DFGT Disconnection problem and ds4 authentication.
Posted: Fri Oct 28, 2016 12:43 am
Hi, first thank you for Gimx 6 and support of new DS4. It worked in being able to start Gimx and have my DFGT to work.
But now, I have another problem, my wheel seems to lose communication after a few minutes. It seems to be more than 5 minutes but less than 10.
I checked usb power management, eveything is off. I check my connection on the cp2102 and teensy2+ and everything also seems to be good. I guess it connection were bad, it would not be working at all.
At this point, I don't know what to do.
I am running Vista on an Centrino 2 laptop. I just reformat it and reinstall all but it still do this.Maybe the computer is not fast enough?
Maybe it has something to do with the DS4 authentication?
Right now I have not install anything regarding the ds4 on the computer. When I plug it, Vista and gimx config detect it as a wireless controller. So I edit the config to change PS4 Controller for Wireless Controller, so GIMX would detect it. IS it ok? Do I have to install something to have the computer recognize it as a PS4 controller? Could it explains why I have the disconnecting after a few minutes behavior?
Also, Each time I start using GIMX, it seems it re-detect the controller and reintall the drivers everytime. And While I am playing I see a windows asking me to restart the computer. I usually ignore this window and keep playing, until the wheel disconnect. Do you think it is because of that that it disconnect?
The usb cable I use for the controller is the one I got with it and it seems to work fine to charge the controller so I don't think it is defective.
If only there was somw kind of logs, but it only stop working.
Oh and also, when it disconnect, the wheel usually start working again after 1 or 2 minutes.
