2 ideas: Auto-profile windows notification & Dualsense Adaptive Trigger basic support

[ParanormalBanana]

Hi! I've been using DS4Windows for a while and noticed I always have to guess if my auto-profiles have been applied, as there aren't any notifications for it. i'd like a toaster notification when a profile has been auto applied based on an app, would be really handy.

A new feature I've been thinking about is the ability to remap Adaptive triggers motors from the dualsense controller to vibration functions from games. I think it would be an easy implementation if the adaptive triggers are actually useable, and it would really be welcome, as mostly, controllers vibrate when the gaming gets intense, so how better to convey this intensity than by stiffening up the triggers? There could be a release of the trigger at a certain amount of force to prevent strain.

The first request would be fairly easy to add as an option. I do not use the Auto Profile system so it is not a priority to me.

The adaptive trigger request is a much harder problem. I never got around to coming up with an idea for adding device specific properties for profiles which would be needed for this. Also, I do not think having extra trigger modes in the mapper would be all that useful. The adaptive triggers would only really be useful when they depend on game context and respond to what is happening in game. That is obviously not possible when targetting a virtual Xbox 360 or DS4. Going the custom mod per game route might work for some select games but it is a lot of extra work and will likely break over time; DSX has proven how bad that approach can be.

This option is actually working, at least for me. But runned exe must be in focus, when you switch to other applications, ds4w quicky starting again. Even if you switched to ds4w itself.

You selected none for controller 1 profile? I selected none and turn off ds4w.

I tried with none, but emulated xbox 360 controller still showing on joy.cpl

Tried selecting spiderman exe since it has support for adaptive triggers. But once the game starts, recongnize the dualsense but the emulated 360 controller too, so I have double input issue.

Yes, selected none. Here is my current settings:

Thanks. Will try again.

Tried again but no luck. Games keeps getting double input issue. Tried with other game too, and the same. Using latest ds4w.
