Hogwarts legacy already has native support on epic games. So when using dsx do i have to use the hidhide driver

dire birch
#

Only if you intend on using an emulation mode, but since the virtual Dualsense mode is the one without Audio as things are as of today, you'd lose the Haptic Feedback (only DS feature the PC port supports) so wouldn't be worth it

#

Once virtual Dualsense with Audio gets released though, you'll likely want to use it with BT Audio to get wireless native Haptics 🙂

#

The native support on epic games Is just as shitty as on steam
So i want to play the game with dsx to enhance gameplay
How do i do it properly

dire birch
#

You'd have to use an emulation mode so there is no conflict between data sent by the game and data sent by DSX

#

But once again, this would make you lose native wired haptic feedback as things are right now

#

So it's a compromise either way

crisp rose
#

How do i solve this

dire birch
#

You don't for now

#

Just play in Native mode and wired to get haptics

#

Or use an emulation mode so you can add Adaptive Triggers you'll have to set up yourself but this won't feel as good as a dynamic Adaptive Triggers support like good implementations or DSX mods can provide

crisp rose
#

This is the only game im having problems with
Playing with dsx on other games never had problems
I heard that this game has less haptics and adaptive trigger support on pc

crisp rose
dire birch
#

I've just told you the game only supports Haptics

#

So you can't have something it doesn't provide (namely native Adaptive Triggers effects)

dire birch

#

Sorry for mentioning the triggers
I knew that there isnt any
I was talking about the feedbacks

dire birch
#

Hogwarts on PC is a low effort port when it comes to Dualsense, that's just how it is

crisp rose
#

Yeahh true

#

Its okayy I'll just use the native mode with wired

dire birch
#

Hopefully someone finally makes a DSX Mod for the game to bring feature parity with the PS5 version

#

Or almost feature parity since PS5 also has Gyro controlled flight

crisp rose
#

Im pretty surprised no one has done any mods for this game
I

#

Thanks for the help anyways

#

Btw the new update for the bt haptics and all is just beta version right

dire birch
#

Yes

crisp rose
#

I havent tried it yet
Hows it so far

dire birch
#

Well pretty nice and fancy for a lot of users

#

Most are expecting the vDS Audio passthrough update though, but it's already a pretty solid feature set 🙂

crisp rose
#

So we can play games with haptics and triggers without needing wire

#

Thats greatt!!!

#

Can u help me with the audio to haptics mode

#

I dont know how to use cuz i dont understand it

dire birch
#

It captures whatever is played in your system audio device (say your stereo headphones or a set of speakers)

#

And routes that capture into the Dualsense Speaker and/or its Haptics coils

crisp rose
#

The sound source on the mode is speakers(dualsense wireless controller)
So how does this work

dire birch
#

So if that's something you want, just need to make sure to select the correct audio source device (if using the old Audio to Haptics that works wired only - the one in Haptics section of Haptics | Rumble) and route to the proper channels; or just let it be auto selected (if using the BT Audio section) and select what you want it to do

dire birch
#

Select the relevant source

#

You don't use your controller speaker as your main system audio output I assume, so select the one you do use

crisp rose
#

The other ones are my laptops speakers
But if i enable that then sounds come out from my controller

dire birch
#

That's the point of the feature if you want it to

#

But you don't have to set it up to have audio coming out of your controller, it's all optional

crisp rose
#

How do i disable that

dire birch
#

Depends which mode you're using

#

If Audio to Haptics in the Haptics section of Haptics | Rumble, then look for channel routing and enable/disable what you want/don't want

#

If System Audio Capture in BT Audio section there, then toggle Speaker/Headset off

#

hello

#

im playing fallout 76 currently and i want to know why i cant get the vibrations when i emulate ds5 to xbox controller

dire birch
#

Hello, that would most likely be because you may have overlooked rumble pass through in Virtual controller or to enable Rumble in the haptics rumble page

crisp rose
#

i already enable both of the options

dire birch
#

Then maybe something else is preventing it from getting rumble

#

Do you have the Haptics|Rumble page set to rumble or are you in another tab ?

crisp rose
#

its in rumble

#

lemme have a quick check again

dire birch
#

Can you check in Live Data Feed whether it's actually getting Rumble data or not ?

#

(in Virtual Controller)

crisp rose
#

how to check

#

ohh wait ive got it

dire birch
#

In Virtual Controllers tab

crisp rose
#

its supposed to be like this right

dire birch
#

Yep

#

And you can expand the Live Data Feed card to read what the virtual controller is fed

crisp rose
#

i need to be playing the game is it to get the entries

dire birch
#

Of course

#

Or use anything that will send data to the virtual controller

#

So a testing website would do as well

crisp rose
#

okay just a minute

dire birch
#

Take your time, better not to rush for these things

crisp rose
#

if im not mistaken there was an option to test rumble on dsx right

dire birch
#

No ?

crisp rose
#

really

#

cuz i remember doing it

#

maybe it was on anothe rsoftware

dire birch
#

Then you would have used a third party website/software in conjunction I guess

crisp rose
#

ive found few websites to test but there is no option to test rumble

#

and ive not been getting any entries

dire birch
#

Then just test in game I guess ?

crisp rose
#

its working now

#

thank you

dire birch
#

Awesome 🙂

crisp rose
#

but now the inputs are annoying me

#

double input issue

dire birch
#

For that you need HidHide installed, properly configured (all toggles in DSX's HidHide tab enabled except the Inverse Application Cloaking) and if it's already configured properly, you may have switched emumation mode/connected your controller whilst the game was already running so you can try the Fix Double Input button 🙂

crisp rose
#

but i wont get any rumble right

dire birch
#

If the game sends rumble data to the emulated controller, you should get

crisp rose
#

i remember you saying that if you have hidhide installed i would sacrifice something

#

is it for haptics or normal rumble mode

dire birch
#

Doubt I ever said anything like that

#

HidHide is necessary for DSX to work properly when using any emulation mode

crisp rose
#

then what did u mean when u said this

#

cuz i dont understand

dire birch
#

What I meant by this is that if you wanted have Haptic Feedback from games, as things are currently you need to use DSX's Native mode and be wired because the emulated Dualsense mode doesn't have Audio channels attached to it (= "vDS Audioless" as we refer to it usually)

#

Native mode implies HidHide will not be hiding your physical controller to other softwares (games) included

#

Whereas for emulation modes, you need HidHide hiding your physical controller to other softwares otherwise you can get that double input issue in some games (because a game seeing both the physical and the virtual controller will receive inputs from both, hence the double input problem)

crisp rose
#

hey man

#

im currently playing cyberpunk and there is a mod available on dsx for the game

#

can u tell me what is the mod for and how do i install it

dire birch
#

It offers customizable Adaptive Triggers and LED effects, follow instructions on Nexus regarding the installation

crisp rose
#

does the game offer haptics

dire birch
#

Yes, along with Speaker FX, but no wireless Rumble or Rumble Fallback

crisp rose
#

does it come with the mods or the base game already has haptics???
