I found this vid while looking for a solution for Yakuza Like a Dragon what worked for me changing the controller from "Use default" to "Enable steam input" Disabling didn't work for me. Cheers for the vid mate.
Thank you for this! When I disabled the controller wasn't recognised and then switched it to enabled steam input, works fine, the correct prompts appear!
well, by disabling steam input the game is interpreting the controller for what it is -- and if the game recognises ps controllers you will get ps button prompts.... but you are also disabling steam input which imo is bad - steam input offers amazing features. This needs to be fixed in steam input where you can choose to send the inputs as a ps controller if you choose to.
Thank you! this has been a issue for me for years while trying to use a PS5 controller on my PC. Now I can play APEX with PS layout on Steam instead of using EA Origin
Thanks! This was really bugging me, It's important to note that this should be done only on games that have native controller support, and the game needs to be restarted
@@darioca1566 unfortunately not. It seems the problem is there is only a small percentage of games that actually support ps5 button layouts on steam. So this video will only work with those games that actually support it
I really wish we could force PS buttons even without a PS controller. I'm playing God of War on a windows handheld but I'm way more used to PS buttons. The handheld makes the buttons act as an Xbox controller by default. Some games I can mod in the buttons with a texture swap but haven't found anything for God of War.
@@DSBCode It is when you also play a lot of Nintendo games where the buttons are the same but swapped. I always have that half a second doubt where I have to think if they are swapped or not. In a game that has quick time events it's really annoying. When I can use PS buttons I don't need to think of that.
@@MightGuySevereLeafHurricane No. beside finding mods it doesn't seem possible. There are programs that will take a Playstation controller input and emulate a 360 controller but nothing for the other way around.
This will only work on games that support Playstation controllers natively. Games that only support XInput and Steam Input won't detect your controller if you turn Steam Input off.
I'm still trying to figure out how to make windows recognize the controller as a PlayStation controller. Everything works, but this isn't a solution because its not recognizing as PlayStation
the description is wild to me, because the texas chainsaw massacre game has released on the playstation store, and the icons for the prompts do exist. are they just not in the files of the pc release build?
My controller doesn't work when i do that any fix?...i really wanna play Spiderman using a PlayStation controller where the game shows PlayStation prompts. Note: I am plugged in
@@rayyanismael7735 tried changing steam input and controller stopped working ....fed up and now playing with a knock off xbox controller lol....so yeah no fix
you can skip those dev logo/loading screens btw. its different for most games but you can put some kind of -dev command in the startup line of steam games
Not working for me. For some reason the game started with ps5 prompts but after a remote play session with a ps4 friend it stopped showing ps5 buttons.
This doesn't work for me, as soon as I click disable steam imput sure it stops the Xbox controller buttons popping up but my PlayStation controller stops responding at all can't use the controller. So yeah it's not helpful for me.
Im confused with something. Guilty gear strive for example, says it can run with Playstation dualshock controller etc. I've tried so many methods to change it to a playstation prompt. And i know it can because the game is for playstation too! Is this one of those cases where it's one of those games that can't? Because when i booted the game it said it could but because of my settings it changed to xbox?
ive tried this on Sekiro it's still not working for me. Disable steam input stops the controller from working, i'm really stuck, would appreciate some help if anyone can assist
Unfortunately that means the game doesn't have Playstation buttons. However for Sekiro in particular there is a mod for that www.nexusmods.com/sekiro/mods/849?tab=files
@@PartyMemebers Not totally true. Doing this same thing with RDO makes the Dualsense not work at all, but it *does* have Playstation button prompts. My buddy has them working fine. I've never been able to get it to work consistently.
I tried this i am plugged in. The controller works but i cant control the camera it just spins. But when i push L2 it will turn the camera the other way. Any solutions to that?
I'm trying to play fallout 4, and it won't work. I have ps4 controller support enabled and steam input disabled. Does it work for ps4 controllers or just ps5?
When I select the disable, ps5 controller won't work anymore in the game I am trying -- Madden 24. I can either play with PS5 and have Xbox or have PS5 buttons showing and it won't work. Anyone help??? EDIT: This has to be plugged in -- it won't work on Bluetooth?
after watching 423849238438483 tutorials NONE of them work in yakuza games. literally. whats the point of having ps4 controllers when you see xbox buttons, makes 0 sense
I’m using geforce now on backbone. You dont have native access to steam. Only steam via geforce now. Trying to figure out how to switch xbox prompts to match my ps backbone layout. Any ideas?
Wow truly the only straight forward person on the internet for this answer, thank you sir.
Very appreciated, this has foiled me for hours. I’m glad I found this guide before giving up.
That only works with games that fully support playstation controllers. If you do that on games that don't support it, the controller won't work.
so straight forward and easy. been looking for all solutions and this worked. thank you!
thank you !!!! I searched for it so long you made my day

I just did this on RDR2 and it worked!!!! thank you!!!! ❤
the problem with this is that you lose rumble support with that
Thanks! This was really bugging me, It's important to note that this should be done only on games that have native controller support, and the game needs to be restarted
Tried that, just disabled the ability to use a controller.
Thank you, Merry Christmas!
duuuude, I was looking for mods, trying to make it work with some other pad steam options and that was it ?! shiiit
THANK YOU
when i disable this in game properties my ps5 controller wont work at all on the game. any idea why this is happening?

im using a xbox controller, can i change it so the buttons show ps controlls too?
but what if i have a generic controller for pc and not a ps one (looks and works like an ps3 controller) and i want playstation prompts instead
Not all hero's wear capes! Nice one
Do you know if this works for a old game like gta 5?
I love this video now, thank you
cant get it to work with diablo 4 nor like a dragon this way, my controller wont even be able to do anything ingame for some reason
It worked! I liked, subed and leaving this comment
not working if you use your ps4 controler with SCP toolkit program

You are a scholar and a legend.
It works on red dead but it also shows keyboard. So when i let go it goes back to keyboard & when i press it goes to playstation. Why
Your controller is plugged in. How about wirelessly
