Left input stuck (Mac + DualShock 4)

[AnonymousMuggle]

Hey, I know there's other topics related to this, but none have any solutions that have worked for me, since no one seems to have figured out how to fix this on Mac. I'm playing this on an older Mac, but the game does seem to run fine, at least on lower settings. However, I can't get the game to stop thinking that I'm pressing 'Left' on the D-pad. When I unplug my DualShock 4, then start the game, it works fine, but I really want to play with my gamepad if possible.

Does anyone know of any fixes that might help?

Thanks,

(if that helps, I know it's not the optimal gaming setup!)

Hi!
Did you manage to find a solution? I was about to begin the game and the exact same thing happens, and, as you, I saw that in Windows they found a solution, but no information on Mac+DS4 users... Maybe there are only two DS4 Mac Spec Ops players in the entire world haha

Hey fiskifus,

In the end, I just used external software to play the game. IIRC I think I used something called Joystick Mapper, mapped individual DS4 inputs to kb+m inputs, then proceeded to beat the game in one sitting :) so I didn't have to worry about setting it all up again.

edit: I went back and checked because I was interested and I actually found a blog post I made about this with all the keyboard mappings I used for Spec Ops... so *shameless self-promo* hope it helps you: http://thekantaloupe.com/2015/04/06/tutorial-use-your-dualshock-4-with-a-mac/

How do you get the joystick mapper to work dude? I'm trying to play on spec ops and it keeps spinning to the left. I mapped the best I could but still getting the spin but now when I press aim and fire I continually fires and doesn't stop even if I tap it.
