PS5 touchpad mapping

default_user

The P5Mate works well for using different controllers on the PS5, but there is one problem.

Using the 20240531 firmware, the DualSense touchpad click is mapped to the P5Mate button. However, the touchpad click is used in many games, and is needed frequently. Also, it is impossible to press the P5Mate button if you are not sitting next to the device.

Could you update the mapping like this?

Back/View button = Touchpad click
P5Mate button = Share button


Also, there are other controllers like the 8BitDo Ultimate, that have an unused face button. The Touchpad click could be mapped to the unused button too.

Thanks!

Hello,
Maybe it's possible to introduce controller button remapping feature? It seems it can be very useful
Let me share the vision
Maybe here: https://forum.beloader.com/p5mate/update.html should be a third section with "Controller button remapping" and possibility to upload a text file with the default content similar to this:

1. L1=LB
   
2. R1=RB
   
3. L2=LT
   
4. R2=RT
   
5. L3=L3
   
6. R3=R3
   
7. SQUARE=X
   
8. CROSS=A
   
9. TRIANGLE=Y
   
10. CIRCLE=B
    
11. CREATE=VIEW
    
12. OPTIONS=MENU
    
13. TOUCHPAD_CLICK=PAIR

Copy the Code

One more option for XBOX button I think should be "SHARE", it's a small new button between "VIEW" and "MENU", it was introduced in xbox series x/s and was not present in xbox one, so it's possible to reassign buttons, for example, like this:

1. CREATE=SHARE
   
2. TOUCHPAD_CLICK=VIEW

Copy the Code

But this must not add any input lag
And for now, and maybe it will be enough for most customers, switch "PAIR" and "VIEW" buttons, so "VIEW" is always a touchpad click and "PAIR" simulates "CREATE" on dualsense
It seems, touchpad click is used way more often than sharing a content
and for xbox series x/s controller, "SHARE" button can also simulate "CREATE" (a duplicate of "PAIR" button)
Besavior team and other members of this forum, what do you think?
