How to use a Playstation Navigation Controller with any PC game
<p>Maybe you started out playing games on consoles before jumping into PC gaming, or maybe you just don’t like lifting your finger to change from forward to backward movement with a keyboard. Whatever the reason may be, using a keyboard for character movement just might not feel as natural or as comfortable as using a controller’s analog stick. At the same time, it may also feel more natural and comfortable to aim with a mouse rather than with an analog stick. Unfortunately, this hybrid control scheme is not one that most games are willing to accommodate. So how do you get the best of both worlds?</p>
<p>On the console side, this setup is possible with devices such as the XIM4, which allow for analog movement via a Playstation Navigation Controller (“PS Nav Controller” hereafter) while aiming with a mouse at the same time. Paired with a wireless mouse with thumb shortcuts and a mouse pad on a lap desk, I found this to be a comfortable couch-gaming setup, and ever since, I’ve wanted a similar setup for PC games. Since PC games are already configured perfectly for mouse input, it wouldn’t rely on the XIM4’s calibration profiles, not to mention the enhanced graphical configuration possible with PC games. But how do you set it up?</p>
