I'm new to all this. I downloaded pretty much the entirety of the Legacy of Kain series as the prices were literally $0.99 for each game. Strangely enough, Soul Reaver worked but had a problem. Left stick acted as if it was being pushed diagonally up and left. Fortunately, this was fixed by a simple download of a .dll file. Other than that, the game seemed to work natively with my DS4 controller.

Soul Reaver 2 however, Has a problem. And I doubt the same .dll file will work.

So I downloaded DS4Windows and, while the touchpad on it works like a mouse and can click things on the menu, the actual buttons and analog stick don't work at all. Is there a solution to this? Or are the LoK games just crappy when it comes to controller support on PC?

PS. I'm sure this shouldn't go into the General Discussion area but I'd like an answer quickly. Not an answer weeks or months from now. Considering how old this game is i wouldn't be surprised if the forums were dead. Also, this is a question regarding the series as a whole. not just one specifc game i guess

It's fine for the general discussion. I usually use XPadder or AntiMicro (controller to keyboard & mouse emulator). You can fully reprogram functions on both:-
