The PS4 controller was fully integrated into the LumenLab, mapping the buttons the same way as the PS3 controller. The integration was completed, however the PS4 controller has two deal-breaking flaws:

  • The latency is astronomically slow. Despite following guides online on how to optimize the connection, it is too severely slow for gameplay.
  • All directions of the joy sticks, L2, and R2 have a gigantic dead zone, and skyrockets to its max value (-512, 511). This could be normalized to prevent movement bursts, but this won't fix the dead zone issue.

After extensive testing, this integration effort will be suspended until a solution is found for these issues. Releases will only include the firmware for PS3 controllers.
