PS4 Pad Issues on PC

Post » Sun Oct 30, 2016 4:14 am

I play on PC but prefer to play Skyrim using my PS4 controller, largely because I played it for years on the PS3 before getting a new computer and also because I don't use archery much so feel like a pad gives you better control in hand to hand.



Last night I started the game with my controller plugged in and configured it and it was working fine. Today when I go to play the game with it the buttons are all messed up:-



- Triangle sheathes and unsheathes weapons when it should be Square


- Square is the interact/pickup button when it should be X


- X is the jump button when it should be Triangle


- Circle is the skills/magic/items/map menu button which is correct



The trouble is I can't access the Options menu to change this because pressing the Options button on the PS4 pad now does nothing and if I unplug it and press escape then obviously this will only allow me to configure the keyboard bindings not the joypad ones.



So far I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling skyrim and restarting my computer to no avail. Is there a file that I can delete to reset these settings or something along those lines? Is anyone else having issues with this?



I knew I could count on Bethesda to grab their cash and butcher this game with a minor graphics update. :brokencomputer:
