Summary

As found while investigating issue #683, there is at least one PS4 controller type where mapping to Gamepad input fails. The issue is rooted in the OpenTK dependency and potentially Windows only.

How to reproduce

  • Ask @SirePi for the exact controller brand and model that reproduces the problem, but also check different PS4 style controllers for issues.
  • Run the Input Handling sample and observe joystick and gamepad input.

Workaround

  • Using the SDL backend of OpenTK by copying an SDL2.dll into the working directory is a workaround for the launcher - but not the editor, as SDL has no editor support.
  • There are third-party tools that can map any controller to an XInput device on Windows. However, this is a user workaround, not a developer workaround.

Analysis

  • Screencaps of the problem:
  • As the controller mapping is detected correctly, the issue is not caused by a missing or mismatched mapping entry in the database.
  • It could be incorrect handling or interpretation of axis / button HID device data.
