Steam-betan uppdaterades igår och en rad nya funktioner lades till. Det kanske mest intressanta är att Dual Shock 4 nu stöds officiellt, vilket Valve redan tidigare flaggat för. Det har såklart gått att använda handkontrollen tidigare med, men den som föredrar Sonys variant framför Microsofts (som ju är något av PC-standard) får det nu enklare att nyttja den. Under handkontrollsektionen i patch-listan finns en detaljerad beskrivning av hur det fungerar:
"Added Steam Configurator support for PS4 Dual Shock Controller. Note that this is a beta release. Enable in Big Picture settings Add/Test Controller settings.
When enabled, PS4 controllers will have access to the same sort of customisation/configuration support as Steam Controllers, including native API support. PS4 Controllers using this system can map the trackpad, gyro, buttons, etc. to keyboard, mouse, or x-input outputs and can make use of action sets, touch menus, radial menus, and so forth.
Added New Mode - Joystick Mouse. This is a joystick based mouse control useful for stick based controllers.
Added default PS4 templates.
Added software calibration for non-Steam controller based IMUs to counter for gyro drift.
Configuration Browser can now be toggled to show all available controller types rather than the default of the in-use controller type.
Configurations can now be marked as "Unique" to a specific controller. This configuration will only be applied to that controller for that user's account. By default, all controllers of a specific type will share a configuration unless marked as Unique.
Big Picture now supports PS4 controller glyphs when using Steam Configurator support."
Flera mindre grejer har också gjorts som fixar problem som varit. Kolla in hela listan på denna länk.
Är Dual Shock 4-stöd till PC viktigt för dig?
