just to play Disgaea, expecially since I'm always using Big Picture Mode...
I've been using my DualShock4 controller for well over a year now, and not once have I ever touched any of those tools and programs.
Yet to see a single game it hasn't worked flawless on.

Both my DS3 and DS4 work flawlessly with SCP driver

I can think of a couple of games that have Xinput only controller support, and having the touchpad work as a mouse is super nice. And of course lightbar customization is pretty cool.

With the newest one? Where you can customize the lightbar and use the trackpad as a mouse?
The only real drawback I find to SCP is not having multiple profiles. I REALLY like being able to swap profiles for different games and programs. It's handy as hell for watching Netflix in Microsoft's ♥♥♥♥♥♥ Edge browser (since Netflix doesn't work in Firefox)

I should mention I'm on Windows 10. The default drivers for the controller that 10 installs seem pretty bad. Like I went to calibrate it in the Windows controller calibration tool and found things kinda unresponsive... (by that I mean in the test creen when I push stuff nothing happens)

I'm not sure if you can customize those things, I never really tried. But yes it's the newest one, now being developed by nefarious. I have a K400 from logitech so mouse control is no problem.

The year is 2021. I stumbled on this comment trying to get Disgaea 4 working through XBoxGamePass. This is what fixed it for me.
For every other game I've been running DS4 Windows, if you switch DS4 Windows off then Disgaea works perfectly.
