I have a dualshock 4 controller, but windows games see it as an xbox controller.
Is there a way to force them to see the proper controller and thus show the proper input?
Any suggestion from proton to portproton to lutri is welcome

    You can try to enable Steam Input and customize the button bindings through Steam.

      this would be specifically about what the game shows rather than the bindings itself

        You can’t change what the game shows if it doesn’t have native support to show PS o Switch buttons.

            I haven’t messed around with this on Linux because it doesn’t really bother me, so I have no idea what to change or how to fix it, but it sounds like whatever is handling controller input is passing it to the game as xinput instead of dinput.
