Hi Guys,
Hopefully someone can help me with this problem, I have searched but not found anything similar, details as below, thanks!
Gimx Version 5.4
OS: Windows 7 - 64bit
DIY USB adapter (dummies tutorial) - CP2102 and Teensy 2.0
Console: PS4
Just trying to get mouse and keyboard to work before I try DFGT, getting the following log;
option -l with value `log.txt'
option -c with value `Dualshock4.xml'
option -p with value `COM4'
status flag is set
subpos flag is set
force_updates flag is set
Detected USB adaptor: DS4
using default refresh period: 10.00ms
warning: can't open macro directory C:\Users\Paul\AppData\Roaming//gimx//macros/0 1448222331. 946544, lstick x (3), lstick y (-3), rstick x (-2), rstick y (-2)
No response from WASD or arrow keys etc. Tried swapping tx/rx but won't pick up the DS4 then so I think they are the right way round at the moment. Any help or ideas would be great! I'm sure I probably have missed something or done something stupid!
Thanks guys

Hi,
Did you press the PS button?
The default Dualshock4.xml config has no mapped keys. I suggest you to try any of the FPS configs.

Re: DIY USB Problem
Thanks Matlo.
That was it, I loaded up an FPS config as you suggested, pushed PS button and works perfectly.
Thanks for your help and all your hard work creating and supporting GIMX! I'm looking forward to setting up my DFGT!
Cheers!

Re: DIY USB Problem
To get the FFB working you'll have to load the EMUG29PS4 firmware into the Teensy 2.0.
There's a default config for the DFGT, it's called LogitechDrivingForceGT_G29.xml.
You can download it using the "Help>Get configs" too in gimx-launcher.

Re: DIY USB Problem
Thanks Matlo,
I finally got a chance to try that last night, FFB worked great!
Only problem I found was random disconnects that I see some other users have also experienced.
I have tried swapping tx/rx, using different cables, checked connections to UART etc. but it still seems to persist. Tonight I will try to dual boot install Ubuntu 14.04 and see if I can get a more stable connection as I have read some users have had better results with Ubuntu.
I will let you know how it goes, thanks again for your assistance and support!

Re: DIY USB Problem
Tested last night for about 4 hours on Ubuntu (loaded as a dual boot to windows 7), no disconnects. Worked flawlessly
It might be the case that I need to use a FT232RL-based adapter to make it work on Windows as you mentioned in a previous thread.
I will stick with Ubuntu I think, I'm using quite an old laptop so Ubuntu is much faster then the windows 7! Seems an easier setup with Ubuntu aswell.
Thanks again Matlo!
